Maybe Obama should stop playing rock star, sending his ole lady off to Mylie
Cyrus concerts with tweens (wonder what that little stunt cost the
taxpayers), keep one or two of the promises he made, stop blaming Bush for
every failure he creates, and begin to act like a fucking President. Of
course, with hardened bigoted lemmings like Cliffy and the rest of the
liberal nutbars supporting him simply because he is not a Republican, he
will blunder along as he has for the past year and get *nothing* positive
done. Give the lefties enough rope and they hang themselves.
This may be the first of the races where the Repug is the 3rd party
candidate.
Bret Cahill
Hoffman got less than Owens, dumber ass.
> The whore who stabbed the Republicans in the
> back is partially responsible. Hoffman will be back.
Maybe he should run in his own district, eh?
This has happened before. Repugs took Keyes out of MD to run for
senate against a Democrat a few years ago and the Democrat won.
Bret Cahill
My Wednesday Examiner column, written as the 2009 election returns
were coming in, stands up pretty well. But let me add some
observations written as the course of the elections became clearer.
First, in the governor elections in Virginia and New Jersey, the
Democratic candidate ran far behind Barack Obama’s percentages in 2008
and the Republican candidates ran ahead of George W. Bush’s
percentages in 2004. The numbers are pretty daunting. In Virginia
Creigh Deeds won 41% of the votes, way behind Barack Obama’s 53% in
2008. And in New Jersey Democratic incumbent Jon Corzine won 45% of
the votes, way behind Obama’s 57% in 2008.
In contrast, the Republican candidates won higher percentages than
Bush won in the recent high-water mark of the Republican party in
2004. Republican Bob McDonnell won 59% in Virginia, well ahead of
Bush’s 54%. And Republican Chris Christie won 49%, ahead of Bush’s
46%. On the basis of these numbers you could say—in races where the
issues were reasonably congruent though not identical to national
issues—that Democrats were performing far below their recent optimal
levels and Republicans were performing well above them.
Second, and here I want to credit for this observations longtime
Democratic pollster and political analyst Pat Caddell, affluent
suburban voters moved sharply toward Republicans in 2009.
Bergen County, New Jersey, a 56%-42% Corzine constituency in 2005,
came within a point or two of voting for Christie, and in Virginia
McDonnell carried 51%-49% Fairfax County—Republican for years but
recently in cultural issues and with an increasing immigrant
population Democratic (60%-39% Obama in 2008). I
n addition, Westchester County, New York, voted 58%-42% for a
Republican county execctive after voting almost exactly the opposite
way, in a race involving the same two candidates, four years before .
The Philadelphia suburban counties, increasingly Democratic in 1996,
2000, 2004 and 2008, voted Republican in a partisan race for the
Supreme Court in 2009.
From the 1996 election up through and including 2008., affluent
counties in the East, Midwest and West have trended Democratic,
largely through distaste for the religious and cultural conservatives
whom voters there have seen (not without reason) as dominant in the
Republican party. Now, with the specter of higher tax rates and a
vastly expanded public sector, they may be—possibly—headed in the
other direction. An interesting trend to watch.
Finally, third, what will be the impact of these elections on
forthcoming votes in Congress on the Democratic leaddership’s
controversial and unpopular health legislation. The Virginia Board of
Elections give us some hints when it aggregates the results by
congressional district. In the 2008 elections three Democrats captured
three previously Republican congressional districts in Virginia,
giving Democrats six or the eleven-member delegation.
The results of the gubernatorial election show that at least some of
these Democrats are imperiled.
In the 2nd congressional district, where Democrat Glenn Nye beat
Republican incumbent Thelma Drake 52%-47%, McDonnell beat Deeds
62%-38%. In the 5th congressional district, where Democrat Tom
Perriello beat Republican incumbent Virgil Goode 50.01%-49.85%, or a
margin of 727 popular votes, the lowest in the country, McDonnell beat
Deeds 61%-39%. In the 11th congressional district, where Democrat
Gerry Connally won 55%-43% a district vacated by Republican incumbent
Tom Davis, McDonnell beat Deeds 55%-45%. And the southwest, coal-
producing “Fighting Ninth,” represented since 1982 by Democrat Rick
Boucher, voted 67%-33% for McDonnell.
I cannot imagine that Congressmen Nye, Perriello, Connally and Boucher
have not already accessed the websites which have shown the position
of their constituents in a contest which, while like all governorship
contests has its own specific features, was also in its contrast on
issue positions reasonably congruent with those prevailing on national
issues. And I can certainly respond with sympathy if any or all of
these incumbents responded to these numbers with a two-word comment of
which I will relay only the first word which is, “Oh.”
The 2009 election results are certainly not going to make it easy for
Speaker Nancy Pelosi to round up the needed 218 votes for Democrats’
health care bills.

At least the 23rd got its 5 minutes of fame. Last year, 99% of the Dems
claiming an overwhelming victory couldn't have found it on a map.

Yup, considering their astounding lack of accomplishment on all fronts. As
you were, they did manage to vote themselves their pay raise, or I should
say, not vote, considering how it's structured.
Owens was your candidate then? I thought you were a redopican.
You won two local elections. The Dems won another seat in the House of
Representatives..a seat that has been republican since the Civil War.
Now tell me...which elected official of the 3 can do anything that
affects you. You don't live in New Jersey or in Virginia so those
don't have any affect on you. However the new democrat can vote for
laws and bills that directly affect you.
Obama and the liberals have another vote in Congress. Now spin that up
your ass!
How is another vote for the Dems in the House of Representatives a
wedgie?
Mr. Bush was born in Connecticut, raised in Texas, finished high
school in Massachusetts, attended Yale and Harvard, and returned to
Texas, where he has spent most of his life.
People are allowed to move around in these United States.
There are plenty of things to complain about with respect to Mr. Bush;
claiming "carpet bagging" is a stretch at best.
> Mr. Bush was born in Connecticut.
So he says, but he's never released his vault copy long form birth
certificate with the doctor's name.
Unless you're claiming that Bush's parents weren't American citizens, it
doesn't matter where he was born.
After all this "birth certificate" nonsense, I'm surprised you don't

One could dispose of all the rethugs & still have plenty of conservatives
in the demoratic party alone.
At least we would get debate & argument.

No, you'd just have another group to hate and despise.
Dispose? And how would you do that?
There is a large percentage of folks in California who are not originally
from there. They didn't all come as the guests of the Communist Party.
Well, aside from that being a fase assumption -- it is possible for
two US citizens to have a child who is not a natural born citizen --
how do we know GHWB and Barbara were citizens? See, no one ever
demanded proof. We just took their word for it.

What you "think" you know isn't so.

Of course, because you're a dope who thinks he's right.
Wow. Twice.

No doubt the bush recession was partly to blame.
He's also wrong to assume Scozzafava's couple of percents would have
gone to Hoffman. Those people didn't want Hoffman. While some might
have gone to him, some would also hae gone to Owens.
He also overlooks that this had been a solid RED seat since the
friggin' Civil War and that only last year, the GOP congressman won
with 65 percent of the vote, nearly two to one.
It's quite a swing back to the Dems where it counts, in Washington.

I love how the MSM, which is conservative, spun this week as a GOP
comeback when they lost the two House seat elections.
Umm, you only think that because you were told.
Seriously, where's the proof?
See how this gets played? Obama's actually proven his NBC, yet
birthers pretend he hasn't.

How do we know you're not a slime mold?
