Yup.

What i fear is that the debacle so immobilizes people that we just “freeze”, but Brown’s victory, hopefully not too late, may force a turn, if not in Nov..then the next election. this is assuming the whole thing hasn’t imploded by then.

Wahn...angrily disagreeing with Brit that healthcare is a priority of the American people.

Brit cruelly slaps him down with exit poll results from actual voters.

LOL, Kristol mimics obama’s words about “so long as I have a breath in me, I will not stop fighting for you” phrase. Good, obama needs to be made fun of, it will drive him nuts.

Britt thinks obama needs to “pull a Clinton” - change course midstream and become more moderate (not the blue dress thing). Bringing in Plouffe doesn’t sound like obama received the message that “the people” aren’t happy with his/dem policies; changing the message won’t fix this for people.

Juan - there is populist anger at Washington, the same kind that brought us a one term senator to the president’s office. Allrighty.

The goal of the Republican Main Street Partnership is simple; to find commonsense solutions to problems that people are wrestling with each and every day.

How about going with what works rather then clinging to the failed dogmas of the Keynesian economic school?

Both JF Kennedy and Ronald Reagan showed them the way to fix a broken economy.

Cut taxes, cuts spending, get the Govt out of the private sector's way. Let the people decide what to do with their money.

Been there, done that. It's ain't rocket science.

The hypocrisy of the Left is amazing. After engaging in the worst sorts of hysterics when out of power, the Left wants a “Complaint free world” now that they lied their way into power.

Obama says the problem is communication so I guess Gibbs will be the next to go under the bus.

Hillary Clinton says “I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration that somehow you’re not patriotic. And we should stand up and say ‘We are Americans and we have a right to disagree with any administration.’”

Exactly, at least we here we will never freeze.

One more comment about Valerie Jarret's appearance on MTP.

Many of her responses were so fast and so to the point(all lies of course) you had to wonder if she was/is not the author of much of what zero has/is doing.

Getting to the source of the Jokers' teleprompter appearances has always been a big question mark in my mind. Today we may have gotten a lot closer to that source.

One good thing about starting a campaign in Jan for an election in Aug is it gives plenty of time to air all the dirty linen. If Hayworth can overcome any misdeeds from his past and defeat a longtime, nationally known, pet of the press candidate in the primary, he should have little trouble defeating any challenger in the general election. I have long believed that heated primary contests are the best forge to steel a candidate for the dirty, underhanded tactics of Demoncrat opponents.

LOL. Gibbs says they should reconfirm Bernanke for the sake of stability in the markets.

You’re going to have to get your boss to shut his mouth, Gibbsy.

Debra Medina, challenger for Governor of Texas is totally focused on our Constitutional Rights and articulates it at this Tea Party rally. We should remind all our candidates of these foundational truths:

“We must demand that our elected officials support and respect the 10th amendment and Texas sovereignty. The U.S. Constitution not only protects citizens’ freedoms in the Bill of Rights, it also divides power between the federal and state governments and ultimately reserves final authority for the people themselves. Texas must stop the over reaching federal government and nullify federal mandates in agriculture, energy, education, healthcare, industry, and any other areas D.C. is not granted authority by Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution.

Early in our history, many argued against forming a union fearing that the federal government would gain too much power over the state. Thomas Jefferson reassured the states that that could never happen. The states, he said, being sovereign and indepent, have the “unquestionable right to judge of the infraction.” It is our right as a state. It is our duty as a state to recognize when Washington D.C. is stepping outside its constitutional bounds. Jefferson further commented that nullification by the states of all unauthorized acts is the rightful remedy.

The Constitution of the United States is a contract between “We the People” to form a limited federal government composed of sovereign states. It creates a republican form of government. Any power not expressly granted to the federal government is reserved for the states and for the people. Like any party to a contract, Texas must stand up and push back against any attempts to abuse the Constitution or abuse the inalienable rights granted by our Creator.

We must use the tools of nullification and interposition aggressively if we are going to restore state sovereignty in Texas, if we are going to secure for all Texans a freedom to work and prosper as we choose and as we direct. As individuals, as parents, as families, and as Texans we must be courageous enough to say NO when Washington oversteps its bounds. We Texans have always believed that the individual and the family are the foundation of America’s greatness. We Texans know what’s best for our families. We know best how to manage our lives, we know best how to raise our children, and we know best how to spend our money.

By asserting her Constitutional sovereignty, Texas can protect her citizens and provide them the opportunity to succeed. Governor Perry and Senator Hutchison have done nothing to stop the overreach of Washington D.C. In fact, I would argue that they have pursued Washington’s intervention and assistance making Texas not only more dependent but subservient to the federal government. As Governor, I will uphold my oath to defend and protect the U.S. Constitution. I will fight back against federal laws that unconstitutionally interfere with the lives of Texans. Texans know best how to manage our own families and our businesses. When I become governor, Texas will lead the nation in declaring sovereignty for the people.

Texas can lead. Texas will lead.”

Gibbs does not seem to recognize that much of the protest against Bernanke is coming from the left. Boxer, Feingold.

I’m watching reliable sources and wondering if Howie will criticize his own network for the unbalanced reporting on Brown. See Johnny$ place for the graph that shows how little time CNN gave to Brown on the night he won the election.

JD's tougher challenge would be the primary against Mac, imho. I don't see a popular dem coming along. I'd also put my money on the Tea Party crowd to replace McCain. Even my feel-good lib wife realizes illegal immigration is of great concern here. That's the main issue that distinguishes the 2 from each other, climate-change and terrorism (waterboarding) being 2 other issues.

The political climate is such here in the US that the time is right for JD to try it. He'll get Sheriff Joe's endorsement, which means something to many.

The pictures delivered to Juan in a plain brown wrapper must really be doozies! Did these “journalists” really perform labotomies on each other for extra credit to make up for their inability to pass a simple science test?
