The numbers aren't there for Barney, hopefully. And if they're not there for him, there will be alot of other 'tards biting the dust in November as well.

We just GOTTA beat the RINOs in the primaries. An opportunity like this might not come again.

So Bawney Fwank fudd is retiring. He hinted that he would like to serve two years a the end of his career as HUD Secretary so this was in the making for a while. I suspect that he thought the best way to get the nomination would be to retire because next year they would say they need him in the house and he is to valuable to appoint.

What is he scared of that he wouldn’t run for re election?

Wonder what kind of cushy Job Stupak is going to take after his retirement?

Rats appear to be pretty insecure right now. rightfully so.

This isn’t all that much of a surprise. Scott Brown won Frank’s district in Massachusetts, and apparently decisively. All of the politician’s who passed the Health Care Nightmare will be looking for a rock to crawl under, and no doubt have been handsomely Golden Parachuted for their vote.

The question is: how will this effect November? Those who voted for this are dropping like flies and will leave a host of “unknown” Democrat candidates who will be able to claim THEY didn’t vote for Health Care, Cap & Tax, the looming VAT passage. The state run media will do all it can to help these candidates Smokescreen their way to DC. I don’t know that it will pay off, but they’re going to try it: sell the “New” Democrats who have clean hands of all votes which drove out the old Democrats. Sadly, a lot of voters will likely buy into this ploy.

In light of the impending Stupak and Barney Frank ‘retirements’ this bears repeating:

Who Visits the President the Most? Union Chief, Swiss Banker & Chicago Billionaire

Boy..those swiss bank accounts that Obama set up for ‘retiring’ traitors to this country must be really sweet.../sarcasm

NOW HEAR THIS Conservatives will demand investigations of any financial group that dares to hire Bwaney Fwank.

THIS JUST IN Bawney Fwank won't run for re-election.....wants to work on the board of a bank and make $ before retirement.

Bwaney's sucking up where Chris Dodd left off---hoping to snag the big buck financial donors who no longer will contribute to the tainted Dodd. (Dodd dropped out when he could not raise the millions needed to run again.) Read on.

Feb 2010---Cong Frank lauds Dodd's fight for US financial watchdog: Chairman of the Financial Services Committee Congressman Barney Frank (D-Mass), attended the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Frank emerged from a two-hour banking meeting, and made it clear that governments were now calling the shots after spending billions to bail out the industry.

SEN DODD'S CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTORS FROM FINANCE INDUSTRIES that Bwaney is sucking up to:

Citigroup, $310,294;
SAC Capital Partners, $282,000;
United Technologies, $263,400;
AIG, $224,678;
Bear Stearns, $205,600;
St. Paul Travelers, $205,400;
Royal Bank of Scotland, $203,750;

Until it is announced from his office, don’t go overboard on rumor.

A few weeks ago, rumor circulated that Sen. Blanche Lincoln was going to make a major announcement — her retirement. Instead, she only announced that she had a re-election war chest.

They’re going to run a bunch of new radicals and pretender they’re moderates.

We’re seeing it with the gubanatorial candidates in Pennsylvania... Democrats talking about cutting spending and shrinking the size of government... the strategy is to have fresh-faced Marxists with no track records run as far to the right as they can get away with.

If America buys this snake oil, America dies.
