I don’t need to put a lot of words around these graphs, which clearly illustrates the reaction of America to a government take over of health care: By 2-1 America wants to keep the current system – ’nuff said. BTW, any Democratg congress-critter on this list with a partisan voter index (PVI) of R+1 or […]

Updates Below! Obama was supposed to be a post partisan leader who could bring the people together. Instead he has been an inexperienced shill for those whacky liberals in DC. And Americans are taking notice. The backlash against the liberal policies being pushed by Obama and Democrats is growing wider and deeper. But first, a […]

Some good recaps out today on what happened Tuesday and what will likely happen next November. First a good recap from Stuart Rothenberg: What were some of the mistakes and mischaracterizations during the campaigns and after the voting? One of the worst, I thought, was the widespread characterization of Dede Scozzafava, the Republican nominee in […]

Mad Madam Pelosi rallied, cajoled and threatened enough Democrats (and one republican) to pass the destruction of health care in this nation 220-215. We watched the vote as it happened and it saw our health care and our parents’ health care begin to slip away. The real bipartisan vote was against the measure with 39 […]

As I noted yesterday the topic driving the electorate is the unemployment, which shot up dramatically again in October: The United States economy shed 190,000 jobs in October, and the unemployment rate reached a 26-year high of 10.2 percent, up from 9.8 percent in September, the Department of Labor said Friday in its monthly economic […]

NY-23 illustrated an interesting decision path for the GOP. There are two paths available, and the decision on which path to take is up to the far right ‘true’ conservatives who spout such bonding terms as RINO. If the far right can respectfully align with the centrists, the first path forward was illustrated in VA […]

OK, I am a huge Palin fan who is stymied as to what this is all about: “Virginia, hello, this is Sarah Palin calling to urge you to go to the polls Tuesday and vote to share our principles,†the former Alaska governor says in the call, which was provided to CNN by one Democrat […]

This fall’s elections in VA, NJ and NY-23 are turning out to be really bad for the Democrats. In NJ and NY-23 there are two candidates opposing the Democrats, yet the combined anti-Democrat vote is not in doubt. And it is not pretty. This is not a surprising response from the nation’s electorate given the liberal […]
