"Actual Dissident Voters Replaced by Virtual ACORN Voters, Obama Approval Numbers Soar"
Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.

The Iraq war and President Bush have faded from voters' thoughts in the year since President Obama won the White House, leaving this year's Democratic candidates to justify $787 billion in stimulus spending despite lingering high unemployment and pushing a health care overhaul amid widespread voter skepticism.
<snip>
From California to New York, dominant themes are health care, Social Security, the weak housing market and misgivings about Wall Street bailouts. But for the first time in years, several polls show voters trust Republicans more than Democrats to better address the problems of the day.
California Lt. Gov. John Garamendi, a Democrat who should be a shoo-in in a special congressional election Nov. 3, is leading by single digits in surveys of his solidly Democratic Bay Area district. It's close enough — about a seven-point margin — to get state Republicans talking about an upset and Mr. Garamendi waging a fierce battle against Republican David Harmer.
Mr. Garamendi said the president is still enormously popular in the district but it's the economy that ranks as voters' No. 1 concern.
"They want the stimulus program to work, and it has been, at least in this district," Mr. Garamendi said. "Obviously, there is still unemployment and concerns about that."

The NRCC should be helping Harmer try to flip this seat. Harmer is a decent conservative, against the stimulus, pro growth. He deserves support much more than the DIABLO up in New York. Yet the NRCC is spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in New York pushing a radical leftist who probably can’t win, and ignoring this seat where they have a chance of picking up a Dem held seat.
I am contacting the NRCC to ask why they are supporting Scozzafava in upstate New York, and why they are ignoring David Harmer in this race in California’s 10th district. Here are the numbers if anyone else wants to call:

Also, perhaps those of us who donated to the RNC or RCCC should ask for our money back so we can support the conservative candidates of our choice.
| From the desk of cc2k: |
Candidates I support: Doug Hoffman for Congress, NY 23rd (PayPal), David Harmer for Congress, CA 10th (website for info). Please, spread the word about these important special elections on November 3, 209: New York’s 23rd congressional district and California’s 10th congressional district. |
Then RNC needs to pour money into the California race and leave NY-23 alone. Let us Conservatives fund the Hoffman race.
Buyers Remorse Ping.
“We wanted change but not this type change” Ping.
Obama had ‘charm’?
RINOs deliver spoonfuls of Socialism that is smaller so it's easier to take. Same party beliefs as the 'Rats except an (R) after the name.
I am amazed by the morons in charge of the NRCC. They back diablos while screwing conservatives. And then they have the gall to ask for money.
McLoser, Yellow Snowe, Grahamnesty, Floozy Collins, Newt Global Warming Grinch, Colon Bowel Movement ... the HuffPo wing of the GOP is 100% untrustworthy

Rich liberals in Nor Cal realizing Hope & Change is hurting their pocketbook? Even liberals love their own money but they usually set up foundations like Madoff clients to avoid paying taxes.
