It seems the GOP could actually pull off a Senate take over without the DE seat in play, now that a Daily KOS/PPP poll shows incumbent democrat Russ Feingold behind his GOP opponent by 11% and polling at a sure-to-lose 41% (beyond political death for any incumbent): Ron Johnson (R) 52 (43) Sen. Russ Feingold […]

I predicted in early July the WV special election to fill the late Senator Byrd’s seat would go GOP: Last week I predicted there would be a special election in the fall for the late Robert Byrd’s seat and it would make a GOP take over of the Senate all but certain. I predicted this […]

Look, we all make mistakes. It is really important that people admit when they are fooled into believing something or in someone based on desire instead of facts. Those who opposed Obama expect this from independents and others who mistakenly put their faith in Obama’s words during the campaign. We railed about the lack of […]

Not everyone works hard and makes the right choices through life to support themselves and their families. Not everyone lives within their means and therefore can make it through the lean times as well as the good ones. But those who do so are not evil, and they surely do not have a debt they […]

I was not impressed or bothered by Bill Maher’s witchy extortion attempt on Christine O’Donnel, or by O’Donnell’s views regarding porn and faithfulness to your spouse or partner.

[…]

This is why you don’t want your political party to alienate the center of the country (click to enlarge): I would say it makes complete sense that the small liberal/progressive minority – 18% – are the only ones happy with DC and the Dems right now. Everyone else is fed up with them. And this […]

One of the wonders of this election cycle is watching Democrats pretend they still have a prayer at the polls. Everyone knows they overstepped with the American people and are going to pay a heavy price for their arrogance. What is stunning is how the DC insiders are just now realizing why you don’t elect […]

Lots of back and forth over Bill Maher’s latest effort to be something, this time through blackmail and extortion aimed at Christine O’Donnell. It is a fairly gross and crass act, which will probably endear voters to O’Donnell and finish off Maher’s cancerous career. But the response to the realization Christine O’Donnell had a date […]

What do the VA & NJ Governor races in 2009, the MA Senate special election in January 2010, the Alaska GOP senate primary race, the NY GOP governor primary and the DE GOP senate primary race all seem to have in common? Answer: The trends of these races only became evident to the public very […]
