this should elect more democrats

divide and conquer is the only way they can win

Right now, the Blue Dog Democrats are doing the job the Republicans can't. They are the ones giving Obama acid reflux.

A unity of the Blue Dogs and the Tea Party could more closely resemble the Reagan coalition than anything we've seen since GHWB ran.

Don’t get fooled by the Blue Dogs. Inside every one of them (my rep. is one) is a Yellow RAT yearning to get out.

The so-called "Blue Dogs" are a joke.

They are nothing less or more than just slightly less Democrats.

No conservative should be pushing for any type of coalition with this gang of liberals, and yes, they are nothing more than liberals.

Our approach should be one of replacing the Blue Dogs with actual conservatives, NOT joining forces with them.

the tea party does seem to be having more influence on the blue dogs than on the GOP, in terms of making men look over their shoulders at their sinking poll numbers

Ive heard radical libs and RINOs slam Sarah Palin, but not blue dogs?

Course some of them “blue dog” democrats instead turned out to be “blue dress” democrats...with Rhambo’s stains on their chins to show for it

I would think the Blue Dog Dems align more with the RINO GOP remnants.

So a complete realignment would put the far left in charge of a 20% Democrat party, the 23% Tea Party, and the Blue Dogs, RINO’s and undecideds somewhere in the middle.

Although the other poll showing 40% conservative identity should be good news for us, depending on how things shake out.

If you think you can trust the Blu Curs, they wouldn’t have voted for Pelosi and Reid as speaker and majority leader.
