Election 2010

Wednesday, September 02, 2009........Election 2009: Virginia Governor Election - Rasmussen Reports™

I don't see why people think losing this race would be such a significant setback for the Democrats.

Bellwether.

Big time...

Yeah, because the Democrats winning those seats in 2001 clearly showed the path of the next two national elections. O wait...

The Republiscum Party is finished as a viable political force. It shalll remain so for many generations, and sniffing each other's butt holes will not change that. Those of you who hide on these boards are out of touch with the real world. That is why the Republiscums lost the last two elections.

Another model for a wave election is 1994, when Republicans netted 52 House seats.

Probably not.

The leadership just isn't there right now for the GOP. They're quickly running out of time too. I won't believe it until I see specific seats in jeopardy. All this talk about generic ballots is/was/always will be balogney. The House is always about local politics and money. Does the GOP have enough money and enough local candidates to really contest so many seats?

I don't see a comeback for the GOP until 2014 at the earliest. Obama's going to be very difficult to beat in 2012 and his coat tails will be just as long as they were in 2008.

Not to mention if 1994 is your model, the Democrats lost seats, but Bill Clinton still sailed to a re-election in 1996.

I think people had enough and that Congress is gonna see many new faces. I don't think that 1994 would happen again.

Watching Dems step all over themselves with this corruption without any help from Reps is just too funny.

But regardless, what I would like to see most is Pelosi out. When she loses her speaker position in 2010, it will give her more time for further plastic surgery on her face. I imagine she will start looking like Joan Rivers twin by 2011.

As a Democrat, I'd like to see both Pelosi and Reid pushed aside. Not because of their politics, but because they are both weak and in over their heads.

At least we agree on something.

I don't have any idea how the 2010 elections are going to unfold, but it's going to be interesting to watch. There's a whole lot of people frustrated with both parties, and a lot can, and will, happen between now and then.
2 things that I think we can expect are:
1)More than ever i think people will vote for the specific candidate, rather than along party lines.
2)The campaigns will be vicious and full of bullshit that voters will need to wade through.

IF....and that is a big IF.....the GOP can get its act together and come up with a coherent message to oppose Obama and the Democrats, I think all those Tea Partiers and Tax Protesters and their sympathisers and advocates out there--current they represent no party--will go with the GOP. They will vote GOP purely as a more attractive alternative to the Democrats who are frustrating just about everybody other than the hard core koolade drinkers. (The latter worship Obama with blind faith and look to him to be savior of the world.)

The task for those of us who are currently disgusted with both parties is to convince the GOP to actually represent the values and ideals of those of us out here that they want to vote for them.

Looking better every day

 

[amrchaos]

Figure it this way dude if the Reps don't head off the Dems by 2010 this is going to get one hell of a lot worse before it ever gets better.

With what republicans have shown me since '94, I have zero faith in their ability to make anything better.

Might as well just issue the ammo and let's get it over with.

I am assuming we have no intentions of shooting ourselves, am I correct!?

 

[amrchaos]

The GOP is in a pickle in the leadership department. Some really brilliant folks out there, any one who would make a competent Presidnet, but none that come without some baggage that they created for themselves or was invented for them.

Mitt Romney. Competent and brings impressive experience, but his healthcare initiative in Massachusetts isn't working out as planned and would be used against him. And, though he's articulate, good looking, and intelligent, on camera he too often seems too slick, too polished. Turns people off.

Mike Huckabee. Also competent, exceedingly articulate and quick on his feet, and brings necessary experience, but he hurt himself with his proposed immigration policy and comes across as just too 'country' to be inspiring to much of the country.

Haley Barber. Almost the same scenario as Huckabee but even more focused and a tough cookie behind a somewhat 'aw shucks' country demeanor that keeps people from appreciating how smart and capable he is.

Sarah Palin. A rising star that cannot succeed because leftists can be some of the most cruel, hateful, and unconscionable viscious people on Earth and they are going to heap it all on the head of a smart, strong conservative woman or a smart, strong conservative black or other minority. And frankly, I don't think she's tough enough to put her family through that.

Jeb Bush. Pick of the litter in my opinion, but he is saddled with the Bush name and he can't get away from that.

Newt Gingrich. One of the most intelligent, reasoned, and visionary GOP leaders to rise to the top, but he brings so much negative baggage with him that I don't think he can regain the traction necessary.

Michael Steele. He's smart enough and in another year or two will have the necessary name recognition, but he has developed a reputation for being an appeaser instead of a fighter, and I don't know that the GOP want that right now.

Bobby Jindal. He's sort of like Sarah, young, competent, great behind a microphone, but he is also a 'minority' and therefore would be crucified as the left cannot allow a conservative minority or female gain traction. He may not be seasoned or conditioned enough to weather that yet.

We need a leader with the charisma of a Perot, the experience and track record of a Romney, the ability to inspire of a Palin, the ability to inspire confidence of a Jindal, the down home likeability of a Huckabee or Barber, the class of a Jeb Bush, and the vision of a Gingrich, and the willingness to be right instead of popular of a Steele.

So where do we get somebody like that?

Where is Reagan buried?? OH, I forgot, he has to be alive.

Well, that never stopped Democrats from voting!!!


PS--you conservatives do not understand socialists. You think it is all about the power for the "Statists", do you not? Well, in a Republic, the concept of power is only tied to the agenda you wish to pursue. For instance, after our lefties get what they want(cap n trade, UHC, end to the wars) they have no purpose to hold power except to change the economic sysmetem further to the left based on ideas that they have yet to come up with.

I claim that after they accomplish these goals outlined, they would happily resign since the Lefties got what they wanted and are confident that no right winger in their most deluded state will touch these policies after they leave due to their impending popularity. Thus long term politics favor the left over the right. The right is too weak to stop the bill and too liver-hearted to remove them after they are enforced. This country is marching towards socialism, and you so called Conservatives are only good at slowing it down, but not stopping it.

sorry for the lon"PS" but this is something I have noticed about American politics for a long time. The right wing is just inept in the long term.

the ability to inspire confidence of a Jindal...

You must not live in Louisiana. Jindal loses a lot of his shine when forced to actually make decisions. He was not at all helpful during the last budget crisis in the state.
