Next year’s Senate will be better than this year’s Senate, but the GOP’s failure to run a conservative at the top of the ticket will make things more difficult.
David Espo has been called upon to don the knee pads for Obama tonight.
David, old buddy, let me just clue you in: your Messiah isn’t popular AMONG DEMOCRATS. He is facing possible defeat in Arkansas. He only carried 6 of 10 voters in West Virginia. His lapdog senators in Montana and Missouri don’t want to be seen with him, and blacks—yes, blacks—in North Carolina went against him 2 to 1 on applauding sodomy.
His budget went down 99 to 0 in the Senate. He couldn’t even get Chuck the PUNK Schumer to vote for the stupid thing. Israel’s leader knows he is a clown, as does Germany. He failed to get the Chicago Olympics, he failed to score the World Cup, and he is failing at looking presidential.
The ONLY thing he succeeded at doing was keeping GITMO OPEN and continuing the mission Bush started to kill bin Laden.
Gas prices are 103% higher than when he took office. Food stamp users up 45%. Home values down. 70% of Americans say we’re on the wrong track.
Your hero Obama is a lead weight around the neck, waists and feet of every Senate candidate. Sure, there are some safe ones...but Democrats on the whole are doomed in 2012. And hopefully for a lot longer—this is making Jimmy Carter’s four years look like the roaring freakin’ ‘20s.
I’ll be glad to see a lot of Democrat losers on November 6. And the ensuing “retirements” of several more after that day.
If the Ass. Press is saying that winning the Senate is “no sure thing” for the GOP, they must think that the GOP has it in the bag.

When the source is the AP, Expect Aspersiona.
Espo and Aspo. I wouldn’t believe that combo if they told me it would be a hundred degrees in Arizona tomorrow.
Short version: Dems are wetting their pants in fear.
No sure thing for GOP: a tight battle for SenateHow will we be able to tell who won?
McConnell, Reid. One blathers and the other slobbers, that's the only way we can tell the difference.
“Adding to the uncertainty, tea party-backed challengers are on the primary ballot against establishment candidates in New Mexico and Texas in the coming weeks, a continuation of an internal Republican struggle that Democrats hope will aid them as it did in 2010.”
In the short term, the Tea Party may have aided the Democrats by running Angle and O’Donnell. However, in the long run, the Tea Party will have a line-up with many strong members voters can be enthusiastic about. Lugar, for instance, was going to lose, sooner or later. Mourdock could be around for a long time.
That senator has been out of nowhere for a long time. She could have been Boxer's birth twin. We're not fighting a short battle for another RINO senate. We are fighting the long war for a conservative US government.
The AP headline on the posted story projects a more optimistic view for the Dems than even the pro-Dem writer Espo can.
Contrary to the MSM spin, the GOP Senate primary results in Indiana and Nebraska have improved, not diminished, Republican chances in November.
