I can assure you I'm not a 97 Percenter.

I live in the People's Republic of Kaliforny and I deal with Liberals and Moderates(?), day in and day out. I talk to many people about Politics, but only if they breach the subject first. Don't want to alienate my Boss's customers.

The Ignorance fueled by the Liberal Media template is beyond my comprehension. The Posters on this site care about what is happening and live for the details, while the regular folk I encounter have no idea what is really in these Mandates that are crossing the Dear Leaders Desk on what seems like a daily basis.

When I mention what is in the Financial “Reform” Bill or the Healthcare “Reform” Bill, people look at me like I'm making this stuff up. They have NO CLUE what is going on, and they seem quite content living that dynamic.

The Oil Leak, BP and Bush's fault. Unemployment, started with Bush and poor old Obammy is doing his darndest to fix it. No matter the crisis, Obama is Teflon here.

Like I said in my original Post, I hope and pray I am wrong.
I want to see an awakening, and I do everything I can to inform people of the truth.

Could just be a Kalifony thing, but it certainly seems my fellow Tea Party friends are outnumbered.

REMEMBER!!!!!

During the 2000 election, the dems used 12-14% more dems in all their polls.

During the 2004 election, they were so desperate they used 18% in most of their polls .. that’s why they were stunned when Bush won by over 4 million votes.

And .. the other little trick is to always show the competition under 45% - which means you’re the loser.

We must never forget - the dems (especially Reid’s bunch) are willing to lie to any extent to retain their power.

It may be too early to go door to door.

All those folks still living in houses where they haven’t paid the mortgage in months might have to move by November.

(only partially kidding)

Why is this a shock to anyone. We elect a complete joke in Angle to oppose him, that’s what is going to happen.

Many of us here said it months ago, he would win if Angle got elected, but people crapped on our comments. This is not shocking at all. He will win, despite Nevadans holding their noses in the process. It sucks, but that’s reality and something we never learn. It’s one thing to stick to principles of conservatism, it’s quite another when we are so hell bent on it that we lose elections and let radicals like Reid stay in office.

It’s about winning elections folks, something that the hard right (and far left) never gets.

I agree with you, LibLieSlayer. We can discuss the facts as we know them and strategy, but let us stop talk, talk, talking about how we are “doomed, failing, losing, have lost the race, have lost the war” against these socialist invaders.

Redirect your energies and become Paul Reveres and spread the truth to each and every one you encounter. Send donations to those conservatives who are running against RINOS and socialists. OPEN your wallets and send Sharron Angle some money...she's running against the biggest a-hole socialist next to obama and he must be CRUSHED. Envision this and help out, instead of crying, “we are dooomed!”

Let's get a hold of ourselves and focus...we must get the word out to the public...get involved with Tea Party groups, or other like minded people and get out handbills with facts and their sources and pass them out. Speak to the senior citizen groups, retired military, church groups, social groups, ANY organization or group willing to hear your message. WE MUST BECOME THE TRUTH MEDIA! AND WE MUST GET OUR TRUTH NEWS OUT TO THE PUBLIC. Do others have any other ideas on how this can be done?

Some folks enjoy wallowing in words of defeat. Others are damn angry and are WILLING TO FIGHT TO SAVE THIS GREAT COUNTRY. Which side are YOU on? And what will you do to demolish this insidious socialist enemy in the White House?

A little assemblyman like Angle is so sweetly forcing the ML of the Dims to spend tens of millions of Dim’s money to barely maintain a lead..... Keep going Reid, it just means less money for all the other races. We will take back the senate even without your seat.........

The Rasmussen poll taken at about the same time shows Angle with a small lead.

I did a variation of your tactic (sort of)once on an old friend of mine! He started ragging on GWB about the war. He said that all the troops needed to come home, GWB was getting them in a needless war, it was expensive, etc.... the usual gripes... Now this was paraphrasing, of course, but that was the gist of it!

Anyway, I told him I thought Pres. Bush was doing a decent enough job, and I liked him. Also I told him that this war was necessary to fight, and it was better to fight them over there, than over here! He didn’t have much to say after that, and changed the subject real quick!

I know a few people like that in here in Mississippi, but the economy has even the worst blue dogs screaming for blood. Only fat, ugly, bearded lesbians, brain washed academons and blacks still support the kenyan islamo-marxist here in Mississippi. They all have their little zero bumper stickers on their cars... and lots of full length scratches that run down the sides of the eco-rides. Mostly volvos and a few prius riders.

I certainly sympathize with you... seems half of America will not wake up until it is time for civil war. I pray and prepare... and work every day to keep the doors open on my dying business that has been HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL until obama... even under catah and clinton I survived and made a little money... the kenyan has killed our economy.

Pretty much everyone I associate with, even those who have never paid any attention to politics, are chomping at the bit for November to get here so they can vote. I guess we'll see come November.....

One more point about the poll, Obama made a highly publicized campaign swing through Nevada on Sunday the 11th (the poll was taken on 7/12 - 7/14) with Reid that received glowing coverage by the State MSM. Isn’t it reasonable to assume that Reid would definitely enjoy a bump in his numbers during this time period (just like Corzine in 2009 after Obama’s 2 highly publiczed and very well covered campaign swings through the State)? The answer is obviously yes. Lastly, Reid made a seismic gaffe when he said on video that there are no illegals working on construction sites in Nevada. That comment will haunt him for the rest of the campaign because it is directly related to the MAIN ISSUE of the race, jobs. As long as Angle sticks with her game plan and makes jobs, jobs, jobs the issue, she wins. Nevada recently passed Michigan as the State with the highest unemployment in the country (14% and growing). People’s prime concerns these days are jobs and the economy. Bob McDonnell proved this by running a positive campaign focusing on improving the economy and creating jobs in the face of brutal attacks from Creigh Deeds, the DNC, the DGA and the MSM. Deeds and company banked on attacking McDonnell and defining him as an extremist (sound familiar?), and he lost by 18 points. Harry Reid has not delivered jobs nor an improving economy to Nevada, and that why is he will lose this race.

Which is why, October will be the month to get out of the stock market for the next 2~3 years.

I've been told there are certain ETFs that specialize in puts and shorts, or perhaps, some other way of protecting you from, or helping you profit even, from bear markets. Anyone know what that's all about?
