GOP should not have lost the House. With a booming economy and low unemployment people should be voting GOP. The GOP lost many Reagan Democrats (blue collar) over job outsourcing, H-1B workers, minimum wage and last, but not least lukewarm reaction to illegal immigrants and open border. Giving a person a tax break is meaningless if the Chamber of Commerce encourages illegal immigrants, H-1B workers and outsourcing jobs. Some of the GOP congress seats in rural Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina that should have been shoe ins were lost. Don't blame the economical nationalists FR, we have been screaming from the rooftops that blue collar workers in the GOP ranks have been disgruntle and restless for a long time over the free trade globalist approach of GWB and that it eventually will have political consequences. What CAFTA/expanded H-1B/tax breaks for outsourcing did to the GOP is what the Assault Rifle Ban did to the Dems when the respective Presidents twisted the arms of Congressmen to vote against the wishes of their districts. The votes came back to unseat them. The GOP lost control of the House, but corporate America got what they wanted. So was it worth it country club freepers???

"GOP should not have lost the House"

Who says we have? Hugh Hewitt's source says we hold the House by 3. We're picking up a couple unexpected seats like the K. Harris seat.

..."GOP should not have lost the House.....

What time is it? I guess I missed something. Someone let me know if I am late in knowing the election results. I didn't realize I was attending a funeral when I logged in to FR tonite.

Country Club Freepers? Daaamn! The democrats are a bunch of thieves and liars. Acorn,, Move on .org, ACLU etc and so forth. Power is what they want no matter how they have to get it. Now that they've done their best to destroy the electorial process and the courts system and the very soul of this country, what do they propose to do to fix what they've destroyed? Even an animal knows not to shit where it lives.
I'd rather be dead than be called a democrat
