Devastation: GOP Picks Up 680 State Leg. Seats (http://hotlineoncall.nationaljournal.com/archives/2010/11/devastation-gop.php)

Republicans picked up 680 seats in state legislatures, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures -- the most in the modern era. To put that number in perspective: In the 1994 GOP wave, Republicans picked up 472 seats. The previous record was in the post-Watergate election of 1974, when Democrats picked up 628 seats.
Heh, actually, he's worse for the Democrats than Watergate was for Republicans.

You are worse than the Kill Bill Pana starting all those shitty Greek Threads. Look at all those shitty threads you started, look...

At least DarrinS can be funny and WC fights back, you're just being a tool and pretend like one midterm election is worth a shit. Congress goes back and forth, it happens. Obama will win re-election because no matter how bad life in America gets, less than 35% will vote for Palin or Newt.
This shitty thread warranted a post from you. As do most of my shitty threads, if memory serves.

Keep telling yourself this election is no different that previous elections. James Carville predicted, just a couple of years ago, that Democrats would be in control for 40 years. Many Democrats were proclaiming the Death of the Republican Party after 2006.

Where's your criticism of those prognosticators.

mid-term losses compounded by 15%+ unemployment rate, the worst depression in 80 years, millions of foreclosures/foreclosure fraund, and 100s of $Ms of secret VRWC enabled by the VRWC SCOTUS.

The drastic /fail you've elicited over the last week demands a response and criticism. Despite my tone, I'll have you know that my disdain for your threads only developed within the last week or so.

James Carville is no one, he writes books and talks shit. Just like every other pundit. Just because you don't like how he handled the 2006 elections doesn't mean you have to act like a tool in 2010. Yes, the GOP was dead but they conned the American people into ressurecting them via the Tea Party. Reason to celebrate? Hardly. You and everyone else are allowed to have bad or strictly trolling posts, but your amount of pollution has gotten ridiculous. And the reason I'm not criticizing James Carville is because I don't hang out on CNN as much as I do here, and also because he's not trying to t-bag everyone with every thread he makes. Speaking of which, since you don't even have the decency to look at your trail of shitty threads...

You're right, James Carville is a nobody but, he was only one of a zillion leftist "tools" claiming the death of Republicans and the dawn of a Democratic dynastic rule.

So, I guess, it's just a fuck you. Read my threads, don't read my threads, complain about my threads (in them or somewhere else); I could care less. Who the fuck are you anyway? You're James Carville, a nobody.

I'm not sure what you expected by posting your snitty whine but, I hope it works out for you.

Hey, Stringer, here's a suggestion. Do to me what I've done to ChumpDumper; put me on ignore. Except for when someone quotes him (aside from that moment of weakness last week when I peeked at one of his posts), I've not seen his vomitous rants for quite a long time.

Yet, do you notice the inordinate number of my posts that are immediately followed by a ChumpDumper post (or Boutons_deux, another idiot on ignore)?

I'd never put anyone on ignore, especially not when they're in the minority on the forum. I suppose that's because most inbred, mouth-breathing, GOP ass kissing "conservatives" don't even know how to turn on a computer - and anyone else is just a whiny liberal. :wow

Glad you asked. My guess is they will pass all kinds of "job creating" legislation as long as it sounds great to the general public even if it it is stuff they would never actually want to be enacted. Knowing full well it will get stalled in the senate and proceed to bash Reid and Obama over the head with it.

Then Obama can campaign on "It's all Boehner's fault! He's an obstructionist!" to which the american public will respond "Who?".

Really Boehner is in an ideal position.

I'm mean the Real Economy, not the Casino Economy.

The Repugs will do nothing, except blame everything the Dems, while accepting no responsibility for the Banksters' Great Depression the Repugs enabled, and no responsibility for doubling the deficit during their 8 years in power.

I'm one of those guys that will say, has said, without any hesitation that Obama has fucked the democratic party for a good 10 years. Most likely longer. Many americans will seriously have a HUGE problem ever trusting a dem after what this White House has pulled. The same guys in here can argue all they want about what party did what over all of time and place but there is no doubt in my mind that the dems are pretty much shit out of luck for a long, long, long time and damn well deserve it. It's not like barry did it all by himself. He g-o-t-s the votes from fellow dems to pull his crazy ass shit.
Well, hold on now; the Democrats could foster some equivalent to the Tea Party movement and bring their rabid, far-left, establishment Democrats back to the center....

...nah! :lmao

Republican Tea Partiers ran just about all the reasonable Democrats out of office. All they're left with are Pelosi clones.

You do, of course, realize I'm opposed to Obama's policies, I think they are harmful to the nation; and, therefore, yes, I'd rather a party with whom I more closely identify, that opposes the party of Obama, win and he fail. Yes.

The GOP dictated the nationwide conversations because voters are too stupid to investigate the issues themselves. They found it much easier to accept whatever the GOP said about forthcoming doom and gloom, and turned out at the polls. It was a bunch of old white people, look at the exit poll info.

Nothing will change, unless it only gets worse to which they will blame Obama.

Somehow I get the feeling that people assuming electoral death for Dems for the next 10-20yrs are being as premature as the Carville books about GOP ineffectuality they are mocking.

Maybe the Republicans' strategy of blocking everything proposed will win them something in 2012, but it seems like a tough sell.

Besides still lacking a charismatic leader to run for POTUS, the GOP will have to answer to the same angry voters that took the Dems out. The Dems could make the excuse that the Republicans were interceding... can the GOP make the same excuse successfully?

I get you don't like Obama and Pelosi, that is fine, what i find absolutely pathetic is your stupid ass celebrating moderate democrats defeat (the kind you should be rooting for, the same way "leftists" should be rooting for moderate republicans). That shows you are more interested in your partisan politics my team vs your team crap than the actual welfare of your country, which makes you a pathetic piece of shit. I tried to give you a chance to step back from that extremist position, and you reacted by reinforcing it. Way to go, pathetic piece of shit.

Gov. Perry seems positioned for a run and has already signaled he may not serve the entire term.
