No...Barry will never give an inch like Clinton did. I don’t think there’s anything that could Save Barry.

Obama has the veto pen. So we arnt going to get any conservative policy.

If Obama does what Clinton did in 1994 and moves to the middle, the GOP will start compromising with him and he’ll win re-election in 2012.

Crushed like Carter...that has a certain ring to it. Bet it would make a great t-shirt design after the election!

Forcing Hussein to veto is definitely the way to go. We all know that his programs will be an albatross around the country’s neck, so if we keep badgering him with bills to repeal them, he’ll either have to keep vetoing and denying reality, angering those of us who don’t live in the land of fanciful unicorns and endless money, or flip-flop and admit that he was wrong. Lose-lose.

The GOP also needs to be smarter about picking their battles and controlling their message. They let Clinton and the media get control of the conversation and Clinton used them to look stronger as a President. That cannot be allowed to happen again.

"Can you imagine the gridlock if antigovernment, extreme Republicans take control of Congress? What will get done? As much as this will frustrate Obama and the Democrats, they can see the possibility in a 1948-style Harry Truman campaign against the “Do Nothing” Congress in 2012. It doesn’t take much to play out this possibility and for voters to recognize that the decisions Obama has made, and the legislation he has passed, will look awfully darn good as he battles for re-election."

No, the legislation forced on America by Obama and the Democrats will be like the dead fish the author mentioned, and the stink will only be WORSE by 2012.

There’s nonsense, and then there’s nonsense. This is egregious nonsense of the latter variety.

I see a Kenyan win in 2012 as inevitible unless the Imam gets a serious from the Clintons in the primaries.If The One is unopposed then the Democrats will flood the Republican primaries and join with the RNC to foist Romney on the Republicans as the nominee. Soetoro will beat Romney handily. Romney is this season’s Gerry John McDole.

Bill Clinton survived for awhile, with a Republican controlled Congress

Here's a difference....for some reason, the HOR and US Senate seemed to really like Bill Clinton. I get the feeling that they don't really like Obama. I mean we're hearing less and less of about what a nice guy Obama is or how intelligent he is.

Besides that, fingers crossed that McCain really on some level would rather help bring Obama's policies down than stick to issues like the porous border that got him defeated in the presidential election.

We have to hope. It's probably the last chance the US has to regain our greatness.

My mindset has been that conservatism is in a “point of no return” status, since just after the November ‘06 election. Leftists will, still, be in power in a variety of places outside of Congress, no matter what happens on November 2, and judicial activism, political correctness, the “dumbing down” of the general public, political bias in the MSM/entertainment world, political indoctrination in government controlled schools throughout the world, political cheating,...will all be ongoing things that leftists do, in the remainder of ‘10 and beyond.
