Listen to Coach every Tuesday at 8:30 AM Eastern Time. The Wakeup Call, with Ken Walsh. WFTW 1260 AM from Fort Walton Beach, Florida. WFTW listen live. Ken Walsh is a retired Air Force Jag Officer.

Every Wednesday at 8:30 AM Eastern Time. The Captain’s America with Matt Bruce. WSRQ 1220 AM from Sarasota Florida. The Captain’s America Matt Bruce is a Viet Nam veteran who is a retired Fire Rescue Captain.

Real Americans will love the give and take on both of these shows. They’re both Coach Approved and two thumbs up!

The latest Cook Report has the 13th NY CD a “likely” Democrat hold. As one of the best, Cook knows about politics and elections around the country, but in this prediction he is wrong. The resistance to Freshman Democrat Michael McMahon is enormous, but obviously Cook doesn’t know this. A prediction like this begs the question: If a top firm like Cook is wrong in one district how about all of the others? Given the following published survey data, the answer is very wrong. The most reliable measure of what is likely to happen in a coming Congressional election are the “generic ballot” numbers which are derived from the simple question: Regardless of candidates will you be voting Democrat or Republican for Congress?” Democrats so consistently out poll Republicans on this question, that both sides allow a built in two point “handicap” for them. So if the “generic” is -2 for Republicans it is considered a tie. Since June 28 Rasmussen’s generic ballot numbers have given Republicans at least a +2 over Democrats. In 1994 when Republicans swept to 54 victories and retook the House, the Democrat controlled Congress had an approval rating of 23% and Republicans ended with a final + 6. Today Rasmussen has...

Simply taking away democrat majority power in congress will not be enough. We must remove their choke hold on America from our schools, news, legal system, business, etc. The election is just a first step...big one, but just the beachhead.

Yes, especially schools and more specifically, our kid’s lives. From Captain Planet, to the revisionist history and social agenda’s taught as American. What is “American”? Like patriotism? Like family values? Like personal responsibility and personal liberty? This is what our kids have to be taught in school, not PC values and Dem talking points.

We have lost one generation. Time to start reversing the brainwashing.
