Best piece I've read since Tuesday.

I'm more hopeful about the future than I have been for over a year.

The '08 election was a historical anomaly. Obama ran against an unpopular Republican president, the politically incompetent McCain, a financial collapse .........And still he won by only seven points.

We still have not determined what we all strongly suspect------that Ohaha won fraudulently-----that his corrupt buddies at ACORN cooked the vote.

New Jersey (a solid Dem state) and Virginia were terrible, horrible, disastrous, cataclysmic blows to Obama’s prestige. And to Rahm's Plan to establish a Democratic Century.

White House hacks resorted to saying Ohaha was not watching the results come in. Press secretary---and resident liar, Robert Gibbs---said the elections don't "mean much" to Ohaha. Here's a couple reminders that show the truth to that lie.

HERE'S HOW DESPERATE THEY WERE TO WIN NJ Obama went to New Jersey three times---Biden was there twice.

The NY Times reported :

(a) every TV ad Corzine put on the air was being screened by Obama's WH team.

(b) Corzine's aides gave the WH daily briefings.

(c) Obama’s pollsters took over for Corzine’s polling team, and,

(d) White House operatives were on the ground in New Jersey, for everything from internal strategy sessions to secret, obscure pep rallies with Latinoes, (still toweling off after swimming the Rio Grande).

Corzine had a "Peruvian PAC" endorsing him. Latino invaders from Ecuador, Mexico, Colombia, Dominican Republic, Cuba, El Salvador, Guatemala, Puerto Rico and Spain are currently "registered" to vote in NJ (or being trucked in election day) under several names.......all voting for Corzine under several identities.

All of the pundits claimed the race was "close" and that the counting would go on til the wee hours. However, Repub Christie came charging out of the gate well-ahead. Tgen two hours after the polls closed, he was declared the winner by a comfortable 5 points.

In the end, Obama's NJ appearances----saying he needed Corzine as "his partner"----made him a handy target for voter discontent. He and Corzine paid the price.

SUMMIMG UP Ohaha was castrated on Tuesday night and he still doesn't know it yet. Well, maybe when Michele asks for sex, the reality will kick in....... (/snic).

===================================

To help Corzine, Ohaha hid $17.5 BILLION stimulus in NJ---not for creating jobs, but for Corzine's reelection kitty. Inevetigatve news reports say the stim disappeared and could not be traced. NOTE The WH still has not spent 85% of the stim----buzz is Ohaha is saving it for Dem candidates 2010 elections.

The MSM and Democrats have tried to write-off conservatives for decades.

If you don’t believe me, listen to Rush, he can tell you how many times articles were written about his demise.

Some clear thinking from Krauthammer.
Krauthammer is a peabrained putz.
He apparently thinks that all the GOP has to do is kick back and let the Messiah screw-up, then the neocons will be swept back into office because Americans have no other choice.

I said as much last November. Charles obviously was reading my posts calling Obama’s win margin a fluke. However I will not be replacing Charles anytime soon on the FOX all-stars. Drat the bad luck. (smirk)

"Some clear thinking from Krauthammer"

Not hardly.

Willie Green has got it mostly right in #24 when he says "neocon"

Obviously there would numerous reasons, but the main reason for the GOP bloodbaths of 06 and 08 was Iraq, which was put on by the NeoCons. And Kraut is one of the top Neocon media mouthpieces.

But where Willie has it wrong when he says, "kick back...........and swept back into power.

The NeoCons are not kicked back, they are strongly putting everything they have into stupid sarah from alaska, who they think they can co-opt.

BTW, the main reason Obama and the dems are dithering on Afghan, is that they don't want to fall into a trap there as the GOP/Neocons did in Iraq

2008 combined the weakness of the candidate (McCain), the intense unpopularity of Bush-Cheney and the Iraq War, with a downturn in the economy, and a charismatic minority candidate who was not properly vetted by the mainstream media. The negative coattails of Bush-Cheney-Rumsfeld did not transfer to the Governors races in Virginia and New Jersey. That is over. Blown off the radar by the economy, Obamacare, out-of-control taxes, and creeping socialism.

Unfortunately, 2008 was not an anomaly. Rather the anger from Bush mismanagement hastened the natural result of our decision to import people more open to marxism and allow leftists to indoctrinate our children.

Have Conservatives Failed America?
