Also, the Democratic party’s vote counting machine must be dismantled. The criminal, illegal and deceased must be purged from the voting lists
If Republicans win a majority in either or both houses there will be a full court press for two years about the mean ole Pubies, how they want granny to die in the street, and want children to die from starmvationb and won't keep throwing money down the rat hole of Social inSecurity.
With out real congressional leadership we would be better off being minority underdogs by a vote or two in both houses.
That will give us two solid years to PI$$ on Obozo's parade and belittle and besmirch every thing the dimmies do. We need to educate the American people and we need to get rid of Michael "Spineless" Steele and replace him with some one that is a true conservative. Steele want to be loved by his fellow Blacks rather than get the Conservative message out.
You’re correct, the Dems are in total-war mode and take no prisoners unless it is to emotionally torture them. People have been pleading with the Republicans to recognize the gravity of what the Dems intend and the seriousness with which they should be confronting them, but nothing ever seems to register in the GOP establishment. No offense to John Boehner, he is a fine and decent man but he is no war chief. He really doesn’t bring any fire in the belly and that is exactly what the American people need right now. They need a leader who firmly subscribes to our foundational principles, who has lived in the real world for at least 40 years, having to scrape by on the rules imposed by the ruling class and who both speaks and writes clearly and sensibly (though not necessarily charitably). He or she must bring that fire. Those who look like they might qualify are all outsiders: Ryan, Bachmann, Blackburn, Jindal, Palin. They carry no weight with the Party leaders. This has generally been the case in the Republican Party for as long as I can remember (and I can remember the 1964 convention, though only on TV). This is our problem: the only leaders we have with any kind of intentions are those out to remake the place to suit themselves and generate maximum personal profit, in power, prestige, authority and, oh yes, a ton of money to play with.
We need a Cincinnatus and we need that person now!
But word out of Washington is that GOP leaders and strategists are squeamish about embracing it as an election-year platform.
The GOP so much potential so little leadership.
Republicans will never win another election until the machinery at the ballot box is repaired. The democrats control the voting process and whether or not absentee ballots are even counted. They can also call on an army of dead voters to boost their numbers and if that doesn’t work there’s always ACORN.
Do not underestimate the socialists, they don’t play fair.
“With out real congressional leadership we would be better off being minority underdogs by a vote or two in both houses.”
I tend to agree. Enough votes to stop a lot of egregious Dhimmi legislation but minority status so that any effort by Obama to blame the Republicans for everything will ring rather hollow.
A bonus will be that there might be enough votes to dump Pelosi and Reid from their leadership positions.
Recent polls suggest that your scenario is exactly what will come to pass: maybe a 30 seat pickup in the House and 5-6 in the Senate.
Such a result will give the GOP its best chance to win back the WH in 2012.
Yep, Spot On. It is TIME.
If anyone is counting on John Boner to present anything remotely conservative they are delusional.
If Boner gets to be Speaker, Obama will be REELECTED in 2012.
NO!
Say HELL NO!
To these spineless encephalopods!
That's been my prediction as well. I think estimates of a 50-60 seat takeover are overblown.
I think they are going to roll out their 2010 version of “Contract With America” with a new name around Labor Day.
What was the Democrats platform in 2008, other than blame Bush?
To many progressives in the party leadership. If the republican party is to represent the small government conservative base, the party must be purged.
IMHO, the Dems made it clear to the youth and minority constituency that they would happily loot the system for their benefit. That is what "Hope and Change" meant in bald terms. The Media, no less Fox than any other, studiously looked the other way and pretended that the suggestion was the Dems intended to fix things in some kind of constructive way. We knew then and most everybody else has now been forcibly informed that they meant to fix things like Tony Soprano fixed rackets in fictional New Jersey (or, okay, Jon Corzine fixed them in the real place).
The "blame Bush" thing was a red herring, which is why it is not working now (not that it's that much further along: ordinary folk don't think in linear terms, it's always 'now' to them).
That is the ulimate goal.
Thanks for playing and nice try American Thinker.
Paul Ryan is never afraid to go up against Chris Matthews and expose him as the spitting, drooling moron he is every time he appears.
Boehner, Boehner, hmmm, I have heard that name before but never actually seen the guy. Wasn’t he on the back of a milk carton with “have you seen me?” written under it?
The first two I have no problems with the latter, my congressman, John Boehner is useless.
Vote Republican - They Suck Less.
