Is this the place where Boehner, McConnell, Cantor and the RINO establishment hit Happy Hour, pat themselves on the back, and royally blow the opportunity in November?
bttt
“with last night’s seismic event in Florida.”
Seismic? We barely held a seat that was the seat of the republican congressman with most seniority in congress!
Apparently Alex Sink tried to play the “fix-it” card, only to painfully reveal that nobody has a clue how to do this.
How can you trust people who screwed it up royally the first time to “fix” it?
That’s like trusting a builder who built you a house that blew down in the first big storm to build you a new one.
Here we go again... < sigh >
When do we change the paradigm that frames all of this reporting?
When do we see headlines like "Following Florida Win, NBC/WSJ Poll Offers More Hope to Republicans?"
Personally, I'm tired of the defeatest context that assumes that Democrat control is the natural order of things, and that everything is the Democrats to win or lose.
I want to see some editorial writing from a position of Republican-centric strength. I want that to be what is subliminally left in the reader's mind, not Democrat supremacy in all things.

I thought we were going to be punished for the sequester and shutdown.
RE: I thought we were going to be punished for the sequester and shutdown.
1) American voters have short memories
2) I highly doubt if most of these voters in that district even know what the word “sequester” means, not to mention a shutdown that most of them hardly feel.
I will be interested to see how Sabato, Rothenberg, ElectionProjection and The Cook Report react to this vis a vis both the House and the Senate races.
As Rush Limbaugh observed, there is no news anymore, only the liberal narrative.

All it takes to win is for the normal people to go out and vote.
Be careful ... it was an under attended special election that was still very close. The problem is that the RINOs rush out and yel “see, see, see” and the pundits do the same and we are all sitting around in November wondering what went wrong.
The Dems and the Rino’s will continue to make excuse all the way to November 9th and beyond, saying it is not our fault we are losing... it’s a comedy show.
We The People are awake and will continue awaking, as the Tea Party grows ever stronger by the day.
That the dim only pulled 46% is interesting.
Would be curious to see how the 10% that voted libertarian would vote if they could only choose between the two.
The Democrats’ problem is unlike with Social Security and Medicare, there are few political winners from Obamacare and lots of political losers.
The law hasn’t gotten more popular with time and its an albatross around their necks. They have to run on their vote for it and its a poison pill.
Plus Obama’s poll ratings simply suck. They’re looking at further losses in the House which is already GOP and the GOP looks set to take over the Senate, effectively rendering Obama a lame duck for his last two years in office.
The Democrats will regret his legacy soon enough as well as their politically suicidal decision to stick with it come hell or high water.
No one is shedding tears for their plight. Like the old saying has it, “you buy it, you own it.” That is exactly what the Democrats face in having to run on Obamacare. It never helps to be on the unpopular side of an issue.
Those stats seem to show that about half the voters are stupid about half the time, the rest of the time the other half of the voters are stupid.
Four groups have held Obama’s ratings up
Blacks voted 96% for Obama
Hispanics over 70% for Zero
Jews voted 78% for Oblamo
Asians voted over 79% for Obama
I would sure like to see the numbers on their support.
