I used the cowbell, before I didn't use it. (or words to that effect).
I think I saw it too. I believe it may have been in WSJ front page article last week about the Gubernatorial race in Michigan.
That's because AARP is an overwhelmingly liberal organization whose constituents are overwhelmingly conservative. The best way for AARP to advance its agenda is, paradoxically, to have its members stay home for the election. =]
Strange, ain't it?
I would like to see Time/Warner stocks or NYT stocks after the election.
Republicans holding both houses, no matter by how much, will be DEVASTATING to the MSM.
Pollsters will be really screwed (do customers get a refund?)
It also may mean the end of RealClearPolitics since they were bought out by time magazine.
One more time!
With feeling, people!
YES!
We should not underestimate the discouraging effect the implosion of Ned Lamont's campaign in Connecticut will have on folks like your letter-writing friend.
I was out in California about a month ago, and all anybody there was talking about was Ned Lamont, and how he was going to triumph in Connecticut, and bring a fresh(maker) voice to Washington, etc.. All of these people were from California, and none of them was talking about Angelides. Ned Lamont had completely captured their imagination.
Now that Neddie Boy is being crushed, and there will be no Senator from the State of Kos, these people are going to be angry and frustrated. Much of this anger is going to be directed at their own party. How many of them are going to bother to come out and vote for the party that torpedoed their hero, Ned Lamont?
"If KB gets 90% of conservatives (3% more than Bush) and 40% of "moderates" (1% less than (Bush), and 3% of liberals (11% LESS than Bush), that's 50%!
Does this include the fact that you are dealing with a different group of voters, or rather a much smaller subset of voters, this being an off-year?
Bob Beckel was on Fox this morning saying "is is a forgone conclusion the Democrats will take the house".
THAT is the taking point to make note.
The MSM is now redefining victory from TAKES ALL to takes just the house.
It seems we have some doublespeak newspeak revisionism going on.
Rush just read your excerpts word for word. :)
ROTFLMAO! I've never before used this particular overused word, but this time I have to say
bttt
Dude, it's not multiple choice!
Too bad Bob. All he is going to do is convince his party to stay home because obviously all the votes have been cast.
It's looking like it's going to be more than 1. :)
McGavick now 3.1 down in WA, Bouchard closing on Stabencow, and DeWine at only 1.4 back!!!
What will they do when the GOP GAINS THREE SEATS in the Senate???

fabulous isn't it!
Even though I am not happy with DeWine, this win will be great, because the dems were really counting on this one.
Not my analysis. It was courtesy of Freeper Dr. Free Market. However, if anything, the subsets would favor MORE conservatives and fewer moderates due to the fact that moderates don't turn out for mid-terms.
The AARP is nothing more than a liberal, nay socialist, lobbying group. I refuse to give those jerks a dime for their so-called benefits. They just want to steal from our children and grandchildren.
Maybe because I sent these to him earlier. I didn't get credit though :)
