The latest lie from Nancy Pelosi is her claim that the Republican’s 63 seat pick up victory in 2010 was caused by voter anger over the TARP vote in 2009. A newly released analysis of the exit polls from 2010 shows a completely different story.

Claiming the high road, the lying Pelosi alleged that the 2009 TARP vote was some kind of “vote what’s good for America not what’s good for you” sacrificial undertaking by Democrats who knew what would happen but voted for TARP anyway This sounds nice but like so much of the rest of liberalism it’s a lie.

This was proved by Professor Gary Jacobson, of the University of California San Diego who analyzed the data published by Pew Research’s 2010 exit polls.

He found 56% of independents voted Republican...

Having watched the GOPe operate over the years, it is entirely consistent of them to oppose a huge new federal program but once instituted to oppose it being abolished. They like it both ways.

No more.

Someone needs to start a “Ted Cruz is Right” campaign. As more and more Democrats discover they aren’t all getting freebees they will be like the 16 Dem Senators up for election, wanting to postpone this cluster muck.

I think in 2004 and 2006 (and maybe 2008), there was VERY strong opposition to illegals. It would have been a winning issue for the Republicans to run on.

But the didn't.

Now, running against ObamaCare will be a winning issue for the Republicans in 2014.

Can almost guarantee that the GOP strategy for 2014 will not include opposition to ObamaCare...

The GOPe didn’t make it a big issue in 2012 either, it nominated the grandfather of ObamaCare for President.

Talk about dumb.

My own opinion now after decades of voting for the GOP (I will never vote D even if they talk Ted Cruz into running on their ticket) is that the Republican party exists as a foil, a straight man for the idiot Democrats, they pretend to oppose the antics of the other guy but they are really just willingly setting themselves up as the butt of the next joke.

Just imagine Sweet Georgia Brown playing in the background whenever you see Boehner in front of a microphone.
