TOSSING THIS OUT: Basic Principle: When the economy is doing well, the party in power, does well in the current elections. Our GDP is growing at 3.5% when 2% is considered satisfactory The Dow Jones Industrial Avg stands at 17,390 – record smashing Standard and Poors stands at 2,018 also record smashing Consumer Confidence at 86.9, highest since 2007 Housing Starts are up 6.3 percent Housing Sales are up 7.4 percent Gas is the cheapest in 4 years…. So why are the Dems on the edge of losing the Senate? Why aren’t the Dems, the party in power, waltzing to victory in the midterms and in governor’s elections and in state legislative contests?

sillylittleme

SLM…dumps who?
murphthesurf3

the Rs of course
sillylittleme

Murph–I think there are several reasons 1. Dems suck at getting this message out! 2. The media also sucks at getting this good economic news out! 3. Republicans dominate the airwaves. Can you think of any more?

SLM…I am unclear the R’s are going to dump who?

beatlex

Murph–I agree. Dems do not have “good tactical discipline.” Much as I hate the republican/tparty message, you have to admire their relentless pounding of the message, even if it’s proved to be wrong. A poster on Media Matters this morning posting all over again about the so-called voter fraud by Dems in the 2012 election–you know the viral email that made so many false claims about the amount of votes PBO got. I did give the poster a link to how that email was false; but s/he will probaby never read it, let alone passi it on to the person who sent him/her the viral email.

Beatle- for them it is who it helps, their patrons and sponsors.
murphthesurf3

Murph–perhaps this is a rhetorical question, but how can people believe those lies after countless fact checkers have said they were lies? Do they just dismiss them as “liberal media?” I just don’t get it, do you?
glenn

glenn – I wish I understood it
sillylittleme

Glenn. They do not beleive the fact checks- more liberal bias. It is easy. Once you say “THIS is the truth- then anything else mut be a LIE.”

I hope, after the disaster of 2010, more people have realized how important the mid-terms are.
killgoretrout

sillylittleme
7 days ago

KT–I do, too. I was very surprised at how many people were early voting Thursday afternoon when I went. Of course, since I live in GA, they were probably all republicans. I am hopeful that there were also Democrats like me. After all, the early voting was held at the library, and I know what a scary place that is for r/tp people.
glenn
7 days ago

LOL glenn. My polling place was a church. That’s scary for me!
killgoretrout
7 days ago

Murph–I guess. It must be nice to be so convinced of your “rightness”. IMO, that’s the biggest difference between Dems and r/tp people. Dems are willing to change their minds if presented with a logical, clear argument, based on facts. It seems to me that once an r/tp gets something in their head that they “believe” to be “right”, then NOTHING will change his/her mind.
glenn
7 days ago

2010? Ancient history. Frankly right now I am very angry with both the black and hispanic community- where is their outrage? more importantly where are their numbers? why this last minute push to get them to engage? what about young people? It seems to me that “our groups” assume that things will be ok. They will work out. “Their” base assumes that we are out to get them and they have to fight for everything. Thus they turn out.

Yeah Murph, that’s true. I’m hoping that the dem base isn’t buying it.

JJF…Roe v. Wade remains the law of the land, GOP legislatures have gotten around it in a number of moves that have closed clinics…justification…because we think X and we are going to do what we have to make you comply. Intrusion, you bet.

murphthesurf3

Murph, so when that decision is overturned will you call it the law of the land?

JJF–So, you are saying that a woman does not have the right to choose what to do with her body? That YOU get to make that choice for her by telling her she can’t have an aborytion?

I personally attempted to have a conversation with a very young blastocyst on this subject of ‘person-hood’ but the female carrier threatened to call the police! It was probably the head lamp and the speculum that weird-ed her out the most. The bus driver was kind of annoyed also too! They’ll be sorry when I get a job as a senior officer in the new Federal Homeland Sakuraty Department of Gina Police. I would be the first Gina General. It would require a department of at least 15,000 Gina Police to keep an eye on over 150,000,000 possible rogue gina’s spread across our great free land of merika. With the help and cooperation of the NSA and 17 other intelligence spy agencies we would be able to look into anything that seemed even a little bit fishy! By preventing the termination of the birth of literally millions of future personhoods we could conscript them directly off of welfare and into the military at the age 18 and never again have to pay foreign mercenaries to defend our freedumbs and rights here in merika!

sillylittleme

So the topic has been abortion. Well my 2 cents: I remember coat hangers. I remember women never being able to conceive after one of those back alley abortions. I remember women dying after one of those back alley abortions. I remember wealthy white women having the money to pay doctors for a DNC. I remember women getting abortions anyway they could. Of course, not all women, but…..
sabreen60
7 days ago

JJF–But why should I change my mind? I’m not trying to change your mind, either. You have every right to believe that abortion is wrong. I have every right to believe that a woman has a right to choose whether or not to have an abortion, and that the government s;hould not intefere in that belief; just as you shouldn’t.
glenn

The anti-abortion stance is of a religious nature. That doesn’t fly in a secular nation.

ALL of the polling precincts and ballots across our great land of freedom and democracy have been infected with EBOLA by Obama. The only way to avoid contamination and death is to stay at home and away from those places and documents for 21 days until the danger has passed or you may die! Please pass this warning on to everyone you know! Please don’t forget to wrap your trailer/home in plastic and to seal all openings with duct tape. Also bring your grill inside to cook on as carbon monoxide kills Ebola AND anthrax as well as to heat your home.

I want to say a word about the campaign I am working on right now. An entrenched GOP member of our state house with no Dem to oppose him. So the woman, college admin, stepped up. She is going to get killed in the election but she makes nothing but sense. Sense does not matter.
murphthesurf3

Murph, This is so over my head. It use to be “it’s the economy stupid”. Well look at how much better the economy is under a Dem President and Senate – even with the obstruction. If the Dems don’t hold the Senate than it’s not the economy. It’s something else.

Murph – we have had 40 years of growing conservatism that has failed utterly. Despite that and the rejection of Bush, the powers that be have pretended that things are WORSE now than before, and no one is laying it at the feet of the GOP. It will take time to make the point, but it requires us to take the long view. You made a HUGE dent in MO politics two years ago, and I hope some change will come this time, too. I fault the Dems and esp. the EmoProgs who are NOT Dems for a lot of the problems, but we slowly ARE making things better and can, i think, see change coming along the way. We cannot fix what is of 40 years duration in 6 years. We have to take the long view.’

JJF…I know folks in Georgia who are part of a system of voter registration developed by GOP and Dems in a bipartisan voter ID bill passed 8 years ago. That system is being dismantled by the GOP in the GA state legislature. Why? It is working too well. GA has had increased participation across the board in all elections since then and that expanded electorate is what has given the Nunn and Carter campaigns their gas. So, we have a Sec of State losing 10’s of thousands of registration, or elminating voting structures that have been in place for 50 years just because (no reason)…..google voter suppression GOP and you get lots of news.

Maryland is Blue. We have some Red pockets, but overall the state is blue. Voting is really easy. Once you register no ID is required – as long as your address is the same. I voted the other day. The poll worker ask for your name and then ask you to give him/her your address and DOB. If it matches, that’s it. You go vote.

JJF….no argument with that…here is my concern…..id systems like Georgias took two years and millions of dollars to put into effect and it worked really well. GOP and Dems are both dishonest about this. Doing it the way GA did it is what is necessary but each has reasons to continue a culture of confusion around this. It is the same with immigration.
