Stunning. Those blue spots could be flipped red with a little help from James O’Keefe and Katherine Englebrecht of True the Vote.

And VoterID, of course.

We can turn it ALL RED with just a couple of concentrated actions.

1) Hispanics; 2) Sniveling granola-crunching morons in Santa Fe. Not everybody in Santa Fe or Albuquerque is a granola-crunching moron, but there are enough of them there to give the place a bluish tint.

I’m pretty sure that the WV House flipped on Tuesday.

Hmmm....This looks very good for a Convention of the States.

I am sure Mark Levin will be mentioning this.

Please check my latest posts. My research was originally faulty but it does provide an interesting contrast to what it was the night before.

I am listening to him right now. Unfortunately, I can’t seem to grasp how this will be achieved.

Meanwhile, here is the link to the National Review article he was citing, about how what Repubs plan to do will help the business class and does not address the immediate screaming desires of the electorate.

It also points out the pitfalls of falling into Harry Reid’s maligning pulpit and the slavering maw of the media who seek to futher divide our party.

http://www.nationalreview.com/article/392082/governing-trap-editors

“Republicans should also advance conservative ideas on taxes, jobs, energy, higher-education subsidies, and much else. For the most part that won’t involve either battle royale or deal-cutting with Obama; it will involve putting up legislation that Senate Democrats filibuster. And that’s all right: Obama won’t be on the ballot in 2016, but many Senate Democrats will.

So will Senate Republicans in many blue states. It would be better for them to be able to point to an attractive Republican agenda on bread-and-butter issues than to be able to say that they had passed trade-promotion authority.

To some extent, of course, they will be able to do both. They should move on trade-promotion authority, and more generally make progress where it is possible. But not much progress is possible until we have a better president. Getting one ought to be conservatism’s main political goal over the next two years.”

You are so funny. Why are the libs here in the desert with we who seek the company with hardy, self- sufficient descendants of pioneers and have tried to escape the urban hothouses of over-governance?

Maybe they think we are closer to the earth and want to drag us further into the ground. You would think having all the best waterfront real estate, they would leave us the heck alone. But as you had posited, they have a thing for aliens, illegal and otherwise.

I really wish they could recolonize parts of the San Fernando Valley, CA for which they abdicated to the illegals. That will keep them contained.

Minnesota also gets me. I guess in the north-east area it is still the background of the union miners that gets passed down through the generations. And the south and west is the farmers with their Federal crop subsidies? Just seems odd though, as the people that I have met in the rural parts of Minnesota are pro-gun, anti-baby killing and anti gay marriage types.

But I guess the promise of continued subsidies, and “Well, Papa always voted DFL...”

For all you California hating dimwits, take a look at how red California is...That is if you’re even capable of knowing where the state is located on a map.

I don’t know who Malkin supported in the primary. As I remember none of the choices were good. The two prominent ones were Tancredo and Beauprez, neither of which were going to win a statewide race. I was hoping Cory Gardner would pull Beauprez on his coat tails, but it didn’t happen. Thanks to our current and now re elected governor, we have same day voter registration and mail in ballots automatically sent to every registered voter. So I’m sure there was no voter fraud or illegals voting..... (do I need the sarc tag?)

And VoterID, of course.

Just effective Voter ID would do it.

Texas would be more red if we’d deport more illegals and give Austin to CA.

I know we are stuck with this stupid colour scheme but I sure wish we could be the blue gang and the dims get to be commie red.
