#2 Well, considering that ACORN is still actively piling up dead or non-existent or illegal voters, and that ~~Pravda~~ the MSM won't expose Dem corruption, and that most of the younger voters have been indoctrinated in the public "schools" and have attention spans measured in seconds, he could just be right.

#3 Nah the MSM is going to go into full 24/7 hysterics about how the Republics are going to take everyone's health insurance away from them. Sure its a bold faced like - doesn't matter. It isn't as if they haven't done this before.

#4 Correction (sometimes even preview doesn't help):
Sure its a bold faced lie - doesn't matter. It isn't as if they haven't done this before.

#6 Everything depends on the unemployment rate. On that front, the outlook is grim. There's utterly no evidence of a rebound in hiring outside of lobbyists and (maybe, later in the year) Barry's crony banks and piggies at the Clean Energy trough. Small business is strangled by the absence of commercial credit, and large employers have used this downturn to accelerate the shift to overseas production and business process outsourcing for almost every function aside from sales, marketing and a few engineering/product management jobs. WHen the economy resets, it will be at a significantly lower level, which means that Americans will have a choice: either be grateful for small blessings and cultivate your garden/cherish your kith and kin, or else get f*cking angry at the political class that trashed this country and that's destroying our children's future, and do something about it.

Like finally get serious about replacing Tweedledum and Tweedledee with a new political class that's serious about halting our slide into Latin-style oligarchy and statism.

#7 This nation is in a flat spin economic and financial death spiral. If the dems have a "good result" in 2010. We're done, we'll just be bleeding out until the lights are turned off.

#8 Forgot voter intimidation, PBMcL. Holder isn't striving so mightily on behalf of his BP pals because of altruism.

#9 Dems 'unfavorables' look terrible, but don't forget that a lot of those are coming from the LEFT (yeah, seems impossible, but I assure you it is not.) When it comes to choosing between the Party who signs your 'too-small' checks and the one you think will make them even smaller, you know what happens. And pretty much half of the potential American voters now get those checks (in some way or another.)

#10 I expect some 4-5 seats in the Senate losses for the Ds and some 30 or so for the House.

I know the D-Freshman from Colorado is in serious poll trouble. 48% against. I would wager he ain't going back to DC after November.

#11 If the world has 7billion people, and the spending has reached $3trillion, that is about $425 tax burdon on every single person in the world. Now, condense that down to 350million Americans, then yet again to those able to work, and that is what the Dems, who have been setting the budget since 2006, have done in the first period of their 6 year plan.

Government makes a lot of money from commerce. When that flags, revenue generation falls onto property owners. And Renters, if you think that doesn't affect you think again. Businesses are property owners or users and they write your checks, wait until the withholdings double and food costs double on account of the anti-farming proposals which were defeated earlier but what the whole copenhagen conference is about, control over agriculture and secondary on manufacturing via taxation. Don't think so? You property owners, hows that property tax on your homestead? Try paying on 600 acres, surtax on account of blowing dirt, surtax on high pollutant fuel, surtax on transportation both materials to the farm then product from the farm to market, no working credit available from the local banks because they have to foot the FDIC bill for the big box banks.

Then there is the insurance. Say ya go to the hospital and your insurance company is supposed to pay out for the visit and doesn't, ya can take em to court. What happens when your insurance company is the court, who would you appeal to? Do you really think you will get a fair deal if there is even money available? Watch your local hospitals close up, ambulance services deteriorate. Then we have the traditional loss of services into neighborhoods with high funemployment - not the kids spending their parents' money to go surf but the areas where the gov check goes to drugs, then make money to live by hustling and crime.

It isn't too late. The majority leader of the Senate just called everyone who didn't haggle their vote suckers, I'd change my vote to no just for that complete disrespect. The grinch has forwarned his Christmas Eve raid - I'm not saying the whos would be waiting shotgun in hand but I bet the doors would be locked and the fireplace be burning with an extra log or two. And Dems, seriously, y'all need to get your group of friends together and play the good olde fashioned card game Bullshit! and re-learn how to call lies.
