The Dems beat the crap ap out of the 'pubs in 2008, even winning the White House despite the efforts of many racist 'pubs to demonize Obama. If Obama gets a decent turnaround going, and it is looking more and more as if he will, the 'pubs will get trounced in 2010 and 2012. That, of course, will make the 'pubs go farther to the right, and thus continue their path into oblivion. The Dem's did not beat the crap out of the 'pubs. Maybe you your small, bigoted brain. The popular vote was only about 6% difference. After the previous 8 years and the Dem's can only pull 6 % majority? They are on shaky ground. Obama may get a boost from the economy recovering slightly, but most people are not giving credit to the government for the turn around. If anything they look at the government as goign spending crazy and none of that spending is helping. The economy is coming back despite the Fed's. The $Trillion or maybe $2 trillion by the end of the year the Dem controlled Congress is putting in play is not setting well with the people who actually vote and pay for it. Their immigration response is really ****ing off a huge majority of the citizens. You may have a job near election cycle trying to spin the developing election disaster for the Dems. Ronald Reagan won a landslide against Jimmy Carter 9.7% GHW Bush soundly trounced Mike Dukakis, margin of victory was 7.8%. Barack Obama margin of victory 7.3% He doubled the number of votes McCain received from the electoral college, which as you know, is the main focus of the campaigns. By any measure, it was a sizable victory for Obama and the D's. Sophistry. And look how long the Party with the "landslide" controlled the Presidency in most of those elections. Two terms would be just fine with me. If the R's get their **** together and come up with better ideas that aren't snake oil like they sold to Xtians, more power to 'em. I wouldn't bet on it right now. They seem bent on self destruction. There may be a huge opening for a viable 3rd party the way both majors are going. |
