And the fools on mourning Joe at PMSNBC were the prime cheer leaders of that meme.

Today, (I had to drop by) between crying jags, they were saying such races predict nothing.

Even that Polutico idiot Mike Allen (sp) was in shock.

Anyone watching that excuse for a debate the other night knows that what you say is true... their bias will not allow them to admit it.

Now our biggest worry is that the dems will run Hillary and the race will be closer than it should be.

Good post but for us a super majority in the Senate is closer to 70 votes. We already know we can't count on the rinos and even when we control both houses the rinos chests will puff up as if they are important again.

Our biggest mission the next few years will be to put rinos in their place. We have to stomp on them every chance we get and let them know they are only there to pass conservative values, nothing else! They have to learn that and there are many ways to get that message across.

That's not going to happen if voters elect a Rhino in the Primary

"If we get a super majority, we must overwhelm the Left."

This is getting way ahead of ourselves. But first up will definitely be the repeal of Obamacare. After that work on reforming the laws and regulations that govern our health insurance industry (tort reform at the top of that), plus pass needed reforms to medicare along the lines of the Ryan plan. Lastly, we need to inquire on the health of Justice Buzzy Ginsberg every day.

Weiner was once Schumer's aide, as well. Weiner received govt paychecks until the special election to fill his seat. Now Weiner can start sucking at the public teat bigtime. The parasite will pocket:

(1) Congressional pension and benefits,

(2) govt checks for being Scuhmer's aid, and,

(3) govt checks for being on NY's City Council.

=====================================

Weiner was milking the system while "in sex rehab" relaxing on the beach in the posh Hamptons, and colluding with his backers to finance his future-------perhaps a well-paid sinecure reserved for "disgraced" lifelong politicians who never had a real job (see Eliot Spitzer et al).

Not to forget----Weiner also has $5 million stashed away---campaign donations for his thwarted mayoral ambitions. You have to wonder what the little creep did to get $5 million. The Congressional Ethics Committee (yes, that is a Cong committee) says the money cannot be converted to his personal use. I guess he'll contribute the $5mill to UNICEF to feed the hungry (/snix). But wait.............

HOW TO SPEND $5 MILL CAMPAIGN DONATIONS ON YOURSELF LEGALLY: All Weiner has to do is playact like he's a candidate for some obscure office, buy a mansion as 'campaign headquarters,' luxury cars for 'campaign use'.......pretty soon the $5 mil is all spent. All legal.

Not to forget all those endorsement deals Weiner is lining up:

"I've been using volumizing Pantene Shampoo ever since I was in HS."

Yeah Weiner could endorse Pamprin, Mydall and a host of other DNC products such as NYC vibrators. He could make a lot of money.

"Now our biggest worry is that the dems will run Hillary"

Remember, the Democrat party is not necessarily a party of ideas, but a party of groups that are not always in agreement. If they run Hillary and push Obama aside, the blacks in this country will have a cow. The Democrat party needs that 95% black vote to win elections. They won't get close to that if they push Obama aside. The Dems are stuck with him.

Maybe, maybe not. think about it. How many blacks, gays,union members are going to defect to us?It may not always work like that. At best, for us, they lose enthusiasm and sit home.

If they do that it won’t work - their real problem isn’t Obama, but the obvious and utter failure of the IDEAS that the Left has been pushing for almost a century. We have seen them in action and they suck, and have driven the country to the edge of a cliff. They can run whatever Democrat candidate they want - the people have seen what unrestrained statism is and does - and they don’t want it. I just hope this lesson remains in the minds of the citizens of this country for a LONG time, because we are going to need a long time to get our country back. People have a way of forgetting, and the lure of a utopia on earth will always be there - if only we elect “this” person or “that” party. Hopefully we will have enough time to rebuild our country and economy before that delusional Utopian statist urge rears its ugly head again.

That's exactly what will happen.

Cautiously, carefully, tread quietly and pray for a 2012 Republican L-A-N-D-S-L-I-D-E !!!!!!!!!

To get that landslide, the top of the ticket must be strong and conservative, which is why the Presidential nominee must be Mitt Romney.
