The Mid-Terms Results Thread [W:517]

Re: The Mid-Terms Results Thread

Another whiny false equivalence. Why don't you look up how many investigations by comparison before you say it was so similar. Lol

You must be joking or don't remember. They couldn't wait to get going. They wanted to put the entire WH in jail if they could. Then, they came up with nothing. Of course, the press ignored it. It was a back page story. What a bunch of jackasses.
 
Re: The Mid-Terms Results Thread

Not saying it is. Embrace the fruitcakes of your party and let them go ape**** crazy faking up "scandals" and investigate nothingness as they have been for six years now. I encourage you.

Lets just say your input isn't needed by the Republicans. The good news, is you will get to see how sunlight makes the best disinfectant.

Cmon now we don't have to fake anything......some WH official who will remain anonymous will leak the info. :lol:
 
Re: The Mid-Terms Results Thread

Already have, and my congressman is Issa. :2wave:

Right on. Peas in a pod. Tell him to unleash the crazy and not to stop. Issa already has so...
 
Re: The Mid-Terms Results Thread

Balls to the wall man! Call your senator and all the other GOP senators and tell them to go all out scandal hunting. I'm all for it.

Ha, no need to hunt for them with these guys. They are usually right in your face with them. Just daring the American public to do something about it. Uh, oh. They just did something last night.

If it's such common knowledge then give me some numbers. How many investigations?

I'm only offering support.
 
Re: The Mid-Terms Results Thread

I'll bet you believe that the lack of enthusiasm for Obama has nothing to do with anyone believing him to be too willing to cave. Go ahead.

This electoral defeat may be just what the Democratic Party needed to wake the hell up, but not at all in the way you want us to. #seeyouin2016

Cave on what? He had total control of the Congress his first two years and there has been total control of the Senate since 2007. You continue to buy what you are told which makes the liberal elite ecstatic but just makes you look foolish.

By all means. If your boys actually find anything... good on them. But until then all they've been doing is wasting taxpayer money ginning up bs for political gain and finding nothing... yet claiming they did at the same time.

cool beans. Now investigate your hiney's off.
 
Time to move on Keystone Pipeline.
 
It seems to me the statists I've heard since last night have been unusually pouty and sulky. I guess they're smarting from the whipping their boys took. Seems like America's not quite ready to go Red yet, and that must dismay them.

Once another WH official leaks something. Its not us they have to worry about. Its the MS Media. So it won't cost us anything.

They haven't forgotten BO snooping on them. Now BO is at the end of the Free Ride and without any major cover.....and where Incumbent Democrats will want to keep their job going forward. That doesn't bode so well for BO.

Do you think BO will shake up the tree, bring in some new faces?

I guess Obama agrees with the American people on this...

Doubt it. The guard is pretty much all changed out. Attorney General, secretary of state and white house press secretary. I think if anyone else was gonna go they'd have already announced.
 
Re: The Mid-Terms Results Thread

Nate is a guru in the field. Hard to ever argue with him.

Exactly, one can see with a huge 4 point error in the polls how one would think things were a lot closer than they actually were.
 
Re: The Mid-Terms Results Thread

Yeah it was.....and I didn't just have Silver either. Those In-state polls were accurate there at the end. Especially with Colorado and Iowa. The Numbers that the Repubs won by is whats rockin all the pundits and the Demos themselves.

Well, polls are just tools. Personally I think it is a good thing that polls can be and are often off and wrong. If they were not, why not just take a poll instead of voting. But it is fund to utilize them to figure who has the best chances of winning.

Yeah, and pick up on the insider scoop.
 
It seems that 52 seats may grow by one or two, after the final results from Alaska are in and the next phase of the election completed in Louisiana. That would be getting close to the kind of majority that might start talk about impeaching this disgrace to the presidency. No President of the U.S. has ever deserved it more.

Obviously there are more than enough votes in the House, and six years on, more than enough flagrant dereliction, lawlessness, and repeated contempt for the Constitution to make up a bill of high crimes or misdemeanors. Shotgun Joe might not have to wait until 2016 for his big chance.
 
Re: The Mid-Terms Results Thread

Kobie, tell us what political party you support. Cause it sounds like the dems.

He has already posted that he is not a Democrat at least a hundred times. ****ing open your eyes.

My goodness, such a show of pique! Someone might think you were pouting about the results last night.
 
Re: The Mid-Terms Results Thread

I guess Obama agrees with the American people on this...

In 2008 Obama had 79% approval ratingsfor his presidency and gained control of the House and Senate for two years. Then he lost the House, now he lost the Senate, and his approval ratings are in the dumpster.

Incompetence has consequences as well.
 
Re: The Mid-Terms Results Thread

You're the only one of the posters on my notifications I am responding to at this moment.
None of them has a clue why.
I'm watching Larry Sabato with Wolf Blizter on CNN right now plus others.
I hope gloating from people like Rand Paul on all of the "Clinton losers" is the first shot of the 2016 election.

I noticed a few days ago when you were secure in McConnell taking over--that you began to bash him.
Your feelings on the filibuster play into that--always have the minority have their "rights"

I hurt today but I won't walk away from my Democratic party like
Republicans have done for the last eight years until they rediscovered who they were last night.

I'm out to the great outdoors right now and the Sun to help my local committeeman pick up signs.

With comments as I just saw from RNC chief Priebus gloating and bashing Obama,
the bad part of me hopes Obama and the DEMs stymie the GOP every step of the way just as they did to us.

Talk to you later and let's break the new records set by McConnell the last 6 years using the filibuster.

We got beat on a local level here in Illinois as well as on a County, State and Federal level.
People who think Illinois is a Blue state are nonsensical know-nothings.
I've lived through the politics of this state for 48 years .

If the Republicans are reading this as a mandate, they are 100% wrong. This was a hold you nose and vote for the least disliked party/candidate. At least that was my take on it. Watching CNN this morning, they stated the President's approval rating at 44%, the Democratic Party at 42% and the Republican Party at 39%. Approval of congress at 13%, I forget the exact favorable rating for Boehner, Pelosi, McConnell and Reid, but they were in the teens and twenties percent.

CNN went on and on. The fact was neither party and the president, congress is well liked. But the president was the face of the election. Then according to the exit polls Republicans won the white vote 60-38 vs. Romney receiving 57% back in 2012. Republicans lost the black vote 89-10 but in 2012 they had lost it 94-5. Hispanics, Republicans lost them 36-62 whereas Romney lost them 27-72. Women went Democratic 51-47 vs. 53-45 in 2012 and so it went.
