GOP is kicking ass...

[pauldun170]

So I guess we have a few years of pointless "values" legislation being put up for vote

"HR ##XXX Keep America virgins pure act of 2011"
Summary - blah blah blah blah

(buried deep in the bill
----------------
Subsection 2394
Appropriate 90 Million for Heartland Museum
Appropriate 120 Million education grant to fund Creation Science textbooks
Mandate Creation be taught in biology and history


(President vetoes the bill)

All over Foxnews and Wallstreet Journal Republicans scream how Obama and his Obamacare want s to deflower all the pure Christian Virgins


2011 - 8 Special Committees are formed to investigate
Bailouts
"Obamacare"
Allegations of Obama not being a citizen
Allegations that Obama is a muslim
Allegations that Obama had a cigarette in a government building

The new guys on the hill will hold press conferences on how they are going to cut spending and fight obamacare (right before they up spending and do nothing)


I'm glad Pelosi is out though I'm not some idiot who paints her as some sort of demonic entity. She just did poor job of running things and got caught up in the us vs them (Its just like football or wrestling - we have to win win win!!) bullshit the Republicans love so much.

Unfortunately Boehner is an idiot. A genuine idiot.

I can't stand the woman...period and yes she did a $hitty job.

I'm also not a registered Republican so I'm not dancing in the streets for them either but closer to that party than I am the Democrats.

With you Randy, Pelosi is a Parasite> I don't really want to see anyone party running the table but Unless Obama quotes Linden Johnson and does the "I will not Seek nor will I accept the Nomination of my party for President" I think President Gingrich or the like will be addressing a completely Republican Congress 2 years from now.

The Repubs had a clean sweep in Ohio I think....

I think the Senate going Republican and the House staying that way are pretty likely in 2012. There will be a lot more Democrat seats up for reelection in 2012 than there were this year. In 2004 (when the seats that were just voted for were last up) the Democrats won only 15 seats, or 16 after Specter flipped, out of 34 seats that were up. In 2006 though Democrats won 22 (24 if you count Independents) of 33 seats that were up. Even if the country is pretty evenly split in 2012 I don't see the Democrats winning Senate seats at a 2.5 to 1 margin.

The Presidency is a bit tougher though. While Obama's favorability ratings currently aren't great, those who still view him favorably will be out in force to vote for him in 2012. If the economy gets better in the next two years that will naturally help Obama as well. Two years is a whole lot of time.

There is no one in the republican party right now that has reason to beat him yet. Sarah Palin is a joke.
