Any hope for Philadelphia?
Nah.
If you were to organize the neighborhoods you would make a difference.
I am reminded of the ‘slowly I turn’ skit.
In Arkansas, the last time Pryor (D) ran for reelection, Arkansas had 3 Dem and 1 Pubbie House members and 2 Dem Senators.
In 2010, two of those Dem House seats flipped, and Dem Lincoln lost her seat to a Pubbie. The 3rd House seat flipped in 2012.
Now, Pryor is the only Dem in the Arkansas delegation, and he is running slightly behind a Pubbie challenger.

Even though the Arkansas delegation has flipped, most of the new Pubbies are middle-of-the-roader go-along-to-get-along types.

I hope everyone reads and follows suit. The basics still work.
That's a nice bit of optimism (and who can't use a lot of that) but two very local, relatively minor elections proves nothing in the big scheme of things in a culture which is provably going to the dogs, with complacent, oblivious conservatives sitting by consuming their vapid entertainment. Voter participation rates still remain at pathetic lows.
Such early, misdirected optimism tends to make more complacent conservatives who seem more apt to assume this attitude than Leftists, who fight all the harder when they win.
We must pause only briefly to celebrate, and then resume in earnest like we're still losing.
Do you have a link to that post?
Your link goes to his home page and I can’t find the post.
Thanks.

Indeed-—and congratulations to the Oregon Patriots for all their hard work that paid off.
We need to insure that as many Tea Party Patriots win nomination as the Republican candidates in elections. And this applies not only for candidates to Federal offices, but EVERYWHERE down ballot also. We need to increase the quantity and quality of our “farm team”.
Very encouraging report, bray. Thanks.
Remember in the 1960's and 1970's the revolt of freedom seeking youth against the "establishment"?
We need the current youth of America to recognize that liberals are the entrenched establishment that is dedicated to restricting their freedoms and destroying their economic future. Youth have a natural inclination to oppose the establishment and anything that seeks to remove their freedom. Conservatives need to tap into that inclination and help our youth understand the liberals are mortgaging their future to buy votes.
Of course, the hard part will be getting that message out in the face of the mainstream media and the entrenched public education machine.
That’s heartening news. The ground effort cannot be emphasized enough! People who are willing to go door to door and patiently explain the many ways Obama has failed can turn enough precincts against the Democrats to win the local elections. With effort, and intelligence, Democrats can be put out of office in record numbers. May God make it so.
“Of course, the hard part will be getting that message out in the face of the mainstream media and the entrenched public education machine.”
That may be true of the youth but most of them don’t vote. Get all of the grey hair you can find to the polls and win elections.
Congratulations on your win. Sounds like it’s well earned.
Do you have a strategy for when liberals go judge-shopping to get your measure declared unconstitutional?
Philadelphia will need a gigantic Ex Lax enema to clean all the leftist corrupt officials and marxists out of the “City of Brotherly Murder”.
Not going to happen in our lifetime. One saw some hopes for a revival in the mid-1960’s but that went down the leftist crapper like a bad seafood dinner.
When you have a mayor named “Nutter” and a Congressman named Chaka Fattah (or was it Chaka Khan?), then you know that there is no hope for the future.
Oh what could have been!
But then again, there’s New Jersey - Trenton, Camden and other assorted zoos.
Very good news, and thank you for your efforts and detailed reporting. I live in the SW corner of Oregon and it has drifted more liberal as CA people have moved here in droves. If the state unemployment is 25%, here in my county it’s more like 50%. There are NO JOBS and mj growing is rampant. It is ruining the county.
But...people are getting very angry at the leftist establishment, people of all stripes and garbs.
I doubt it in Oregon. The cancer has way too many years to Metastasize in the heavily populated northern neighborhoods of the state. Now if trees could vote that might be different.
Congrats Bray!!!
So, is this a Pyrrhic victory? That is, wouldn’t state law preempt this kind of local control over a state-wide project? I can’t imagine the state would allow each and every political jurisdiction along the line to dictate their own particular set of requirements and having each and every one grant approval.
It could be that mac daddy will turn out to be the worst thing to happen to the dumb-o-crat party which makes my entire day.
The dumb-o-crat slitter around the sewer with mac daddy and due his bidding and like everyone else he f’s them and never looks back.
