Binnie should know better than to run on that in NH after Gov. Benson’s short time in politics.
The only way to avoid eating food processed by ADM is to grow your own food yourself.
Sure. Because the claim is that they would impose a faux “profit” requirement on government and thus attain the same salutory effects that a real profit requirement supplies in the real business world.
What’s funny?
Does a placebo produce the same effects as genuine therapy?
That you will argue both sides of an issue with equal passion and sincerity.
The GOP has the advantage that their platform consists largely of obstructionist nothin’-doin’. This makes it comparatively easy to mount aggressive hearts-and-minds campaign offensives while still delivering on their campaign pledges to do nothing and not let the Dems do anything either.
The numbersare looking very bad for the Dems. A 1994 style meltdown where they lose both the House and Senate is entirely possible. It’s not inevitable but they seriously need to get their act together in the next couple of months with a co-ordinated message coming from both the White House and the Congresssional Dems.
That depends on the ailment.
Speaking as a lawyer, I wish that were funny!
I wonder if that will ultimately be good for Obama’s administration and re-election, though. There’ll have to be some blame-sharing going on if the Republicans control the legislative branch.
And, as a raging liberal I hate to say this, but, maybe we could get something done. If it takes making the (R)-tards feel like it was their idea to get some real financial reform done, for instance, then fucking go for it. I don’t think they’ll legislate from nearly as far to the right as they’re campaigning.
They won’t have time, what with all the subpoenas and hearings about KenyaGate. Then there’s the impeachment; nope, sorry, no meaningful legislation, there’s just not enough hours in the day.
The problem with those kinds of polls is that “generic” Republican doesn’t exist (nor does generic Democrat).
In that case, what do you think the punishment would be for punching a senator in the face? Say, purely for the sake of the hypothetical, the assailant had no priors.
Gallop is always the worst of polls. The same day his came out another one had Dems and repubs tied at 41 with a large undecided. It gets play because it makes for loud TV.
I’m kind of wondering about the Republican enthusiasm peaking a bit early. Do you think it’ll last till November? Obama should start whoopin up the base in a month or so, maybe tossing some feelers out about now, if I had to guess.
If he doesn’t it’ll be not a moment too soon. I have been kind of wondering. For as much of a warchest as the Dems were supposed to have I sure as hell haven’t heard much and for the first time in a while WA is in play.
True, but many of those Democrats are, themselves, of the fairly conservative variety so for them to hold their seats isn’t such a stretch.
Strange that I haven’t looked at this thread since this new forum was created, and I find myself being quoted in the current last post!
Yes, that’s true. But couple that with the anti-incumbent mood plus the fact that many of those Dems will have to run from their record, and it still looks very good for the Pubs.
I look forward to the Pubs gaining at least one house in Congress. They’ll have to govern instead of just oppose. Obama isn’t going to start any new wars (I hope), and he can always veto anything outrageous that the Pubs get through Congress.
Quite the opposite i believe, conservative dems are not going to attract any republican voters, they are just going to lose democrat votes and enthusiasm.
