FYI - folks - “it ain’t” working out in Florida.

Alex Sink the Dem woman running for gov is tanking after Obama Care and so is Bill Nelson - big time.

They just did a poll and Jeb Bussh would beat Nelson handily and even loathed Charlie Crist could beat Nelson in 2012.

The Japanese get it!

The Healthcare Plan is wildly unpopular and many Dem Congressmen are fighting for their survival.

Here in PA, Chris Carney (D) has started running very expensive TV ads to justify his YES vote. These ads are being sponsored by Big Labor (AFSCME) and Catholics for Choice. The usual suspects.

I never saw an incumbent in this area run such expensive ads, day in and day out, for just the Primary.

They are all running scared, the little bastards, as well as the Bastard-in-Chief.

(From Asian Times)....and now we know why he went to Aphganistan having not visited since taking office...

“Karzai’s China-Iran dalliance riles Obama
Concern that Afghan President Hamid Karzai is steadily disengaging Afghanistan from the grip of the United States and seeking friendships with China and Iran..... prompted President Barack Obama’s flying visit to Kabul on Sunday...... What alarms Washington most is that China’s position on Afghan national reconciliation fits Karzai’s political agenda and also accords with Iran’s interests”

Couple this with Russia and China snuggling up over their desire to weaken the USA....no wonder Bo got off his arse and went there. If Cina and Russia continue as they have, and I suspect they will, there is no reason not to believe their friendly duo could trump the USA...they are moving pretty swiftly now.

...main reason for this is to tactically shift quickly from his sinking fate as a result of the recent Healthcare Vote in the US Congress, which has brought out serious worries in his internal camp regarding his political viability...Thank goodness we've finally found an alert, intelligent, perceptive journalist to tell it the way it is - too bad we had to go to Japan to find him......

Thanks Jim.

Bloggers and international news consolidators (in the conservativesphere) who are picking up this Yomiuri story processed into English, are apparanly knocking off the re-packaging of it as their own work and research, and giving credit where credit is due, i.e. to Free Republic (and some of our enterprising citizen journalists/translators). ;-)
