With unemployment still hovering close to double digits, frustration and dissatisfaction have been running high in the lead-up to the election. That's not been lost on Democratic candidates and surrogates, who, of late, have spent time on the campaign trail putting the electorate on the proverbial couch.

"People are angry," former President Bill Clinton said yesterday at a campaign event for Washington state incumbent Sen. Patty Murray. "But when you make a decision when you're mad about anything, not just politics -- there's an 80 percent chance you make a mistake."

The voters aren’t angry, Mr Clinton. They are finally fed up.

Voting angry is how we got Obama so I guess Clinton is right this time.

Liberal Speak: “... when you make a decision when you’re mad about anything, not just politics — there’s an 80 percent chance you make a mistake.”

English Translation: “... when you make a decision when you’re mad about anything, not just politics — there’s an 80 percent chance you are justified.”

Bill Clinton and all good Democrats should want people to vote when angry.

Why? Because if people are voting while angry, they are choosing their elected representatives within our existing system of government. They are working within the system.

I hope and pray we never see a revolution in this country. I fear what could replace our imperfect, flawed, but still functioning republic.

It’s a little late to be worrying about that.

And here we see the rats playing out the five stages of grief. Now they’re in the negotiation stage. By next week they’ll be in tea acceptance stage.

I can’t wait for Clinton to say ‘Sure, we’re gonna get our asses kicked and frankly, we deserve it. We have been the most venal assholes you can imagine. We’re sorry America.’

I will not be voting angry, just voting to save my country.

I'm voting furious, but we have the same end goal in mind.

In other words - keep the Tar to a tepid simmer rather than a wild boil, and don't let the Feathers fly around too much in the tsunami ...

Good advice, Slick, we'll keep that in mind in the voting booth ....

Yes, I actually agree with him. People shouldn’t vote while angry. Anger leads to mistakes and lapses in judgment, and someone who’s not careful may inadvertently cast votes for Democrats. Instead, remain calm and cheerily vote for the right candidates for the job.

Thanks for the helpful hint, Mr. Clinton! How did we ever get along without you?

The MSM word of the day on November 3 will be "Hysterical". This will be beyond mere fear or anger. It won't even be Peter Jennings' report of the 1994 election as a "Temper Tantrum". No, we will be accused of insane rage and panic, i.e. hysteria.

I think we are supposedly scared of being angry and afraid. Its hard to keep up with the evolving spin for how they try to characterize the tsunami of opposition.

We’ve seen the Democrat voting record. I’m angry, and I intend to vote you out of office.

“revenge is a dish best served cold”

I’m not angry now and I won’t be angry when I vote against every leftist on the ballot. I’ll be deliberate. I’ll be resolute.

But I won’t be angry.
