M$NBC: '2010: Trouble for Dems?'

M$NBC is using the fux snooze tactic of proferring their propaganda in the form of a question and displaying it in the chyron.

The republicants are falling apart but M$NBC decides it's the Dems that are in trouble. Go figure.

On the eve of election 2002:

10/31 - 11/3/2002 ABC News Poll

"If the election for the U.S. House of Representatives were being held today, would you vote for: the Democratic candidate or the Republican candidate in your congressional district?"

Repub: 48%
Dem: 48%

Pew Research Center for the People & the Press survey Oct. 30-Nov. 2, 2002

"If the elections for U.S. Congress were being held today, would you vote for the Republican Party's candidate or the Democratic Party's candidate for Congress in your district?"

Dem: 46%
Repub: 44%

News media was fretting over GOP difficulties then, but they still won.

Dems will have no problems in 2010.

:rofl:

I know you're looking forward to it. :puke:

from the other corporatist party. Doesn't everyone? :hi:

:silly:

This is the part where you deny doing that.

I see you got your one good "zinger" off. Self pity time? :rofl:

Oh, that's HENRY Wallace for the alert-happy types.

is if the general public (by that i mean those in the middle of the spectrum) believe the bs being thrown by those on teh far right.

i sense most of them don't.

but just in case it is true, i have my name in to be a member of a death panel

Hearing from Corporate Party #2 doesn't "balance out" the message of Corporate Party # 1.

watch for it to be repeated endlessly for the next year.

I remember reading/hearing that even in a worst case scenario there aren't as many open seats at risk to make that much of a change in the dynamic? Or maybe that was just the senate and not the house?

who wants to vote for a group that can't hold to their promises. Not voting for republicans does not mean a vote for Dems.

They got smashed in 2008, good news! They lost their majorities in 2006, good news! More people trust the Democrats than the Republicans on every issue, from health care to domestic policy to the economy to national security, good news! Obama's approval rating is in the high 50s, down from the low 60s, good news! The DJIA has gone up over 9,500, good news!

Because sooner or later something arguably bad will happen, then it will totally be the fault of the Democrats. So, good news!

people in Utah, Idaho, Wyoming and Alaska are holding things up. Sorry for the language, but fuck them, that's about 4 million people. Again, I say to the republic denizens of Utah, Idaho, Wyoming and Alaska: FUCK YOU

They have a choice. Pass real reform for the betterment of American people or go with the Republicans. If they choose going the Republican route then they will have lost me completely. I will no longer support in any fashion any Democrat on the federal Level. I will only participate in local elections where I know it truly makes a difference. Just one voter here but a serious one. :shrug:

The Reagan revolution was astroturfed!

People like us might get fed up and withhold $$, volunteer effort or even stay home on election day.

I hope our Dems can be troubled enough to sign on to winning health-care reform.

and Gillibrand's at risk to a generic Repubican. CT, CO, and IL will flip. The incumbents in WV and HI are fabulously old, ill, or both, and there are a lot of wildcards out there -- DE, for example.

It's entirely possible for us to wake up in November of 2010 with Bernie Sanders and Joe Lieberman the margin in the Senate.

As for the House, the majority will be trimmed to under 20.

We're primarying Bennet, and I believe either Dodd will retire or step aside to let another Democrat take his position. IL will remain firmly D - Burris isn't even running.

Hawkeye-X

She does even better than that according to Quinnipiac and Marist so I wouldn't be too concerned. CT isn't flipping. Dodd's polling has improved greatly since June. IL isn't flipping either even according to Cook.

Breath. It is early but even most prognosticators expect no D losses in Senate and some losses in the House.

...and an HCR loss in Congress, or a compromise that causes the 'public option or nothing' forces that make up the lion's share of posters on this board to stay home in a self-defeating snit, and you'll be able to watch purple districts go red, and blue districts go purple, providing the margin of Republican victories.

Given an opportunity to cut off their noses to spite their faces, progressives positively run to the knife drawer. We can generally be counted to do the Republicans' work for them.

The Divisive Level is THEIR COURT YARD

President Obama represents: Positivity, Healing, Dreaming, Solving, Advancing, etc..Not a 10 but the next best thing....Whiny

Negative Pubs not even close.
