Like it makes a difference. Republicans will win and guess what? The government will get bigger and spend more money.

Same sh!t, different party.

I disagree with the first comment. Millions of Americans are becoming involved politically and the source of their enthusiasm is the Declaration of Independence and our Constitution.

Republicans are not going to be allowed to once again resort to Democrat Light. Conservatives and Independents are strongly opposing any liberal Republican. The days of Big Government have reached the apogee of irresponsibility.

We now have to get more involved and keep politicians "feet in the fire" of Citizen Wrath. Professional politicians no longer need apply.

Nice Information.. Thx for sharing this

information

"Republicans are not going to be allowed to once again resort to Democrat Light."

all they are is a lesser of two evils. It is all they ever will be.

my dream is that a political movement occurs, where the inevitable increase in taxation is accepted, because those paying the taxes have faith that it provides a long term path to sustainability.

(a similar tact as those who believe you can't address immigration, until the borders are resolved. if govt spending was 'bordered' in,
to the approval of a majority of it's citizens, I imagine that they would not resent taxes as they do now.)

not in my lifetime, nor in this world...

It's hard for any Democrat to be enthused by the bunch Republican-lite party that the Democrats have become. And this lack of enthusiasm is largely President Obama's fault. He, Emanuel, Geithner et al are a bunch of vile Corporatists and at this point I'm very sorry I voted for the man. Would I ever vote for a Republican? No. But in 2012 I will be voting my CONSCIENCE. Which means Green Party, Ralph Nader, Socialist Party, or whichever candidate or party aligns closest to my DEMOCRATIC values. It certainly won't be Obama next time.

Nice work not bothering to point out that a (later ill-fated) North Carolinian was on the ballot in the Presidential primary in 2004, maybe leading a few NCers to the polls.

Could it be that more Democrats are realizing their party has been high-jacked by Progressive Socialists ? Could it be that some of them are actually NOT in favor of the big-government, deficit- borrowing & spending this administration is set on ?
Time will tell, but I know for sure Independents won't be fooled by Obama and his minions anymore.
What's needed is balance -- neither party should have full control. When they're forced to actually work together, the people's interests are protected. When one party has all the power, they tend to ignore the people and vote for the party's interests.

Last stand Republican Party to prove you are true conservatives. If you get in power and do not prove yourself worthy of true fiscal conservatism, the party is dead. You will never have a better chance to define yourself with Barack Hussein Obama as President.

The turnout problem is not surprising. This often happens two years after the President from the other party is voted into office. it certainly happened to Carter, Reagan, and Clinton. The only person who seems to have dodged this phenomenon in recent years is Bush II, primarily due to 9/11, which seemed to have spiked GOP fortunes the following fall (2002).

But it is an ominous sign. I believe the Dems will lose the House in the fall, and there is an outside (and increasing) chance that they may lose the Senate.

There has been nothing Democratic light about the Republican party over the past 18 years. They have been shifting further and further to the right and off to the fringe. As for Republicans being in favor of a small Government, if you look at where they stand on the issues what you end up with is anything but small Government. The Democrats have not been in control of the progressive left, either. Dems have been in control of right leaning corporatists. They have not been true to their base and so they lack the enthusiam from their base.

I voted for the first time in '08 and it was for Obama. In January, I lost my job. It's May now and I have a baby at home and I'm scared. Everyone is worried about oil in the Gulf while I'm going broke. Any politician, democrat or republican, who can convince me that they're going to turn this mess of an economy around, gets my vote in November. Right now I'm just scared.

Jason-
I think the politician you are looking for is Mitt Romney (well not in november, in a few years). He is a business genius. Numerous companies on the verge of bankruptcy have hired him to help and he has turned their companies around. I firmly believe he can do the same thing for our country. He also reduced Massachusetts's deficit by 1.3 billion. He can save our country. Romney in 2012!

What's really troubling are comments to this story where people are saying Democrats are at the root of the budget and "big government" problems.

All it says to me is that people are intellectually lazy and just stick with things they've heard... sometimes over 20-30 years ago. If you're upset about debt, YOU SHOULD BE UPSET WITH REPUBLICANS.

We've always carried some debt but the huge deficits that have caused our current debt concerns were the result of Republican policies and presidents... namely Reagan and W. Bush.

As for big government, who created the department of homeland security? who supported the Patriot Act, which is a totally unconstitutional violation of nearly every Americans' civil liberties and created a police state apparatus. who passed Medicare prescription drug plan? who declared 2 wars and lowered taxes so that trillions of dollars were added to the federal debt?

And i'm not one to even worry about the size of the federal government... i'm more concerned with how well it functions and who it works for. the real problem is that Democrats abandoned the left long ago and ever since we've been cutting taxes without cutting any programs for years. not to mention that the Supreme Court considered corporations to have the same rights as actual citizens. the libertarians and green party are the only 2 political movements that actually address the real problem with the U.S. goverment... that the entire U.S. government has been purchased by the large corporations and now protects and fights for them as opposed to the citizens

Hey Mikey,
If you are a true socialist, you would be arrested for giving O'boy a reach around.

It's true--Romney is our best hope. Compare his acumen in business to Obama and the score is 100 to 0 (and guess who's the big O??). But Americans don't want a true business solution--they want freebies. They're not willing to work, they want a handout. They're the Me Me Me generation and the Instantaneous Gratification (Life is Good) generation. That spells real trouble. Were the USA made of my parent's generation, getting our economy back would be duck soup. Now, we're sitting ducks and the progressives are getting their union minions blasting away. It will take much, much worse times before this whole thing turns around. I just want to thank all those that voted for the Big O! THANKS! Now, where did I leave my dustpan and broom?

"Could it be that more Democrats are realizing their party has been high-jacked by Progressive Socialists ?"

- 6 million jobs lost in the private sector since Pelosi took office
- $2.5 trillion in deficits since Obama took office
- Higher taxes galore on income, business, smoking, tanning salons, medicare earnings, capital gains, in bill after bill
- An unconstitutional Government takeover of healthcare
- Amnesty for illegal immigrants
- Taxpayer funded abortions

That's the Democrat party. WHO ARE THE IDIOTS WHO STILL SUPPORT THESE CLOWNS??

"I voted for the first time in '08 and it was for Obama. In January, I lost my job. It's May now and I have a baby at home and I'm scared. Everyone is worried about oil in the Gulf while I'm going broke."

Jason, you made a mistake. OBAMA stands for "One Big A** Mistake America".
He doesnt care about your job. If he did, he would have been spending 12 months on THAT instead of trying the takeover of healthcare, then pushing to takeover the energy sector (cap-and-trade), then takeover the financial sector (financial regs), then unionize American (card check), then create a permanent Democrat-voting underclass (amnesty).

Every Obama is doing is about gaining power. If you give a cr*p about freedom, vote Republican and the message will be sent, and the economy will improve as well.

I don't know what you think is better than "corporations". The entirety of humanity is about corporations. If you think we will somehow change human nature into some kind of Kumbaya party you are living in some Utopian drug induce dream planet.

This is earth. We are humans. "Corporate mentality is in every part of life from infancy to death.

The problem with people who don't understand this is that they think life was so much better when we were either serfs or lords. We weren't.

A return to that life is what the socialism you are seeking is.

Corporate thinking is what keeps us as equal as is humanly possible.

Corporate thinking is freedom to think for ourselves!

Instead of your Utopian world where we run in a aristocratic maze at the whim of people like you who think you know everything about everything, and everybody. You don't.

I am not a rat in your maze! Go to Europe and live like the rats!

You should have been born in the 1500s where the Great Lord of the manor could care for you.

Give me LIBERTY or give me death!

Vote out the Democrats!

I cant believe how many people think that they have become constitutional scholars overnight.
Also, Shauna, I'm so glad that you have human nature all figured out. I guess 2000+ years of philosophers, scientists, and theologists were just waiting for you to come and clear the fog around the issue.
MY Guess is that you and i define liberty quite differently than you. Can you define liberty?

When the repub party both campaigns on fiscal small government issues, instead of just running on social issues and delivering pork to keep power, and when they are closely watched for backsliding, they can do OK. The 94 repub congress satisfied both these requirements, and actually did a decent job of restraining spending and balancing the budget, until Bush came along and corrupted the whole party.

As long as the Tea party is around, to get rid of the careerist pork barrel RHINOS at primary time, the repubs will do OK. The time to really worry about backsliding, is if spending is finally reduced, and we bring the budget back in balance, and the voters no longer worry about spending, and start worrying more about social issues and getting pork. That is what happened under Bush.

The massive corrupt debt, the massive corrupt vote buying, the arrogance and sarcasm! That isn't what Obama promised. That's not change its the Chicago Way! How can anybody support corruption and massive reckless debt?

To Jason and Rockyspoon.
The big problem with Romney is his Massachussets health plan, which is far to close to Obamacare. Romney can never run with the repubs best issue, repealing Obamacare, unless he repudiates his support of Romneycare, which he cant credibly do. I think this is a fatal flaw in his candidacy.

Unfortunately, too many other potential repub presidential candidates have serious flaws as well. It might be finally time for the repubs to depart from past practice, by nominating a new dark horse, rather than their traditional practice of giving it to the next in line.

Whenever their is a large movement of any sort it is followed by a backlash. The backlash does help to stop the forward momentum of the original movement, but causes no change in direction.

Make no mistake Obama was the movement, the Tea Party is only the backlash. The party in power will lose seats in the midterm. Nothing terribly surprising about that (in fact if you look at the generic poll leading up to the past 10 midterm elections the democrats should be much further behind since they are the party in power and they are actually about dead even) , but Obama will win the next presidential election and the backlash will fade. To the tea party: I'm glad you are having your moment, you have certainly been entertaining, just don't get used to it.

Jason,

If someone simply keeps TAKING your money and spending it on those who do NOTHING to earn or deserve it, ESPECIALLY ILLEGAL immigrants, does that make you happy? Do you think that those non-productive leeches are better for a capitalist country or worse?

While you may think that all corporations, financial institutions, and wall street are evil, greedy, money grabbers, guess who creates the REAL private sector jobs that make the REAL country go around?

Now, guess which party espouses hatred for businesses, corporations, and wall st? RIIIIGHT. They're call themselves "democrats" but I refer to them as Communists in drag because in reality that's all they are.

Try voting Republican for once in your life. You certainly have NOTHING to lose and a lot more to gain by doing so.

www.zazzle.com/mrunpc*

Funny how this article says some Dems are not concerned about low turnout. Go ahead keep your heads buried in the sand.

"Turnout among Dem voters dropped precipitously in 3 statewide primaries on Tuesday, giving the party more evidence that their voters lack enthusiasm ahead of midterm elections."

===========================================

It seems to me NOT to be a lack of enthusiasm but the realization of what the DemocRATic party has become, Socialist.

Socialism has not worked anywhere tried.

DemocRATic voters are finding out what Pelosi, Reid, Obama and his Socialist clan are doing to the country.

To me, the DemocRATic party is dying a slow death.

Sure you can raise my taxes, but only AFTER all governmnet workers (local, state and federal) take a 35% reduction in wages and pension benefits. They are the ones benfiting from the growth in government so why not have them support to balancing of the budget?

If your rep votes 'yes' for cap/tax, obamacare, cash/clunkers, stimulus, etc., a 'no' vote against them in November might actually save America. But if you prefer absolute power and corruption and utterly reckless spending with huge tax increase, go ahead and vote for the incumbent.

Does anyone in their right mind truly believe that the Republicans, after running up record deficits over the past decade, are suddenly now fiscally responsible and they'll be true conservatives if they get back into power? GET SERIOUS. The inflated rhetoric we've heard from the far-right over the past 15 months is nothing more than a sales pitch for the party to get back into power. No thanks.

Look, the congress right now is 59% Democratic, which is the most it hs been since the 1960s. So, with the immediate threat of the Bush Depression beaten back a little, some sluggish nonthinkers go back to their old ways. So the Republicans will gain some seats. But they will not come close to gaining a majority in either house. Charlie Crist, the independent ex-Republican, will beat the corrupt Cuban Marco Rubio for the U.S. senate seat in Florida. The Republican woman in Nevada is just crazy enough that Reid might pull it out. Rather than the 8 or 9 senate seats that the Repub propagandists are forecasting, they will probably end up gaining 3 or 4. So the Democrats will still end up with a 55 to 45 majority. Then in January they can eliminate the filibuster if they want.
Repubs don't get your George Bush hopes up. He's gone, thank God. His damage lingers on, and most Americans do remember the trillions of dollars he cost this country. And the lives of 8,500 Americans too. Plus the thousands who died unnecessarily in Hurricane Katrina. God did damn Bush.

I dont understand people who are angry about the bailouts but then talk about how wall street makes the country wonderful and we should all be so thankful.
Obama was not even president when Bear Sterns went down and for all of the nasty comments on here about the misuse of tax dollars and spending not a word of anger for merril lynch, citi, goldman, wamu, lehman bros, etc.
You are either disingenuous or chattel. You want consequences for congress but not for wall st. Wheres your citizens movement to bring consequences and rules for the people who scammed hard working American's out of their retirement? If you were so concerned about hard working American's then why is it so imperative that we limit the power and reach of government when there are other powers that can steal from us and mistreat us?
WAll street reform is a must no matter which party
proposes it, but finally after our manufacturing sector has been obliterated, the stars finally align and we have a chance to respond and some idiots still support wall st because to vote for their own intrests would cause them to have a personality crisis. They can't shake the brand. These are the same people that said "drill baby drill".

to Phill, you need to remember what caused people to loose their retirement. The democrats forced banks to give home loans to those that could not offord them. Albit that Wall Street did create the derivatives, but who really created them? They had to of known what was going to happen. An as far as who is watching? There are already two agencies in place For Wall Street, we have the SEC, you know the guys that were just busted for watching porn ALL DAY LONG and still have their jobs. Then the mortgage industry has their own agency that was created after the home savings and loan scandal some decades back. The government is ultimately responsible, if they had not forced these loans, then the derivatives would not be garbage and everyone would be fine. As for the health care industry, the illegals crushed that, coming over here just to have babies. Keep your heads in the sand and keep baming Bush while obummer destroys our country and keeps you riled up by keep mentioning bush. Why would you trust someone that demonizes the American people?

Oy. What a bunch of misdirection. This piece is about very low Democrat voter turnout in the first real test of what's coming in November 2010. The Dems keep confidently dismissing the looming electoral pendulum swing, with nonsense about buying higher turnout and enthusiasm. The base can always be whipped into hysteria. It's their natural state. But the Dems seem to be heading for significant losses -- perhaps the loss of the House, perhaps even the loss of the Senate, though that seems very unlikely -- because of the more significant bloc that put them into power in '06 and '08: independents. They're going Republican or staying home, it seems. Yes, a lot could happen blah blah blah, but Democrats have fumbled what could have been a lasting hold on power. Congress under Pelosi and Reid is off the rails. And Pres. Obama has been extremely polarizing, and his policies are unpopular with slight majorities of the country -- an amazing fact when you consider the falsehoods Democrats have used to cloak the stimulus, Omnibus spending bill, healthcare and financial reform. He's just no good, and don't kid yourself: his "approval rating" gets a several-point sympathy boost that won't translate to voter excitement for Dems in November.

Complete one party Democrat rule is the problem. Obama first years have been terrible becuase of this.

The Reagan years and Clinton years were some of the best because Reagan had to work with Dems in Congress and Clinton had to work with Republicans in congress.

Lets vote and turn congress Republican and get the Senate closer to balanced between Ds & Rs. This way there will be some balance and compromise and I think our country will be much better off.

EZ, so you supported Democrats for Congress when Bush was in the White House?

People often ask me whether they should be a Republican or a Democrat or something else, but as a graduate from Southside High School, I'm not allowed to endorse political parties or candidates. What I can do is tell you what the Bible says about political issues and encourage you to make a decision from there. In all actuality, few political issues are truly spiritual issues. As an example, we may prefer lower taxes, but the Bible does not endorse low taxes; all it says is that we are to pay our taxes honestly (Romans 13:6-7; Matthew 22:15-21). Taxes and many other issues (social security, universal healthcare, education funding, prescription drugs, etc.) are not spiritual issues the Bible specifically addresses. As a result, Americans can in good conscience have disagreements on these issues.

An issue the Bible most definitely “takes sides” on is abortion. Jeremiah 1:5 tells us that God knows us before He knits us in the womb. Psalm 139:13-16 speaks of God’s active role in our creation and formation in the womb. Exodus 21:22-25 prescribes the same penalty of someone who causes the death of a baby in the womb as the penalty for someone who commits murder. This clearly indicates that God considers a baby in the womb as just as much of a human being as a full-grown adult. For people like me, abortion is not a matter of a woman’s right to choose. It is a matter of the life or death of a human being made in God’s image (Genesis 1:26-27; 9:6). Therefore, Bible-believing Americans should strongly support candidates who are pro-life.

Another issue which is most definitely biblical is that of gay marriage. The Bible condemns homosexuality in the strongest terms possible (Genesis 19:1-13; Leviticus 18:22; Romans 1:26-27; 1 Corinthians 6:9). Gay marriage is an attack on the institution of marriage that God created to be between one man and one woman (Genesis 2:22-24). Endorsing gay marriage or even civil unions is basically giving approval to a lifestyle choice the Bible condemns as immoral and unnatural. Gay marriage, then, is an issue Americans must consider when they evaluate a candidate.

The Bible teaches that a leader in the church should be a godly, moral, ethical person (1 Timothy 3:1-13; Titus 1:6-9). This should apply to political leaders as well. If politicians are going to make wise, God-honoring decisions, they must have a basic morality on which to base the decisions they are going to have to make. So if there is a clear moral distinction between candidates, as Americans, we should choose the more moral, honest, and ethical of the candidates.

No matter who is in office, whether we voted for them or not, whether they are of the political party we prefer or not, the Bible commands us to respect and honor them (1 Peter 2:13-17; Romans 13:1-7). We should also be praying for those placed in authority over us (Colossians 4:2; 1 Thessalonians 5:17). We do not have to agree with them, or even like them, but we do have to honor and respect them. Politics is always going to be a difficult issue for Americans. We are in this world, but are not to be of this world (1 John 2:15). We can be involved in politics, but we should not be obsessed with politics. Ultimately, we are to be heavenly-minded, more concerned with the things of God than the things of this world (Colossians 3:1-2). As believers in Jesus Christ, we are all members of the same political party—monarchists who are waiting for their King to return (Revelation 19:11-16).

Obama is the movement, Republicans are the backlash which means Obama will win in 2012?

Small problem: Obama lied. He ran on a pledge of no tax increases for those under $200k a year; in reality he promised everything to everyone. You love socialist redistribution programs? You got it. You love no tax increases? You got that too!

He lied his way into power so does not represent any kind of movement one typically thinks of in these situations. He is unpopular on the issues. He is not a "movement": most Americans oppose bigger government, statism, etc.

Obama is a COUP not a MOVEMENT.

The Tea Party is kicking the wanna-be-tyrant out. It is RESTORATION.

Those who expect the Rep's to have suddenly got religion and begin to follow the Declaration and Constitution are fooling themselves. The ONLY way to restore our gummint back to its Constitutional authority is to elect Constitutionalists to office. Support the Constitution Party!

Elections are fraud. We have an illegitimate political system and an illegitimate government. The liberal fascist elite controls both political parties. Finance houses like Goldman Sachs, big media and big corporations, academic institutions and foundations make up the political elite class. The struggle between freedom and liberal fascism will not be solved politically. The elites will not give up power without a revolution.

The elites number in the hundreds of thousands, and although they have millions of freeloaders supporting them, the freeloaders will evaporate.

Soon all of the major socialist countries will be bankrupt. China and the Muslim oil producing states hold the cards. They have totalitarian systems. There will soon come a critical point when the Chinese and the Muslims begin making demands on the liberal fascists. Already the Chinese are making noises about Obamacare.

Wonderful to read!

Phil is one of those idiots that will blame Bush II for everything right up until he croaks.

What a sad pathetic bunch. Please November, come quickly.

The influence of any president, whether Democrat or Republican, over the business cycle is one of the most overblown things in our world. The economy is too large and is the product of too many different inputs for any one person -- even the president -- to be able to impact. The Federal Reserve and the Congress have more impact on the business cycle, and even then it's pretty minimal. But we act as though Obama (or Bush, or Clinton, or Reagan ....) can "focus on jobs" and make them appear.

What a president and a Congress CAN do is to run up our deficit, creating long term problems, and get the government's nose into everybody's business. Which both parties' leadership has done, but of course Democrats much worse than Republicans.

Voters of either persuasion, the best thing we can do is to push our candidates in a libertarian direction .... and if they sincerely go in that direction, vote for them, and if they don't, vote them out.

And consider the Libertarian candidate where such an alternative exists. It doesn't make a lot of sense to gripe about what's going on, and continue to send the same MORON back to Congress to represent you year after year after year.

Im actually not even a democrat. I think both parties are dirty and I mistakenly voted for republican presidential candidates several times. I was just commenting on the actuall situation and again you ultra conservatives go back to blaming obama and give no blame to people like Paulson, Ruben, and Summers ( or do i need to put their first names so you can look them up on wikipedia) I don't much care for anyone that supports wall street Republican or Democrat. Has it ever occured to anyone that neither party is on your side? I may have been vaugely critical of the rebulican party and then the BAY ARE PATRIOT and others automatically go on the defensive. THAT IS THE PROBLEM. You are so quick to defend "your side" and bash the other. The problem with this country is not with the left or the right alone. It is with the zealots on both sides.

This administration has walked on out Constitution, spit on our flag and all it stands for, and the liberal lemmings follow blindly. I know Bush sucked...especially in his second term, BUT all in all, our new president has tripled out debt, and has forsaken any kind of future for my son...the next generation. All I know is that businesses are going broke, whole states are too, and soon what's happening in Greece will likely start to happen here too. I can only hope that we can have real representation of the people come November. no more corruption, no more taxation without representation, no more huge, unreadable bills that everyone signs for the cameras...enough is enough. America is either gonna make a comeback, or become the North American Union. Either way, it's gonna take a long time to fix this mess that our CURRENT president has put us in. Wait til Bush's tax cuts expire...then we'll all see the true nature of CHANGE that Obama spoke of while lying to the American people. Embarrassed yet? I would be, but I did my research first before I voted for the "cool" president. I stayed home. I didn't like Skeletor either.

We need someone with Sarah Palin's style and Ron Paul's ideology.

Closest thing I have seen is Paul Ryan, congressman from Wisconsin. He has real potential. But, I'm sure the GOP leadership will ruin him also.

If the GOP wanted to win in the fall elections, by a landslide, they would announce new leadership: Paul Ryan in the House to replace Boehner, and perhaps Lindsay Graham in the Senate to replace McConnell.

The problem is, Boehner and McConnell are scarcely better than Pelosi and Reid. And so of course, Boehner and McConnell will never go along with the idea, because they care about themselves first and the party second and the country third.

The November 2010 elections will be historic, following the historic election of the first black President in 2008. And history will write that the country rejected its choice of President when it learned that he was a socialist who failed to fix the economy, accelerated the growth of government and its spending, resulting in rising unemployment, deficits and debt, and an increase in entitlements that threaten to bankrupt the country. It could have been much different if Obama, as he promised, was a post-partisan President who worked across the aisle on key issues facing the country. He could have followed the lead of President Reagan by allowing tax cuts to remain while not demonizing business. He should not have bailed out the car companies, putting unions ahead of secured bond holders. He could have held Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae accountable for the housing crisis instead of bailing them out and actually increasing their holdings (and those of the Fed). He could have imposed unilateral sanctions the day after his deadline with Iran (at the end of 2009) instead of waiting for an unwilling UN. Instead, President Obama is likely to make history as the worst President since Jimmy Carter. Fortunately, he too is likely to be a one-term mistake, one America will not soon repeat.

Maybe Acorns mighty minions of fraudulent voters with false papers, dead people who have risen, and illegal aliens didn't take the time to vote this time. That could count for the difference! Also a mighty Messiah wasn't running!

I worked the polls in Indiana on Tuesday, in a very heavily Democrat district. Only 8% of the voters bothered to cast a ballot--and that includes the absentees. 8%!! That is incredible to me. Start a rumor that our right to vote will be taken away, and watch that other 92% start posturing, stomping the streets and screeching about the rights they are too lazy to take advantage of.

The people who vote in primaries are usually "party loyalists". I welcome the news that the Democrat loyalists are dispirited. But where the Democrat Party is really going to be pounded in November is when the highly motivated independents turn-out. A lot of these people voted for Obama in 2008. But most independents describe themselves as fiscally conservative and socially liberal. These people are the backbone of the Tea Party Movement. They are mad as hell about what has gone on in Washington in the last two years and they think they were deceived by a President who ran as a centrist uniter but who has governed from the far left. I think they are going to break strongly against incumbant Democrats.

I would like to think that Republicans are going to make great gains in November and that, having learned their lesson, will govern better.

While the former may occur, unfortunately, I have no hope of the latter.

"Jason, you made a mistake. OBAMA stands for "One Big A** Mistake America".
He doesnt care about your job. If he did, he would have been spending 12 months on THAT instead of trying the takeover of healthcare, then pushing to takeover the energy sector (cap-and-trade), then takeover the financial sector (financial regs), then unionize American (card check), then create a permanent Democrat-voting underclass (amnesty)."

I realize that I made a mistake by voting for Obama but McCain didn't do anything for me at all. Anyway, water (and my job) under the bridge now. I agree with all of your points...especially that he doesn't care AT ALL about my job or the jobs lost by everyone else. I blame him. He's the President and the democrats run everything. I'm sorry now that I voted for any of them and if they don't address jobs and stop with all of the other crap, I'm voting repub in the fall.

Although they will obviously be trimmed, the chances of the big "socialist" programs (Medicare and social security) being eliminated is pretty near zero. Polls show about 10% of people choose these programs as ones to cut. When you refer to big government in terms of the budget, Obamacare doesn't factor in (21% medicare, 20% SS, 20% defense, 14% safety net (aka food stamps, SSI,etc.), 7% benefits to veterans/federal workers, 6% debt interest...).
The SS fix isn't too hard, but health care inflation and demographics of Medicare are very difficult. The fact that Republicans argued against Medicare cuts tells you that they'll only be tinkering around the edges on spending and thus taxes will eventually go up.

One comment is a Democrat now turned GOP because 'Obama is a corporatist'

another comment claims the Democrats have been hijacked by 'radical progressivism.'

these are opposites people.

You can't even make up your damn minds who or what your representatives are or what they represent - or even what YOU represent

- you have flimsy reasoning behind your disgust - until you actually figure out what you are upset about.. try something other than politics as a past time.

Phill says: "Has it ever occured to anyone that neither party is on your side?"

Daily, Phill. Daily. I laugh when the Republicans stick out their chests. They gave us Obama with their own horrible, social meddling leadership. They were so busy sticking their noses in everybody's personal lives, they had no time for Domestic issues. Now we are stuck with Obama. Next we will be stuck with them again.And they won't have learned their arrogant lesson either.

And the old Switcheroo continues, while two useless parties take chances apiece ruining America. Until I see an Independent candidate who can trash these two crazy hijacked extremist parties, I am staying home on Election Day from now on.

So Bush was somehow responsible for all the people who died after Katrina? How utterly laughable. A better place to place the blame would be a) all of the idiots who ignored repeated warnings to vacate beforehand, and b) the corrupt Democratic apparatchik that bled dry the resources that were supposed to be used to maintain the levees.

Bravo! Great Quit Smoking Tips . You are now my Stop Smoking Guru!

Thanks for the nice blog. I enjoy your writing. This is a complex subject matter.

I started smoking when I was a kid. It was the hugest mistake of my life. Now I'm much older I have found giving them up is very hard. I attmpted all of the stopping tools but none did any good. Then I heard about the electric cigarette. The e cig uses a nicotine fluid that has only nicotine. No toxic chemicals at all. They have completely saved my life. No more inhaling toxic substances feels stupendous!

Wonderful to read!
