I share your concerns. That’s the reason I wrote the posts.
wait a minute. Some of these folks lead by 7-12 points, and they’re “hanging on by the skin of their teeth.” Granted it’s going to be a tough year, but I think there’s a bit of hyperbole going on here.
This one issue alone should propel Republicans to a landslide.
This is a reason why Republicans will win. Democrats are responsible for these sky-high oil prices.
What can you say? I’m 57. This country will withstand anything, but look how long we’ve suffered from the aftermath of Carter and Clinton. I don’t know if I can wait until 2012 for this to turn around...Thinking about all this makes me depressed....I think I’m going to go shoot myself...
Either one will be a disaster for America.
Unfortunately, McCain is not much better.
The one saving grace in this article is that it’s written by Dick “Nearly Always Wrong” Morris.
People aren’t paying attention yet.
When obama gets on the national podium, flutters his Marxist ears, and promises to destroy American families, the American military and the American economy, I expect a sea-shift in opinion against the rat party.
>> We should be thankful that there is still time to turn this around
Yeah, but they’d better hurry!
Maybe they can quickly gin up and pass another bloated corporate welfare farm bill! Slapping their overstrapped constituents in the teeth for the benefit of slackers and wealthy farmers ought to be good for a few votes, don’t you think?
No, with the R’s “It’s All About Money” — I pass bills for you, you give me money, I keep my seat. Representing those who voted for them? Nah, that’s old school. Having principles, and standing by them? Archaic. Standing up for what you believe? Can’t help you there, if I rock the boat my campaign fund will suffer!
The country our forefathers worked so hard to build could do worse than to have EVERY SINGLE mother’s child in Congress come down with a terminal disease tomorrow. A couple dozen good men and women don’t deserve that, but the HUNDREDS of the rest of those barnacle-encrusted nest-featherers DO. Sorry for the mean spirit, but that’s my opinion. Congress — the lot of them — exude the unmistakeable stench of “soft” corruption, THROUGHOUT. Cleaning the cesspool before it becomes HARD ENTRENCHED corruption (can you say “carbon credits?”) would be a good thing for the country.
Remember, Dick Morris works for the family - - specifically, Obama’s 1st cousin, Kenyan strongman, Raila Odinga.
Right. Getting old and suffer from CRS Syndrome.
It doesn’t even have to be sixty Dem votes. Add what the Dems get to the liberal Republicans and we’re looking at a filibuster-proof majority for all manner of liberal mischief.
Can they? Yes. Will they? No. The public blames the President and his party for the economy, and I’m sure the MSM will be only too willing to assist them in that conclusion.
I knew I would find this reply about Morris. My sentiments exactly!
It certainly is discouraging looking right now. If I had my way, I would rather retake Congress and have McCain lose. I don’t think Obama could do much damage with a strong Republican congress and I’m afraid that a Democrat congress could do a lot of damage with McCain signing almost everything they do. But it looks like I may get the opposite of what I want. Well, we’ll just have to hope and pray that McCain does a better job than I fear he will. He’s not a consistent person so who knows, maybe he’ll turn right once he’s in office.
I fear you are right.
Yup, I do believe you are right. Before primary season started, he declared that was the only scenario in which the GOP had a chance.
He even wrote a book called something like Condi vs. Hillary didnt he?
Well, let's see. Dick all but guaranteed Rudy Giuliani would be the Republican nominee for President. He wrote a book indicating only Condelezza Rice could stop Hillary from becoming President. Not too great a track record.
And, so bad that the House might be Republican again by 2010.
Rasmusson was right when he predicted the GOP Congressional losses 2 years ago. Let's face it, Republicans stand for very little today and are in many instances indistinguishable from the Dems.
