OMG Dems Have Knickers in a Twist!

[Yurt]

All I see is the Conservatives need to work harder. Fiscal conservatives, or at least those using it as an issue, did well here.

i think your wingnuttieness was pretty well tested in NY-23...

but i think you should absolutely keep taking losing positions to make a point.

and keep telling us how much weight sarah carries

great, then you will of course be honest and admit obama has the same weight as palin, as corzine lost....

won't hold my breath though

interestingly, i feel no pain...

and the person above has a name, oh wingnutty one.

you however, have a democrat in a seat that's been republican since the year gimel...

in the words of that same president.. I feel *your* pain.

You are right- I should have used your name, but I actually felt that a response in kind to your post would have required that I use the same kind of appellation as you choose to use, and I didn't feel that that would have been polite.

But you have avoided my point, that in an event, the election, that involved both Hoffman and President Obama, it was the egg on the face of the President that deserved far more attention than that on Mr. Hoffman.

So, it seems silly of you to suggest that I have any pain, as my side pretty well beat the pants off yours this time.

Nicht wahr?

I think there is a real grass roots Conservative revolution happening right now. This revolution will of course not be televised by the Liberal dominated MSM but it really is happening. More & more people are turning to true Conservatism. Most are realizing that the Socialists from both parties have destroyed our Nation at this point. Real Conservatism is the only choice left for them. Unfortunately the old school Republican Leadership continues to ignore this revolution and keeps forcing fraud candidates like Arlen Spector and Scozzafava on us. They better get it together soon and jump on board or else. Join the Conservative Revolution now! It's never too late to join.

I agree with the essence of your post.

But since the difficulty is maintaining the intensity, I'm afraid that many will view the wins in last night's elections, and simply go back to their lives, as though the war is won.

I hope I'm wrong.

Find it hugely funny how much the lefties have their knickers in a twist over today's election results. Really came as a huge surprise to them. Hello! It shouldn't be a surprise since middle America is still reeling from the fact Obama actually won. They now realize they got caught sleeping on the job! It was a great shock to the system, and now middle America are coming to their senses and attempting to make things right again. The 08 election will eventually be seen as a blip in the great scheme of things. Obama has scared the crap out of everyone and the only good thing about Him is that He has energized real Americans to get off their duffs and get Him out of there.

Racist! OH wait, you said Knickers...my bad. Carry on.

IMO, when polls are done correctly to gauge the basic values of the American voter, well rounded polls on a broad assortment of issues, the majority fall right of center. That group stretches well into the independents, libertarians and democrats.

So to see things taking place like the reactions at town hall meetings, the tea parties and yesterdays elections is not surprising at all, given the fanatical direction of the White House and the leadership of the house and senate.

The blue dogs may very well take notice now and begin to stiffen their resolve even more than they already have. The claims will be made by the leadership and the White House that this is not a reflection of Obama's principals and direction, but, it is, very much so.

So get ready as those knickers may burst before it's all over!

Mike, Every news quote on the day after their loss of NJ and VA was spun towards the premise this loss on their part was due to other factors, but without a doubt it was a referendum on Obama's policies. I amazes me how much in denial the Obama camp are in. They still refuse to see the grassroots referendum against them. I just can't believe they are that stupid. It's almost like saying "if they ignore it long enough it will go away". I'm truly amazed at their denial of the facts. In all my long life, I have never experienced such a strong anti-government feeling in this country and Obama and Pelosi are in such a denial mode. All to their eventual detriment. It's so obvious and they just refuse to see it. Are they that cocooned in Washington that they can't hear what the people are saying?

Oscar Wilde famously said:
“There are only two tragedies in life: one is not getting what one wants, and the other is getting it.”

1. Yes, there was a validation of the recent and regular polls indicating that America is a center right nation.

2. Virginia merely went back into the column where it can usuallly be found. Outside of the northern area adjacent to D.C., it is a red state.

3. NJ is the most telling, as it is a tried-and-true blue state.

4. NJ clearly indicates that President Obama does not have 'coattails,' as he visited NJ five times to no avail.

5. The Owens victory in CD23 indicates that the vaunted conservative groundswell may not be as powerful as has been reported. Garamendi won in California, so that is two more Democrats in the House.

6. While the rebirth of vocal conservativism was apparent, and sent a message to the leaders of the Republican party- as well as many Democrats, if the folks who sent the message believe that their job is done, it will be lost in the wind.

7. As Ben Stein reported on CNN, there is no more gifted politician on the scene than President Obama, who still maintained a 50% approval by Virginians after the vote. All indications are that he will be reelected. One can only hope that he has an opposition Congress after '10.

I don't think we have to wait until 2010. It's clear--after loosing NJ & getting democrat tails waxed in Virginia--Obama/Pelosi are going to have a lot of opposition right now.
It's just going to be with a lot of congressmen/women with D's behind their names--
