But, Obama didn't have much of a record, either.  King Andrew does, now.

Outside of voting AGAINST a bill in the Illinois state senate that would provide care to infants born alive after an abortion, 3 F**KING TIMES!!!!

But, nobody in the media did their job in letting people know that.  King Andrew has been all over the airwaves blasting out his accomplishments.

No one gave Obama much of a chance at first either. :mad:

True, but even the MSM won't be able to cover for the crap that Cuomo has pulled lately.

You think Willie Horton was toxic to Dukakis?  Just wait until the RNC and conservative 527's start broadcasting this 24/7, which they should.

Not only that, but there's this:

http://dailycaller.com/2013/01/20/five-hints-from-joe-biden-that-hes-gearing-up-for-2016-run/

Most telling is this little snippet:

Quote
The last incumbent vice president seeking his party’s nomination for president to lose it was Alben Barkley, who withdrew from race to succeed Harry Truman in 1952.

I do think that the RNC should leave a laugh track out of any compilation of dumb things Biden's ever said.

But the DC article leaves out one very small yet important detail about him sucking up to Maggie Hassan in 2016.

2014.  If enough people get pissed off and show up to vote in the midterms like they did in 2010, NH will go significantly red: both Reps, a Senator (Queen Jeanne the Spending Machine), Hassan, and the Legislature and Senate in Concord.

Will it be the bloodbath that 2010 was for the Dems?  Remains to be seen, but don't think just because NH went Dem in November it was a huge deal, because NONE of the races were more than 5-6 points apart.  NONE.  The Dems hold a 220-180 majority in the Legislature, and the GOP still holds the state Senate.

I agree.  Some people made excuses for him saying he was just tired and emotional, but the fact is that we had a lot riding on this election at that time.  He couldn't have picked a worse time to go bowing and praising Obama...oh man...I couldn't believe that when I saw it either. 

That bowing, scraping, and hugging should have been against his very DNA, as it would have been for any of us.  I do not have the time of day for fatso. 

Cuomo:  This latest stunt should be his deathknell for any presidency.  He rammed it through in a couple days time to avoid public comment.  Came right out and said that.  This country is not Manhattan.  Also, even the DUmmies say that he's into austerity, and they don't like that.  He's not necessarily Santa Claus, the way king Choom is.  Also, he's lilly white.  The press may not fawn as much.

Karin, also the fact that they didn't exempt cops from the magazine restrictions shows that they really didn't think this one through.  A lack of 'attention to detail.'  He just might come off as impulsive and stupid, no matter what the LSM does for him.

And didn't he sound like an hysterical teenager in every soundbite played?   :panic:

I was at a Fire School graduation dinner (husband graduated) a couple of days after it passed.  The legislation was mentioned as part of spoken remarks, and you could see a dark cloud moving across all 200 faces.  I could sense a slow boil.

A tiny state like NH has a 400-member legislature?

Who's minding the store?

There's your problem.

If Dems thought that what happened to Howard Dean in '04 ("The Scream") was bad, they haven't seen a thing yet. :overreaction:

If Christie runs, he will lose.  These moderates just don't fair well because the Conservatives don't like them and the liberals will vote liberal against a moderate. 

That's where I believe the betrayal came into last election...thinking that a progressive moderate could win against Obama was a huge mistake.  Even with the fiscal conservative values, wasn't enough to capture the votes we needed to win.  It was just damned depressing is all.  I just threw my arms up and said the hell with it because I had to drag myself drunk and numb to the polls this last election.

Well, there's the good/bad in the NH legislature, where the only qualification is that you're the 9th caller, I guess.

Then the bad part is that they only get $100/year and mileage to/from Concord while in session, so while they're not "professional" legislators, it's mostly retirees, housewives, trust fund babies, and others who don't need the money, or some combination thereof.

But then again, I DO know my representative personally, and have met her more than once.

I didn't care for Romney at all, but voted for him anyway.  A large part of the Conservative base, large enough to change the outcome, couldn't bring themselves to do that.
