Good. But that is where Acorn’s billions!!!!!!!!! come into play. BILLIONS from the stimulus package to pay for more voter fraud so these Dems can stay in power despite their destruction of their states and our nation.

Speaking as someone who now lives in Wyoming and who has heard “Governor Dave” speak on many occasions, I can tell you why Dave Freudenthal is popular in Wyoming:

The man knows something about running a business, having grown up on a farm in Wyoming. He knows stats and figures about the business environment in Wyoming and the nation off the top of his head, he knows stats and facts about the coal situation in the US, power generating consumption of coal in the US, you name it. The man’s command of facts and figures is very impressive, and then to his credit he says “These are the facts we have to deal with.”

When I say he knows facts and figures - he ain’t pulling them off some cheat sheet. No, you can run into Governor Dave on the street, ask him a question and he knows them off the top of his head. He’s fiscally conservative and backs up his talk with real action. He’s pro-gun, pro-property rights, pro-business. He’s had the balls to take on the environmentalists over wolves, which is a big issue in the west but in Wyoming especially.

Overall, he has one trait in politics which is rare: he walks his talk. You might not like his position on issue “X” exactly, but when you wake up tomorrow, his position on issue “X” hasn’t changed because someone wrote an op-ed in the Washington Post attacking him (eg, on wolves).

Look for 2010 to make 1994 look like a day at the beach.

Wisconsin Gov. Jim Doyle (D) may be in some trouble this year also. His opponent will likely be a very conservative Republican who has defied the odds and been elected repeatedly as Milwaukee County Executive.

If Scott can even substantially cut in to the lead in Milwaukee County (possibly win it, he is that popular there) he will win the State.

Wisconsin is a very weird State though, it has been leaning more Dem in the past ten years, so I won't hold my breath, but Doyle's minions have already started reelection ads touting what a great guy he is, and the Dem party is already issuing press releases every time Scott Walker speaks about anything. So they know Doyle is vulnerable.

You know if people are already trying to protect Obama and say that these results do not reflect on his leadership, these two Democrat Governors are toast in 2009. You don’t cut the legs out from under candidates by starting damage control this early unless you really think they have no chance.

Rendell’s damage is brought on by his own idiocy and arrogance and has nothing to do with Obama’s idicoy and ignorance.

They just happen to share the same party.

Fast Eddie is painting himself into a corner with the PA Budget mess. He should take credit for it and not just blame it on the hate Democrats are receiving as of late.

Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell suddenly is getting negative job ratings in both the Quinnipiac University and the Franklin & Marshall College polls -- his lowest marks in seven years.

While being tied to Fauxbama certainly hasn't helped him Fast Eddie's in trouble because of his own actions... for the 7th year in a row he has intentionally created a budget impass in order to try to force things through he wants.. and state workers haven't been paid. Prior to fast eddie this only happened 7 times in the history of the state, since Fast Eddie this has happened nearly every year.

Not to mention the state is broke, he spent like a sailor when times were good, and now that they aren't, he's trying to raise taxes to cover shortfalls etc.

He's gone to the well one too many times, and his political career in PA is over one way or another.

I can't speak for OH, but I suspect the governor there has his own mess seperate from Fauxbama as well.
