With just a few days remaining before the midterm elections, the Democrats are limping to the finish line. We are in the closing days of the 2014 campaign, and in Democratic campaigns across the country, none of the real issues are being discussed. There is no justification for the Democrats to declare there is peace and prosperity, and certainly none of them are promoting a message of hope and change. The Democrats campaigns have been a series of denials, comical disassociation and outright clumsy lies that will only further alienate voters from the political process.
Say what you want to about the Republicans lack of a message, but the Democrats the party in power are clearly exhausted. Starting with the White House, they have nothing affirmative to say, and the final days of campaigning appear to be more about who is to blame rather than how to turn out the vote. In some of the closest races around the country, the Democrats are desperately attempting to hold on to power.
Senator Mary Landrieu is throwing in the towel. She dealt the race and gender cards all in one desperate hand in an interview with NBCs Chuck Todd, where she claimed that the people who elected her in the past have actually been sexist all along. And, she blames racism for the presidents unpopularity in Louisiana not his incompetence, the stagnant economy or the presidents anti-oil and gas agenda that has such a big impact on the state. She appears to be auditioning for a job with the Obama Administration (which wont require her to return to Louisiana anytime soon.) I wonder if she has already whispered to the White House where she would like to serve as an Ambassador.

I voted in Philadelphia against every brother-in-law job providing question and for Corbett because he just signed a good gun bill and against Wolf because he has a classic rat pol hate-the-face.
I agree. I’m voting, but what happens the day after they win? We still speed off the cliff, but at half the speed and twice the spin?
Ding, ding, ding ... we have a winner!
Stormin’ Norman is the new king of strawman arguments.
You got nuthin’, Norm ... nothing except your purist arrogance.
Sad.
Nope. I’m correct. Pretend whatever you like. Doesn’t matter to me.
Well, if you dont support Ted Cruz the chance to get that position we really dont have much to talk about.
The same Ted Cruz that was attacked by Boehner, McConnel and the rest for daring to challenge the GOPes’ besties across the aisle?
You really have guzzled the Koolaid!
Your GOPe masters HATE conservatives especially TEA Party types. McConnel vowed to “crush” the TEA Party. McCain called the TEA Party “a bunch of Hobbits.” Conyer smeared the TEA Party as “Racist.”
I don’t know what you’re smoking but I won’t have anything to do with it!
For what it’s worth, I have the opportunity to cast a vote for the worthless traitor, John Cornyn (RINO-TX), tomorrow. The man’s a fraud and a sell-out of the first order, in my opinion, yet he captured the nomination.
Agreed, but it looks like he’ll have an easy victory.
I voted nearly straight “R” but I refuse to vote for Conryn as well.
I don’t smoke
Just read your posts there HR. Let the libs win and all is well.
A lib with the “R” next to their name is still a lib.
Nope. Im just aware that actions have consequences. You choose to play tiddlywinks with known frauds, you will have fraud thrust upon you.
They remind me of extremely stupid girls who are repeatedly used and discarded.
“...but he said he love me.”
The ‘other’ one along those lines is even more accurate. “I promise not...”
I dont smoke
So you mainline. You must be on something pretty potent.
I don’t know what that means.
I understand your frustration Cowboy, but I’ve lived long enough to still believe in the long haul. We are gaining on changing things. Tonight we elected 9 more House members and hopefully some of them will be good conservatives. The old bulls are just that, old. They will now have to do battle with more younger conservatives. We have the Senate now and you can depend on Ted Cruz to keep things stirred up.
At the local levels conservatives are winning more seats in more states than ever. Things are turning. We gained a lot of new R Governors. My state actually elected a Republican woman as Senator to replace Rockefeller. First Repub. Senator and first woman Senator for WV. That’s progress. Mia Love won her race for Congress. Progress. I’ll keep voting for the bad apples if it means in the long run we get the whole barrel.
I hope you are feeling better about things after today.. God bless your heart and give you peace.
Big Hug
