sillylittleme

Jumping jumping in. Howdy.

murphthesurf3

Everyone having a spooktacular evening?

beatlex

What’s up Docs?

killgoretrout

SLM–Sorry to disagree, but housecleaning is never fun. Having a clean house afterwards does my heart good, but doing the actual cleaning, not so much!

glenn

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?

murphthesurf3

Oh yeah, BOO!

killgoretrout

Hey KT–how are you and your mom?

glenn

Hey glenn. We’re doing OK. And you?

killgoretrout

murph – boo, and what if the vote ends up dumping them sooner rather than later

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?

glenn

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

murphthesurf3

Three more days to big day.

killgoretrout

I sure hope we keep the senate.

killgoretrout

no murph the voters dump the Rs, just cause the media has it twisted doesn’t mean it won’t happen

sillylittleme

KT–Same old same old but glad to hear you’re doing OK.

glenn

isn’t mc connell losing?

sillylittleme

Glenn….the medium trumps the message, propaganda gets the props, and Dems do not exercise good tactical discipline.

murphthesurf3

Murph–I did my part–early voting in GA, so I voted Thursday.

glenn

We’ve done OK for the last 8 years Murph.
