Republican Scott Brown's victory in Massachusetts' special Senate election was for Democratic leaders a moment that can be described in two words, of which I will only print the first here, which is "oh."
Left-wing bloggers, liberal columnists and the stray Nobel Prize winner-turned polemicist are all urging Democrats in Congress to pass, somehow, some way, a health care bill, and many of them are calling for a second and even larger stimulus bill.

Yep, that's worked so well for em. Might as well spend another trillion or so.
Oh, and don't forget to "TAX THE RICH" that's the key.

Leftists have demanded that Democrats adhere to their socialism. And that has killed the Democratic Party.
Americans are not a socialist people. We are a nation of people who make it on our own, and expect nothing more of the government other than security, law, and to stay out of our way.
Yet the Che-T-Shirt fringe has used the Democratic Party to shove their Marxism on us. Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and Barak Obama are their vanguard. They force Lenin, Fidel and Mao on Americans, who are the people of Teddy Roosevelt and Ronald Reagan. We are better dead than red.
If those Democrats who aren’t marxists don’t stand up and take their party back, it will die. And if it dies, so be it. Don’t say I didn’t warn them.
Actually, the second vulgar unprintable word can be easily left out, with the first becoming the second and an new first word in its place:
I’d be happy with a 1946. Republicans + 13 in the Senate, and + 55 in the House. That would give us an 8 seat margin in the Senate, and a 28 seat margin in the House.
No one, absolutely no one, knows each and every Congressional District, its demographics, and history, like Barone. If he sees something big coming in September, you can take it to the bank. The Charlie Cook backup reinforces that pretty strongly.
Leave it to Barone to draw the most insightful conclusions. Many miles between here and November. Let us hope that we get a good crop of conservatives - not just pubs.
And no RINOs.
IOW, scared positively witless. LOL!!!!
On another thread, the topic was Mark Levin’s endorsement of JD Hayworth in AZ v. McCain. That is the way to do it.
If you recall in the primaries leading to the 2008 election, NONE of the conservative talk radio guys would step forward with an endorsement, “oh, I’m friends with ALL of them.” I think they have lived to regret that indecision, and are now dedicated to helping the more conservative candidates in the primaryies where it counts.
JFK was more conservative than Nixon. If he were alive today he would be labeled as a right wing tea bagger who wanted tax cuts and a strong national defense.
Nixon gave us OSHA, EPA and countless federal agencies that exist to this day.
Forget the D and R next to their name. I wasn't alive in 1960 but reading their words and legislation I can come to no other conclusion. Anybody have something to refute or add?
With more idiotic economic, security and foreign policies, those estimates of rat losses could be low balls.
Yep. Nowadays, JFK couldn’t even be in the Republican party, as they’d denounce him as being too far-right to be ‘electable’.
As Vice President, Nixon faced down Kruschchev in the famous "kitchen debates." Kennedy was all for "negotiation," which ended with his humiliation at the Vienna summit. He also failed to respond, even to come back to Washington from vacation, when the East Germans and Soviets threw up the Berlin Wall. When the Soviets moved missiles into Cuba, Kennedy promised Cuba immunity from future invasion or subversion, as the price of USSR removing their missiles. That's why we never flicked the little skeeter Castro off our butt when we easily could have.
Jack Kennedy was no McGovernite, to be sure, but like every other Kennedy, he was lotsa talk and little walk.
Thanks for the insight.

As long as Obama is in office, we will need to keep the pressure on.
