The Blue Dogs need to be exposed as socialist fakes, immediately. I already know Webb is - his "victory rally", in which he said he joined the Democrats not just because of Iraq, but also because of agreeing with their "principles" was instructive.

Ping!

The problem is the Democrats are controlled by rabid Leftists. Blue Dog Democrats are there for one reason - to give the Democrats' Left camouflage and a patina of moderate respectability. Let no one be fooled - the Democratic moderates do NOT set the direction for the Democrats today.

Going from Webb getting elected to Hillary Clinton getting elected is quite the stretch.

This does not compute at all. Wishful thinking.

I can see that over the course of the next 2 years, I am probably going to post this similar post reply a couple dozen times.

First, Americans will see that the Dims are worse than Pubbies in being the 'culture of corruption' party. Second, the changes during the 'first 100 hours' the new Dim congress is promising will change nothing! Third, Americans will see that the Dims don't have and never did have a plan to fix anything. Fourth, Hitery will not get the Dim nod to run for President. Fifth, Blue Dog Dims will swing back again to vote for the Pubbies.

How embarassing it is to have the rest of the world learn we call some of the Dims the Blue Dogs (and Blue Pups).

You all must think we're complete idiots.

[Mad Dawg]

Your Madness:

This is about the success of the Dims and the media in clouding the mind of the electorate. I offer two examples:

(1)
“For me, it was the war,” said Sandy Miller, a 56-year-old nurse, explaining her switch in support. “I just don’t think we should be over there in Iraq. They should be taking care of their own business.

Sandy has forgotten that Iraq is part of the so-called "War on Terror". It's not "their own business", it's the business of people in the UK and the US who would like to think that they can go on a cruise ship or an airpplane without some Islamo-wacko committing mayhem thereon.

(2)
Besides, she agrees with the Democrats rather than her church on the need for federal funding of stem cell research. “I’ve got a cousin with Parkinson’s disease,” she said.

Okay, class, repeat after me:

EMBRYONIC stem cell research.

The Dims and the newsies don't want people to know that there is useful work going on with stem cells which are not Embryonic stem cells. They don't want people to make the distinction. For people interested in the truth and in a free people making responsible decisions, the distinction is critical. For people interested in power at any cost and perfectly willing to mislead people if that will help them control people, the distinction is perilous. So they act as though there is no distinction. Simply put, they lie, glibly, eagerly, habitually. They lie so that they can control and dominate.

Conservatives have got to define the message clearly in their own heads, and then stick to it. They've got to break the eleventh commandment (Thou shalt not speak ill of a fellow Republican) and be clear about what distinguishes them from RINOs like McCain. And we've got to find some way to exploit the decline of the Dinosaur media and break their control over how the questions are posed to the electorate.

It ain't gonna be pretty, and it may be impossible. There seems to be a suicidal tendency in prosperous societies with representative governments. We try to kill our young and our aged and infirm, and now we're trying to cripple our ability to defend ourselves.

"The Blue Dogs need to be exposed as socialist fakes, immediately."

Ivan, what was wrong with the term "sheeple?" Same follow-the-follower crowd.

Terry McAuliffe, former chairman of the Democratic national committee, is already preparing for Hillary Clinton’s likely presidential run. He believes the midterm results represent a potentially historic shift for his party.

“It was a ‘throw the Republicans out’ election. Some people voted for us reluctantly but we have a terrific opportunity to get back the Reagan Democrats we lost in the 1980s,” he said.

Just one problem, Terry .. the candidates that you all ran as conservatives and as pro life will have to come through on their word and vote against your party to live up to their promises

Or will the nags from NOW and NARL and all the commie ANSWER folks continue to keep their mouths shut like they did in the past election???

The Reagan Democrats you lost in the 1980s was because of your commie loving, socialist spending, anti-military, President Jimmy Carter

Oh and one more thing .. those investigations into faulty intelligence ???

The Senate already did that and the report is out

Though I'm sure that won't stop y'all from grandstanding in the public eye

[spall]

This "Blue Dog" talk reeks of the same "New Kind of Democrat" lie Bill peddled during '92.

[hnj_00]

piaps...the bee-itch will target (use) everyone and anyone to help her gain power!!!!

she will preach tolerance and bi-partisanship and a centerist view right up to the night of the elctions....the next morning if she wins (God help us)...the public better know the tenants of the communist manifesto!!!!

[right-wingin_It]

I think, after the media's victory in the mid-term elections, they will now have the confidence to hype Hillary the greatest of heights for '08. Of course, she had the media support long ago, but I think the "2006 propoganda experiment" has emboldend all corners of the MSM to get behind her and "make it happen."

[bushfamfan]

The "Blue Dogs" are only disguising themselves as that because they would never get elected in states that vote that way and the Demonrats are looking at power so they get their phonies to run as such in the conservative leaning states and then they come to Congress and give liberalism lefties all the power and votes.

[GregH]

The liberal Dems dont care about their blue dogs as they are just there for the party to win the majority. The liberal Dems are smart enough to realise this, and the blue dog Dems realise their agenda is not important on the party.
On the other hand we Conservative Repubs seem to be causitic on the moderate Republicans and pour vitriol on them even though they are a minority and wont influence the agenda of the party. Republicans used to be good at strategy and alliance building, however they seem have to lost the ability to understand how politics works.

As a close friend of Bill Clinton, [McAuliffe] was at the president’s side during the Monica Lewinsky scandal.

Eeewww.

[AZLiberty]

“She has only just got through this campaign,” said McAuliffe. “The last thing she wants to do is to think about the next one.”

Yeah, right.

[AZLiberty]

At her heels is Obama, 45, the African-American senator for Illinois who has been in Congress for only two years. He has emerged to become Clinton’s top challenger on the back of a dazzling speech to the 2004 Democratic convention, an appearance on Oprah Winfrey’s television show and a bestselling book, The Audacity of Hope, which argues for replacing “the endless clash of armies” with a politics rooted in “faith and inclusiveness”.

That might work if the "faith" is Islam, and "inclusiveness" means everybody is included in Islam. Otherwise, the nature of Islam makes "the endless clash of armies", well, endless.

[OldPossum]

"At Webb’s headquarters in Arlington, jubilant campaign volunteers made it clear they were “conservative” Democrats first and foremost. Some had voted Republican before, such as Chris Kervorkian, 36, who worked for McCain’s Republican presidential nomination in 2000.

“I own a small business and I don’t want the government down my throat,” he said. “Big government doesn’t work.”

Well, I have news for you, Mr. Kervorkian, you just have voted to put in power the party of big government. Now, kindly place yourself in the right position since you can now expect the insertion of big government into your business and other affairs.

By the way, one does wonder whether Mr. Kervorkian may be related to someone else who specializes in suicide.

If Republicans continue to stumble, they may well elect that b***h.
