Circulating From WP - Republican Wave Fails To Materialize

[mascale]

No one likes the economy, and no one likes the Redskins(?), and no one seems to be too thrilled with Arabs, either(?). This is America, and so of course no one seems to be too thrilled with Obama. That aside. . . .that all seems to be aside(?). The Democrats still have a lot of ways to stay in the lead in the Senate, and maybe the White House, 2014(?). It is being noticed, and reprinted.

The wave has failed to materialize - The Washington Post

What do race riots, Sunni riotous fanaticism, and neo-Slavic nationalism all seem to have in common? All that is aside. The White House is the only source of solutions. The federal legislatures won't return to session until next week, and then they will recess until the elections are over. So far, the President has even begged off on a strategy--willing to involve the federal legislatures. The federal legislatures made it look like that was a bad idea. There had to be a strategy for ISIS without consulting them, likely so they could make an issue of that in the elections.

Everyone else was off to Labor Day Weekend.

Throwing out incumbents wasn't even mentioned, even in Louisiana--which seems instead to want the City of Washington, D. C, destroyed. Senator Landrieu supporting the federal city--somehow made no sense to Republicans from Louisiana.

The Independents seem impressed with ObamaCare. A lot of the unhappiness in the polls is from people who wanted more than they got. There is no mainstream issue of anything viable that identifies GOP in the Midterms.

Okay, okay, okay.

Slow down there, turbo.

That OP was like a really bad 80s Billy Joel hit on steroids, man.

 

[Iceweasel]

yawn

 

[EconChick]

Yawn is right.

Good, so the few libs that were going to show up can stay home now.

Either way the Congress is going Republican. It doesn't take a wave. It takes just one more vote than the other guy.

 

[EconChick]

But thanks for confirming the "no one likes the economy" that the lib gang on here kept saying was untrue. LOL.

They mean the Bush economy. We won't be in the Obama economy until the numbers start looking better, even if all his policies are reversed.

Mainly Putin is reportedly hiding Russian casualities from the Russians themselves. With foreign crises more in the press than anyone looting in Missouri--and from neighboring states--then a tendency to support the White House is more likely to materialize, than anything the GOP has failed to offer. Probably Missouri is about the mid-Western trades, in the "Winds of change" context of Seattle and Colorado. Opportunity is about America, GOP(?)!

In San Diego, there is male Republican candidate for Congress, straight, who prefers to wear women's clothes. It is in the campaign, on-going, door to door. Anyone is reminded that Ron and Rand Paul are more nearly identified with the GOP. Soon there may be new stunts, going door to door, all over(?)!

By a "wave," likely political pundits have something less Libertarian in mind!

In liberal, liberated Venice, CA, comparing--mostly a lot of people were into virtually no type of clothing whatsoever, only yesterday! That was probably more mainstream, and likely Democratic leaning.

(Hmmmm! Many may need to wonder at new policy power figure, "Squaw Man(?)!" New GOP alternative to Obama, maybe(?)!"

If the Republicans can't take the Senate with everything this fucked up, it will be because they spent all of their energy calling each other "RINO's" and Obama a "socialist" and not (nearly) enough time exciting and inspiring the electorate with a clear, dynamic and positive vision of America's future.

Again.

Everything is not fucked up. The senate is up for grabs. If everything was "this fucked up"....it would be an easy win for the GOP.

We will get two more unemployment reports before the election. If they both show 200k or more jobs added.......it's anyone's game.

What about jobs lost? You forgot to factor that in. Unemployment reports don't give us the full picture, many are underemployed or part timers. The real question is how many stupid people will vote.

The unemployment report tells us the same thing now as it always has. A 6% unemployment rate is better than a 10% unemployment rate. Gaining jobs is better than losing them.

You think you'll win if stupid people don't vote? Fucking brilliant.

Now...eat shit.

 

[Zander]

I don't know if the GOP will capture the Senate in 70 days or so- it will be quite close. But I guarantee we'll see at least a dozen more threads about how the GOP is dead......

One problem with the GOP is that in fact it has no "Establishment" anymore. Most of the 2008-2010 vote came from from outsider, TeePee Party members, of that sized tent. All the pols, and the linked article, are noting that the GOP "Establishment" curtailed all the TeePee challenges. Only traditional GOP, conservative leaners, are mainly running. Witches on Broomsticks are not on the GOP ballots. No one is opining the GOP brand screwed up as usual.

That leaves about 25% of the electorate, going in the opposite direction from the rest of the electorate. This link is from the first of the year. People heading into the GOP wanted their brand candidates, not the Establishment Brand kind of candidates

Record-High 42 of Americans Identify as Independents

Thirty and 40% of the electorate are Democrat or Independent. The GOP 25% were likely TeePee inclusive(?).
The de-energized, anti-GOP Establishment voters have been disenfranchised, most likely, in their eyes.

There is no turning tide of opinion--other than noted in paragraph One of the Opening Post. Normal will likely not be GOP-friendly, more reliant on the not-normal(?)!

It's already factored in. "Jobs added" is the net change.

Unemployment reports don't give us the full picture, many are underemployed or part timers.

Well, it depends how you define "underemployed." But part time for economic reasons is certainly there.

There are two similar stories on Politico, one for the House and one for the Senate. The political consultants interviewed all say that the great anti Obamacare/Bengazi/IRS/ISIS wave has not materialized. They also note that the Democrats are spending this year, while the GOP is not. Moreover, a lot of GOP spending was done in the primaries, trying to get the tea party genie back in the bottle once and for all!

Couldn't make it past that. Take the pacifier out of your rear and try again.

It seems to me that if the Democrats wanted to bury the GOP's chances of taking the Senate and forstall any gains in the House, all they need to do is campaign hard in red states that did not expand Medicaid in compliance with the Affordable Care Act. Explain to millions of people that they are paying more for health insurance or doing without because their Republican leaders put ideology first.

LOL. Blaming Republicans for higher health care costs is retarded. And the Dems have a lock on the retard vote already. But I do hope they waste their money on it.
