Precincts which historically report 110% to 120% turn-out.
Speaking of Blanche Lincoln, I could swear I heard this quote from her yesterday: “People have increased their expectations from Congress, and its just not fair!”
A picture of Specter hugging 0bamao, a la Charlie Crist, would probably cause him to drop ten points in the polls. The dims aren’t smart enough to figure out that AMERICA DOES NOT WANT A KENYAN MARXIST GOVERNMENT!
"Dem primaries? First I'll do my Baghdad Bob impersonation,
then I'll go into my Vinnie Barbarino act. Who? What? Where?"
=================================================
Reminds me of the WH's reaction to the Dem debacle last Nov. The New Jersey race was considered a "squeaker" that would go on till all hours. But two hours after the polls closed, the Repub was declared the winner with a comfortable 4-point margin (would have been higher were it not for Dem voter fraud).
OBAMA WAS DESPERATE FOR NJ's INCUMBENT DEM GOV TO WIN. HE KEPT CALLING CORZINE HIS "PARTNER." Ohaha was heavly invested in the NJ gubernatorial race. His carefully-laid plans----for installing a permanent Dem majority went haywire. Pulling out all the stops for NJ made Ohaha a VERY good target for voters disgusted with Ohahas policies.
The NY Times reported:
(a) every TV ad Corzine put on the air was screened by Obama's WH team.
(b) Corzine's aides gave the WH daily briefings.
(c) Obamas pollsters took over for Corzines polling team,
(d) White House operatives were on the ground for internal strategy sessions,
(e) White House operatives were orchestrating obscure pep rallies with Latinos (kept secret from voters),
(f) Ohaha campaigned in the state three times, Biden was there twice.
(g) Ohaha TV ads for Corzine ran relentlessly in costly NY media markets.
Other pertinent facts:
>> Incumbent Dem Jon Corzine (the wealthy loser) outspent the Repub winner about 4-1.
>> New Jersey has a huge Democratic registration.
>> Corzine bragged he had 20,000 paid union helpers on the ground election day to get out the vote.
>> There was a third party candidate siphoning off Republican votes.
>> Corzine had the power of incumbency.
>> Corzine had the power of a crooked Democrat Machine cooking the vote.
>> Ohaha hid $17.5 BILLION stimlulus in New Jersey.....for Corzine's reelection campaign.
>> The crooked NJ Democrat Machine was running at warp speed.
ILLEGAL VOTES TARGETED AS A WINNING STRATEGY
>> White House operatives were orchestrating obscure pep rallies with Latinos (kept secret from voters).
>> Corzine had a "Peruvian Pac" endorsing him.
>> Corzine promised to give illegals driving credentials & in-state tuition.
>> Corzine sucked up bigtime and REFUSED to enforce current immigration laws.
>> Corzine formed a Blue Ribbon committee of latinos and other hypenates who were using tax dollars to mine votes for Corzine.
>> Also sucking up to illegals was Democrat US Sen Robert Menendez, a Spanish-speaking Corzine campaigner.
>> Corzine appointed latinos to the Supreme Court and other high-profile state jobs.
And still Corzine lost decisively.....conceding 2 hours after the polls closed. (Coakley conceded 45 min after the polls closed----after Ohaha made an emergency fly-in to save her campaign).
THE UPSHOT According to Ohaha's slimy Press Secretary, Robert Gibbs, Ohaha was "busy with other matters" election night and "wasn't really concerned" with election results...an indication the WH is sucking up valium and vodka in order to anesthetize themselves from the aftermath.....trying to convince themselves the election was not a referendum on Obama.
The tsunami is ahead---in 2010-12.
====================================================
Ohaha has turned toxic---he is frantic---rushing to get slush funds (from healthcare nillions and unspent stim) money into the hands of ACORN, SEIU, immigrant groups, and others, BEFORE the Nov 2010-12 elections.
Even stupid Dems know that, for them, it's curtains in 2010-12---unless massive voter fraud takes place. They need to buy votes, and are pulling out all the stops to get billions into the hands of their operatives---ACORN, SEIU, immigrant groups, and others.

Sestak's numbers zoomed when he ran an ad saying----Specter changed parties to save one job--his--not yours.
That's hitting the nail squarely on the head!
Attack ads backfire on Arlen Specter
NY Post | May 13, 2010 | Abby Wisse Schachter
FR Posted by Scanian
In his primary fight with Rep. Joe Sestak, Sen. Arlen Specter has taken a calculated risk filling the airwaves with attack ads. Specter has accused the previously little known Pennsylvania Congressman of not paying his campain employees minimum wage, while in another ad (as well as during their only debate) Specter acccuses Sestak of being drummed out of the Navy. Now, it turns out that the strategy is failing. "Specter's attack on Sestak in the primary appears to have taken a heavy toll on his image.
Last month, 71% of Democrats and 35% of Independents held a favorable view of Specter. This month, those numbers have dropped to 56% and 30%, respectively. Overall, 50% of Pennsylvanians now hold an unfavorable view of Specter - an all time high in the Quinnipiac poll." (Excerpt) Read more at nypost.com ...
With "close friends" like Joe, who needs enemies. This is the definition of "close friend" in the Democrat party.
The Biden/Specter bromance is over?

THE VICE PRESIDENT: Mr. President, as we used to say in the Senate, I hope you’ll excuse a point of personal privilege here. I — Arlen Specter has been my friend and my confidant and my partner, and I his partner, in scores and scores of major, major pieces of legislation and issues for a long time. And beyond that, Mr. President, he’s been there for me every time things have been tough for me, and I hope I have been there for him.
And it gives me great pleasure, great pleasure, Mr. President, to now officially be in the same caucus with Arlen Specter. We’ve ridden the train for so many years, we’ve visited each other’s homes, our families, that it is — it’s just, as, again, a point of personal privilege, it’s just a delight to have no separation.
Mr. President, I’m even more pleased that Arlen’s independence, integrity and piercing intellect will now be sitting in a Democratic caucus. I think it will be a real added value. Anyone who thinks that Arlen is going to cash in his independence politically has another thing coming, but I think our caucus and our party will be better for it, and as a consequence, I think we’ll be able to serve the country even better than we have.
And the people of Pennsylvania are going to continue to benefit from his fierce — and I emphasize and I need not tell you, Mr. President — his fierce commitment to the people of Pennsylvania and to this country.
So, Mr. President, I am pleased to introduce a man of immense personal courage and unmatched integrity, my friend, Arlen Specter.
Now if Arlen could have gotten GWB and Laura to come up to PA to speak for him, things might have been different, as they were in 2004. People in PA though do tend to prefer incumbency.
Hopefully after today, Arlen can get started on updating the Warren Commission Report.
"Arlen, old pal, you ol' switch-hitter. You read
the cue cards correctly. Now you get payback."
And if Obamination ran today he would be blown out of the water!
Interesting that it isn’t CLERGY but BLACK clergy. This from a person who decries racism. Why does he have to talk with them anyway?
