Liberal Conspiracy Theorists, Are Republican’s Fixing This Election By Setting Up Hillary As The Dem Nominee?

Is this plan more diabolical than butterfly ballots in Florida, or voiding exit polling data in Ohio?http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSN1844…

Is This Exchange Between Hillary And Greta Van Sustren Every Republican’s Fondest Dream?

admin — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 22:45:16 +0000

VAN SUSTEREN: And if he says, no, I won’t do it, that leaves Michigan and Florida out. And does that leave you out?
CLINTON: No. Not at all, because we are going to make sure those votes get counted, one way or another.
VAN SUSTEREN: How?
CLINTON: Well, you know, you can always go to the convention. That is what credential fights are for. You know, let’s have the Democratic Party go on record against seating the Michigan and Florida delegations three months before the general election? I don’t think that will happen. I think they will be seated. So that is where we are headed if we don’t get this worked out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A credentials battle in Denver! Every Republican’s dream! If Hillary is to be believed–always a big “if” where the Clintons are concerned–it may become a reality.http://www.powerlineblog.com/

The Republicans Sure Showed Obama, Didn’t They?

Care to give your opinion on this article?http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/15/opinio…
Excerpt from the aticle:
In any event, the final score was unambiguous. The stimulus package arrived with the price tag and on roughly the schedule Obama had set for it. The president’s job approval percentage now ranges from the mid 60s (Gallup, Pew) to mid 70s (CNN) — not bad for a guy who won the presidency with 52.9 percent of the vote. While 48 percent of Americans told CBS, Gallup and Pew that they approve of Congressional Democrats, only 31 (Gallup), 32 (CBS) and 34 (Pew) percent could say the same of their G.O.P. counterparts.
At least some media hands are chagrined. After the stimulus prevailed, Scarborough speculated on MSNBC that “perhaps we’ve overanalyzed it, we don’t know what we’re talking about.” But the Republicans are busy high-fiving themselves and celebrating “victory.” Even in defeat, they are still echoing the 24/7 cable mantra about the stimulus’s unpopularity. This self-congratulatory mood is summed up by a Wall Street Journal columnist who wrote that “the House Republicans’ zero votes for the Obama presidency’s stimulus ‘package’ is looking like the luckiest thing to happen to the G.O.P.’s political fortunes since Ronald Reagan switched parties.” There hasn’t been this much delusional giddiness in these ranks since Monica Lewinsky promised a surefire Republican sweep in the 1998 midterms.
Not all Republicans are so clueless, whether in Congress or beyond. Charlie Crist, the moderate Florida governor who appeared with the president in his Fort Myers, Fla., town-hall meeting last week, has Obama-like approval ratings in the 70s. Naturally, the party’s hard-liners in Washington loathe him. Their idea of a good public face for the G.O.P. is a sound-bite dispenser like the new chairman, Michael Steele, a former Maryland lieutenant governor. Steele’s argument against the stimulus package is that “in the history of mankind” no “federal, state or local” government has ever “created one job.” As it happens, among the millions of jobs created by the government are the federal investigators now pursuing Steele for alleged financial improprieties in his failed 2006 Senate campaign.
This G.O.P., a largely white Southern male party with talking points instead of ideas and talking heads instead of leaders, is not unlike those “zombie banks” that we’re being asked to bail out. It is in too much denial to acknowledge its own insolvency and toxic assets. Given the mess the country is in, it would be helpful to have an adult opposition that could pull its weight, but that’s not the hand America has been dealt.
As Judd Gregg flakes out and Lindsey Graham throws made-for-YouTube hissy fits on the Senate floor, Obama should stay focused on the big picture in governing as he did in campaigning. That’s the steady course he upheld when much of the political establishment was either second-guessing or ridiculing it, and there’s no reason to change it now. The stimulus victory showed that even as president Obama can ambush Washington’s conventional wisdom as if he were still an insurgent.

Why Don’t Conservative Republican’s Like Mccain?

admin — Mon, 21 Dec 2009 10:48:23 +0000

Besides the fact he is pro-life, used to be a Democrat, seems to not know much about the economy,is pro-amnesty and doesn’t speak much about his faith.
The Republican voters obviously see something huge in this guy that they don’t. What is it?
What do the conservative Republican’s think about his Florida victory? Are they nail biting right about now?
Also, are the Republican party voters really swaying away from the traditional conservative values they have always looked for in their candidate?

Republicans, I’m Having Trouble Understanding Why You Think Obama Won’t Be Reelected? (warning Long Question)?

admin — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 10:48:45 +0000

First I would like to say that I am not endorsing one side or another, I’m just saying that strategically, the tide seems right for reelection, and for the democrats to stay in power in the midterms.
1. The health care bill. Assuming it passes, which looks inevitable, millions of new Americans will have quality health care, and rates across the map will be lowered. Rep. James Clyburn of South Carolina said that raising taxes may not even be necessary for it. I’m predicting that for this reason, Obama’s approval rating will be north of 70 percent by years end
2. The green energy bill which will create new jobs, voters are going to like that.
3,. It seems that the slight drop in the President’s approval rating is due mainly to republicans. Where Obama had a 30 percent approval rating among republicans in January, he only has a 9 percent approval rating now. The stonewall republicans will oppose him, but the majority of Independents and nearly every democrat supports him. This slight drop can be referred to as the end of the “Presidential honeymoon”
4. Last but not least, the economy. Most economists are predicting that by the end of ‘09 or beginning of ‘10 we will start seeing the economy heal. Such names as Warren Buffet, Donald Trump, Ben Stein are supporting this theory. Now as history shows us, Incumbent presidents are not defeated for re-election in a good economy. Or even if the economy is just better than when he came in, he can use the “Why would we want to go back to where we were four years ago” technique that Reagan and Clinton effectively used at the times of their reelection campaigns. Now this is not to say that the POTUS is necessarily responsible, but when things are going well, voters tend to see a change of scenery as unnecessary.
5. Sorry, THIS is last but not least. Forgot one thing earlier. Voter demographics. In both election polls and approval rating polls, pollsters are seriously underestimating the black and youth turnout which came out in record numbers for Obama. Also with the rising number Hispanic voters going solidly democrat, swing states such as Florida are becoming “Leaning Blue”
For those who are looking toward 2012, don’t all of these things aid Obama?. Again, I’m not supporting either side in this question, this is just what I have observed as a student of Political Science and was wondering how his opposition sees this. If you can repond to all five of these you are in the running for ten points. Much thanks.

How Can The Republicans Win The Presidency Without Nv, Nm & Co?

admin — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 04:45:52 +0000

I didn’t get any good answers the last time I asked this. So if you could answer the following I’d very much appreciate it, thanks.
When you look at the results from 2008 along with some other data, it seems that Nevada, New Mexico and Colorado are turning reliably blue. Much of this has to do with the larger hispanic vote that went to the Democrats 2 to 1. With these states, John Kerry could have beaten George Bush with 270 electoral votes. In other words, the Democrats no longer need Florida or Ohio.
NV: Obama 55% / McCain 43% / Margin 12%
NM: Obama 57% / McCain 42% / Margin 15%
CO: Obama 54% / McCain 45% / Margin 11%
The four most vulnerable traditional blue or swing states are Michigan, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire & Iowa. However Obama was able to win these states by big margins.
So how can the Republicans win without NV, NM & CO?
Will they have to try and persuade the hispanic vote to go GOP and stop the spread of blue in the southwest? Or will they have to hold the Bush states along with Iowa and New Hampshire together?
Please explain, I will choose the answer that seems most realistic.

Do You Agree With Congressman Alan Grayson Who Called The Republicans Health Care Plan A Death Trap?

admin — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 04:47:38 +0000

Recently in the U.S. House of Representatives, Florida Congressman Alan Grayson (Democrat) said that the Republican’s plan for reforming health care is a death trap by pointing out that they just want people to die. His commets were controversial and he will not offer an apology even though he compared the Republican proposal to the Holocaust.
Do you agree with Grayson on his comments on the Republican Party plans to reforming health care? Why or why not?
You can view his viewpoint at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-usmvYOPf…
I do not agree with Grayson because I wonder if he has taken time to listen to any of the Republicans or the American People who do not favor a government takeover of health care. After all, the American People pay the salaries of the representatives in Congress and the American People are not having much of a say on how they believe health care can be reformed in America.

Who Else Thinks These Attacks Against Innocent Republicans Are Fishy?

Like this story in Pittsburgh of a women who just happened to work for McCain, and this guy in Florida whos home was shot and he happened to be a McCain headquarter manager
Why do I get the feeling these people will never be caught, and why did that women in pittsburgh refuse medical treatment?
