    Maybe Barry should have thrown 300 million dollars to some of their states they represent. Now that would have been trying everything to lure them.
    Yeah, the GOP never pays to lure votes

    Maybe Barry should have kept the doors unlocked durning negotiations instead of literally locking them out. Now that would have been trying to do everything to lure them.

    Fair is for playgrounds full of schoolchildren, the rest of us jsut have to slog through trying to find out which option is better. Evidence and indrect evidence mounts against him and his party everyday. Rightly or wrongly, thats what it is.
    You mean evidence such as creating more private industry jobs in 2 years than Dubya managed to create in 8 with tax cuts...that kinda evidence?

    You mean evidence such as protecting home owners from over-zealous lenders...that kinda evidence?

    You mean evidence such as ending the war in Iraq and stop the bleeding of trillions of dollars on pre-emptive war that doesn't make us safer....that kinda evidence?

    I guess your type of 'evidence' is in the hands of its be holder but when you look beyond the beltway spin of the M$M and wing-nut radio, the real evidence speaks volumes about Obama's real accomplishments...

    Turn off your wing-nut radio for awhile...the Dems have every right to meet as a group and discuss the party agenda.....

    Yes, Americans can't name the ing Vice President but they're deciding how to vote based on their congresspersons and senators voting history.

    More likely people are like you and have no idea why they vote the way they do. @ being pissed off about your vote before the person you voted for even takes office. Darrin you're the poster child for voter stupidity.
    I wish we could call this just a 'Darrin' headcase phenomena but as I've pointed out in previous threads, with politics being so polarized, it only takes swaying 10% of the voting bloc to to swing elections today...

    ...the GOP will win seats in 2010 simply because 10% of Americans have fallen for the GOP lies and the tea-bagger pimping broadcast daily in the M$M...but has the M$M ever realy pressed tea-baggers about their agenda for large cuts in spending and social agenda?

    Its a theory? When 90%+ of democrats vote for an initiative and maybe 1 or 2 GOP senators vote for the same initiative I think we can safely say it is GOP obstructionism at work and not just say its a theory.
    Exactly, Obama and the Dems aren't in trouble today because they have 'failed to try bipartisan negotiations' to get things done in Washington, the opposite is true.....Obama has tried too hard..... that....pass the Progressive agenda that they promised in 08 and quit Holder from siding with the govt on protecting people's privacy rights...and let everything else be damned...

    A closer look at the numbers shows that evidence certainly is starting to build that Gallup has become nothing than a partisan shill for the GOP...

    Gallup claims it revised its screen etc under critiques of its projection of how massively conservative the electorate they project will be Nov 2. Rosenberg says its revision makes matters worse and renders Gallup polling not credible. How? Well..

    ..Several weeks ago the Gallup polling organization revised its measure of the "Congressional Generic" poll with a new set of assumptions about what the make up and partisan vote of the 2010 elections might look like. It is our opinion at NDN that the model Gallup came up with is so statistically flawed that Gallup should revise the model and its results or take it down from its website immediately.

    According to a new report by Professor Alan Abramowitz, the new Gallup likely voter model has the non-white, non-black vote at 13 percent of the 2010 electorate, and coming in at 52% Republican and 42% Democratic. Simply stated these projections are not a possible statistical outcome in the 2010 elections, and draw into question the integrity of the entire Gallup 2010 elections polling project.


    Latinos and Asian Americans went 2 to 1 dem in 08. Polling shows this year the GOP will do worse with these folks.

    The non-white, non-black portion of the American electorate went more than 2:1 Democratic in 2008 and 2006. Hispanics who make up the largest portion of this slice of the electorate, voted 70% to 30% for the Democrats in 2006, and 67% to 31% for President Obama over John McCain in 2008... The gap between the most respected Latino poll in the nation - Pew - and this recent Gallup model is 50% percentage points.

    Much of the remaining portion of this non-white, non-black slice of the American electorate is Asian. This community actually voted more Democratic in 2008 than Hispanics.

    Given the distribution of the Hispanic population in the United States, a movement of the kind Gallup reports with Hispanic voters would be evident in some of the states with large Hispanic populations. But there is no evidence of such a big GOP shift...

    Because the red-states are net recipients of federal funds, and a lot of red-staters/rurals are now covered by MagicNegroCare.
