This morning I actually heard some dimwits suggest that the confidence depends on the weather so we should ignore all these surveys.

The only time I want to see this word in a headline by the AP is on Wednesday Nov 6, 2012.... something like this “Palin wins in Landslide - UNEXPECTED!”

One or two outlier polls from nearly a month ago are propping his overall numbers up on RCP. As soon as those drop off the zero will be about where he was before the OBL kill.

Okay, this irritates me so much I have to post again. Of coarse it is bad. Paying triple prices for food, high gas prices. Most of us can't vote ourselves a cost of living pay raise like those scum in the Congress.

We are hurting and now that flop eared dope wants to raise energy prices.

Mark my words. Many of us will be living in homeless Obamaland tents before long. Obozo’s bro in the hut will be living good compared to us.

Now the stinking Muslim appeaser wants to send billions of taxpayer dollars to our head chopping enemies in the middle east.

PLEASE, can't somebody get this walking blue lipped nightmare out before we are all eating dandelions?

“Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition,” or an economic downtown on Obama’s watch, apparently.

The Drinking Game for the use of the word "Unexpected" has put my tapeworm into the 12 step program.

A google news search within one month with the term “unexpectedly” searched has 9,840 hits.

Since the beginning of 2011 - 25,000 hits in a news search.
I expectedly expected that......

Consider this: Despite the MSM and Obama Administration constantly banging the drums of recovery, improvement, etc, the people of this country are losing confidence.

Obama’s political epitaph is being written as we speak.

Seems to be an awful lot of “unexpected” happening on the watch of the “best and brightest ever to leave the Ivy League”...
