Republicans mount shock comeback, erase Democrats’ edge in eyes of Americans

Yeah, well, back here on earth the Republicans will retain the House and have a good shot at taking the Senate. And Hillary is by no means a shoe in.

You'll hold but probably lose seats in the House, an amazing feat considering the lame duck status of an unpopular president from the opposing party. THe Senate? No way wiull the GOP take it. If anything, you'll lose more "red states" to the Dems. And, I suspect Hillary will not even win the nomination, not if Warren runs.
 
This is an incredibly accurate article that I wonder if Obamabots have the guts to read. My bet is they will attack the author and ignore the content as usual.

Obamacare Schadenfreudarama | National Review Online

An article about making losers feel like winners. Ironic.

How was that 2012 election? Are you ready for another ass whooping in '14? Pretty much assured, you know.

You can't even win elections in 2013, not even with Obama's approval rating dipping into W territory.

...against McAulife no less.


:lol:
 
So. It looks like thus far the effects of the shut-down have equaled out the effects of the Obamacare debacle. Going forward, mind you, the only thing driving the numbers will be the continued Obamacare debacle....

..... until we find a way to do something else stupid.

Worth noting, however, is that the poll is of registered rather than likely voters, which will lean slightly D, and that "hoping the opposition really screws up" is not a terribly good strategy. :) Gonna be funny to watch Democrats begin to swing against ole O-Care.

Next in line in the stupid department is an attempt to impeach Holder. While I would love to see him, Obama, and their 40 thieves gone, it aint gonna happen.

Like it or not, Republicans can always find a way to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory.
 
Republicans have a die hard fan club of faithful followers, regardless how bad they are at any given time, kind of like the Dallas Cowboys. The Dems on the other hand rely on people like me who abandoned the GOP because we recognize that they went crazy. Thankfully, I am not in the minority...Cowboy fans are.

Then there are those like me who spent the better part of a decade looking at the Lib program I supported as a young, dumb Leftist, and point by point realized it was a huge lie and fraud.

Demokrat Dreamz is how we have 17TRILLION in debt, 60TRILLION in unfunded liabilities, and a 600 MILLION buck website that took three years to build and works as well as... well... government.

I know... freedom. responsibility, limited government, equality under the law are terrible things. Socialism is much better. We are more equal... equally miserable, and there is only a smaller group that has much, much more.

Except the Democrats are no longer socialists. And, anyone calling Obnamacare socialist is totally unaware of what socialism is. THe last socialist act in the USA regarding healthcare was Geaorge W's implimentation of the Prescription Drug plan addition to Medicare.

But, you're too blinded by rage against the D's to see that.

:lol:

Since I am a lot older than you, been around a lot longer, it won't be my ass that is whipped but more like the younger people like you. The 2012 election was a status quo election which means no change. That was before Obamacare and when Obama had a higher approval rating than the 40% now. We tried to tell you and others but you wouldn't believe. Obama is an incompetent empty suit that 40% of the people still support. Wonder if it is racist to support Obama simply because he is black? Sure can't have anything to do with the results generated.

Obamacare is unsustainable and destined to fail, then what? How do you dismantle Obamacare? Single payer! And that is a trademark of socialism

Sore losers trying to pat each other on the back by pretending that they are the real Americans while the winners supported an empty suit just makes you look like sore losers patting yourselves on the back.

i think there should have been a provison in the law, ruling that if the insurance company denies coverage or cancels a someone's policy, and if that person dies as a result of his medical condition, the insurance company has to pay compensation to the family of the deceased in the form of money equal to the cost of the deceased's insurance policy.

THe ice at the poles is destined to melt. THen what? Sea levels rise. And that proves all the climate change screamers right.

Projections and a buck and a quarter still only buys you a cup of coffee..

I don't have to pat myself on the back, my resume does it for me as does the content of my posts which you ignore. You see, results don't matter to people like you who apparently have a job and who apparently aren't affected by Obamanomics yet. Hope I am around when you are and when you realize what a fool he has made out of you. I grew up a Democrat but the party of JFK left me. Too bad you don't understand that
 
Initially all liberal programs start out with good intentions and end up becoming permanent positions for administrators.

Perhaps you can now answer the question I posed to you?

The insurance companies were doing what they were told to do by the Obama Administration. According to Obama those policies were inferior and didn't qualify for any exemption. Insurance companies are now being told to re-insure those people. Interesting, isn't it? Good luck proving your statement

Dude, you're party lost an off-off year election to a total crook. How funny is that? That you lost in 2012, spoke volumes. THat you lost in '13 should really wake you up. But, it probably won't. I can see the denial setting in already.

When the GOP loses again in '14, what will you do? Blame the populace?

I have no way of know but suspect yes, some saw that as the power grab that it turned out to be. there are some very good liberals out there with good hearts, too bad they think with the heart and forget to use their brain. What was the budget of the United States then vs. now? how much of the budget today is on social spending controlled by whom?

Since I don't live in Va, quite frankly I don't give a damn about what happened there. The people of Va. are getting exactly what they deserve and you are going to get exactly what you deserve with Obama for another 3 years. Thankfully I live in TX

Amazing how you are projecting 2014 elections now

they could have offered better policies that covered the people.

there is nothing free about the free market.
 
here is what you did, you took a negative view of america based on 1929.

then you put on a positive view of France and Russia.....one being socialist and the other communist.

you were making a comparison............and so was i.

Only in your own mind. I simply pointed out that they had revolutions. And that is what is called a fact of history.

Its not an either or choice you know. :doh:roll:

Free markets allow people to choose, the problem is if people don't choose to take what liberals want they have to be eliminated. In the free market people should be allowed to choose to fail and many have. I had 1200 employees, offered insurance to all including part time employees, less than 50% elected to take the insurance. Should I have forced the others? Costs were less than Obamacare now or at best I can tell. Only in the liberal world should the govt. tell the private citizen exactly what they need or want

Sure seems to be either or as those thinking with their hearts still support liberalism in spite of their brain showing them the actual data that shows liberalism to be a disaster

Tell that to the 4.5 million who had their policies cancelled that Obama now wants to have reinstated.

you say they all had revolutions, then what does the "Great Depression hit in 1929", have to do with it.

you imposed a negative on america using 1929, yet you imposed no negative on the other two, in fact you acted as through they were some how more enlighten over america.

peoples lives should not be dictated by how much they are worth in monetary value.

what is worse in your opinion? Burning 100,000 dollars in a furnace, or 100,000 people? both are illegal, but which should be considered the greater tragedy.
