The mecca of the Democrat cesspools is Cleveland, which is in the county. This county cannot get rid of Democrats (such as Kookcinich), and other Left-Wing radicals, and in fact, it was the cities' voters (the cesspools) that made the difference in getting Sherrod "The Socialist" Brown as one of our Senators. Likewise, unless you live in a County that is rural or suburban without a major metro area, you are stuck with Democrats because the cities will be voting 95% Democrat, as they live off others in their decaying ratholes.
The GOOD news is that Ohio is nearing a tipping point, however, where it can go Red because Autos/Manufacturing have shut down, essentially. All those Union voters are now either unemployed Democrats, or moving to find a job elsewhere. The UAW, AFL-CIO, USW have all suffered major losses of membership, but now the AFSCME, SEIU, and NEA Unions are supplanting them. It's the GOVERNMENT UNION EMPLOYEES who live off others' earnings now, for the most part, as other Union Membership is at rock-bottom. The bailouts to the Unions are legendary in the GM/Chrysler, and also in the Teachers and State Workers/City Workers taxpayer fund diversion to keep Union workers on the dole.
I firmly believe that the removal of Unions from the public sector is paramount, although I fear it's too late now. The Socialist Workers' Party is essentially what we have now, with all the "public" Union members....and they out-vote the Flyover Country voters regularly in numbers, AND, they promote their Agenda using taxpayer dollars (that's their income source, and Legislation to keep them fat and happy is always approved by the politicians who need them voting for their re-election).
As far as Illegals goes, Kalifornia is now a suburb for Mexicans, and most of the Southwest is over-run with them, too, as their wages are lower and businesses depend on that cheap labor. I would NEVER knowingly hire an Illegal or a contractor who employs illegals, but if you want to bid on a Federal Government Contract, you have to meet THEIR criteria (diversity, et cetera, and Union Labor).
I do my best to be involved in Tea Party efforts, but it sure seems like we're shoveling S&*t against the tide....
Hang in there my friend. I think Barack Obama will come to our rescue. He has done a great job for us already. From my perspective he is responsible for the Tea Parties.
This man is coming unglued. I suspect that his basic incompetence is dawning on him. There is talk of a Democrat challenging him in the primaries in 2012.
He certainly won’t become any more competent and his pathological ego really can’t take the growing dissatisfaction with his performance.
Personally, if it wouldn’t have such dire consequences for the nation and the world, I would love to see him carried out of the White House in four point restraints. I admit that I can’t stand the site of the man.
When I see this punk step off of Air Force One and salute the Marine at the bottom of the ladder I feel sick to the stomach. Anyway, time will tell. Have a very happy Thanksgiving.
