How is it Chavez wins every time, by such a large margin?

Oops, sorry, off topic!

They'll probably have the same people who registered voters for ACORN doing the polling for the census...and adding in tens of thousands of non-existent names to tilt more seats to urban areas and reliably Democratic states. The Evil Party knows what is at stake, and that most Americans are oblivious.

The Venezuelazation of America continues.

Hey, we should just let it happen. You know, like the voter fraud, the illegal immigration, Obama not having to produce proof of birth, Sandy Berger walking out of the National Archives with classified stuff, Al Franken and Acorn making up votes to steal a Senate seat, and on and on. Our oxymoronic “Republican leadership” should just let it happen. Again.

They’ve got nobody to blame but themselves. Unfortunately, we have to pay the price for their ineptness and lack of leadership.

If there is anyone I’d like to get in a 3X3 room and smack the..you know..The integrity of our system is the only thing still holding it together, when you bring in partisan politics, it de-legitimizes the whole SYSTEM!

“If you think redistricting is always partisan and political which it is… it’s going to be on steroids this time.”

Legal challenges to this must be filed NOW!

Rahm, you had better remember the old Chilean saying, “A fish dies by his mouth”!

Yeah, they tell all of us that ‘we can’t have that attitude’, that ‘we have to get involved’. So we get involved, work for these clowns to get elected, and then they sell us down the river, and puss out at the slightest confrontation with a more committed enemy. In California, we vote, and then some commie judge rules our vote ‘unconstitutional’ and the vote meant nothing.

Somebody named it Barrymandering.

It's pretty much an end run around him though, he's just the figgur head for now.

I like the word "could" in the title.

No irony there, it's designed to keep democrats "elected."

Could favor Dems? What possible other reason could there be for the grab?

Porkulus, census takeover, fairness doctrine, assault weapons/gun/ammo ban, internet censorship, illegal amnesty all before the 2010 elections.

Scary as hell, probably as serious as happened since the beginning.

If all this happens we will never see another party win an election, period.
