 On the Nov Election.
Talking heads are talking of a status election. That would be the best case, and two more years of highly disfunctional government.

That's possible, but the GOP keeps getting more and more radical. If we get a wave election, and given some candidates Te GOP is running for Senate I can foresee Dems taking seats. The House, keep this up Speaker Boehner. And at that point the Radical right will be all but happy.

Regardless, this is not a normal election in any way. We are in a very dangerous era. 1

Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

She used "regardless" when "suffice it to say" would have sufficed.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

I guess I'm one of the ignorant masses...I read it and didn't understand a thing she said :???:
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

What the Hell?

.....a status election.....

I think the little round troll really means to say "an election upholding the status quo," but I could be wrong.

And no, it won't be that sort of election, in which nothing changes.

It'll be an "upsetting the cartapple" election, dislocating the Democrats.

November is going to be GR8!!!!

The only question I have is if the HOR and Senate will be veto and filibuster proof for the republicans. 0bama goes down in either the third or quite possibly the second biggest landslide in our history.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

1. Interesting

What do you think will happen if Romney loses? Will the GOP response be: After losses with Romney and McCain we need more extreme candidates.

Will a Romney win silence the extreme elements of the GOP?

2. That be the effect if Santorum was the candidate.

Palin said it the other day...Romney is not conservative enough.

If this is a 1964 blowout, won't be pretty.
