Virginia and New Jersey Bellwether Elections

[Sinatra]

i am hoping the GOP can make COMEBACK

They already are - just a matter of how substantial the gains will be in 2009 and 2010...

Can't imagine Jersey not going democrat.

It could happen again. Remember Christine Todd Whitman?

That was a long time ago.

 

[EriktheRed]

You underestimate the anti-liberal backlash that is fomenting not just in the US - but around the world...

Or maybe you overestimate it...

1993 and 1997 are ancient history?

Considering a lot of posters lack of short term memory, yes.

I find it hard to believe that anyone would go out and vote for a Socialist Democrat at this point. Just take a close look around this country and you will quickly see that every State controlled by Socialist Democrats has become a Third World Nightmare. Just a little research will show this pretty clearly. Basically you would have to be deranged to vote for more Socialist Democrats at this point.

This is from McDonnell's website:

Bolling added, “By increasing the size of our economic development incentive fund and expanding access to the Job Creation Tax Credit we can attract more businesses to Virginia. We will also assure greater focus and coordination of job creation efforts by having the Lieutenant Governor serve as the Commonwealth’s Chief Job Creation Officer, and we will place a greater emphasis on rural economic development by designating a Deputy Secretary of Commerce and Trade to do nothing but recruit new businesses to rural parts of Virginia, where jobs are desperately needed.These actions, together with our More Energy, More Jobs program, and reforms we have previously announced for small businesses and higher education, will position Virginia now to take full advantage of a future economic resurgence. This is the kind of leadership the people of Virginia are looking for from their next Governor and Lieutenant Governor, and this is the kind of leadership that Bob McDonnell and I will provide.”

Because it's a Republican proposing it, silly!

I never said i fully agree with everything Republicans stand for. I was merely pointing out that you would have to be completely deranged to go out and vote for more Socialist Democrats at this point. Haven't the Democrats done enough damage in places like New Jersey? Hey if Jersey wants more Third World Misery than God bless em and good luck. Take a closer look around this country and you really will quickly see that every state controlled by Socialist Democrats has become a Third World Nightmare. Hey people have the right to be stupid and vote for more misery though. Good luck Jersey and Virginia.
