“Obama’s proposed stimulus promises to create 3 million new jobs, but even if it reached that implausible goal, the price tag would be over $300,000 per job. And would they be short-term government jobs or jobs with a future?”

Statistics we can use!!

They don’t forget this lesson either, and will craft the first two years to avoid this trap. Plus, the GOP become terrible at candidate recruitment and advertising, so they need a big turn around on both fronts almost overnight.

“Even moderate Republicans are risking the wrath of voters. Sen. Arlen Specter is already hearing the footsteps of a primary challenge from the right.”

That’s the answer, voting the RINOs out in the primaries.

I think this is the script every time a Democrat is elected president since FDR. The Republicans leave the worst economy in many years and the Democrats bring hope, change, and happy days. Carter, Clinton, and now Obama .

The only protesters of Obama that will get any coverage are the Klan, Arian Nations, and nutjobs like Fred Phelps. So they will categorize anyone who opposes Obama is siding with them.

Correct. As well as the MSM propaganda wing, which has dropped any pretense of fairness, and also the changing demographics, which make the country look a lot different in 1994 than it will in 2010.

I really wish our side would stop referring to hardcore marxists as "liberals"

Call them socialists every day, all day long.

"If Obama and the liberals controlling Congress repeat the Democrats' mistake of 1993, it may be, as Yogi Berra famously said, deja vu all over again."

*****************************

If the conservatives keep on trying to reform government from Washington; it's not "deja vu"- it's Bill Murray's movie "Groundhog's Day"-

Red States have to form a "Red State Union"- support and consolidate and rip the power from DC- because Moscow on the Potomac is never going to give it up.

ACORN should not go unchallenged.

Said that history doesn’t repeat, but it does rhyme.

I just wonder how many political cycles we can survive because each time in power liberals tear away at this nation anew with policy that becomes entrenched enough to cause another “crisis” they can claim to save us from.

I have learned one thing this election.
Emotions are everything in a presidential election.
Appealing to the mind will not work on those that decide elections. Not that it should not be done, but you have to get the hearts first, then the mind.
There is no science to it, sure Obama has studied it, but he has the face, the look, the smile, the voice.
The delivery system is more important then the message sadly. And the MSM is a big part of that delivery system.

Tough times ahead, sometimes you need that though to do your best work.

Faced with 24/7 Obamamania on the media, the 60 million Americans who did not vote for Barack Obama are wondering where we go from here.

I certainly am. Judging from the coverage in the MSM you'd think B Hussein Obama received 98% of the vote!

The political left also will create amnesty for illegal immigrants, which will also include ways of getting illegals to vote in all future U.S. elections! The Fairness Doctrine will be successfully brought back, and conservatism will be profoundly suppressed because of this fact. Leftists will also make it legal for most to all criminals to vote in all future U.S. elections, and they will successfully find a finite number of ways to cheat in order to get what they really want in future elections. Leftists may even decide to do away with any future elections! Leftists are already working at doing away with presidential term limits! Other than all of these things, conservatism should do just swell in both the short-term and long-term.

The problem is, this isn’t 1993. The NEA has had 16 years to crank out tens of millions of new flying monkeys and many of our warriors have gone on to greater glory.
