Democratic House Candidates Received More Votes Than Republicans


many running for re-election were forced to distance themselves from the President because of positions they'd previously taken, i.e. Obamacare.

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

That doesn't even make sense on its face.

If they wanted to distance themselves from Obama, they wouldn't be complaining about him.

Is defending the insupportable just a knee-jerk reflex to you ObamaZombies?

Democratic House Candidates Received More Votes Than Republicans


It is a fact that Obama did only one robocall for a Democrat and that was for Tammy Duckworth (and she was a candidate, not an incumbent).

It is also a fact that the House passed ACA with a vote of 219 to 212, with 34 Democrats and all 178 Republicans voting against it.  All members of the Progressive Caucus (81) voted yea for it.

In Ohio, Third-Party Candidates Could Tilt Election

Monday, November 5, 2012


#2 - The Supreme Court gave us Bush-Cheney, not Nader's voters.

#3 - There is no escaping the Bush-Cheney legacy when the Democratic president and the Democratic members of Congress aren't interested in repealing Bush-Cheney policies and legislation and reinstating legislation like Glass-Steagall.  It's not on Obama's or the Democratic Party's agenda.

In Ohio, Third-Party Candidates Could Tilt Election


#1 - You have no idea what kind of a PresidentGore would have made.  What Gore would or wouldn't have done isn't knowable.   Gore was a hawk on Iraq in 1991, one of only 10 Democrats to vote in favor of the GulfWar. He complained bitterly that GeorgeHWBush didn't march into Baghdad and Gore supported legislation aimed at rooting out SaddamHussein.

If Gore was willing to do it in 1991, over Saddam's invasion of Kuwaite after Kuwaite had been slant-drilling Iraq's oil and after GeorgeHWBush's ambassador to Iraq told Saddam that we'd have no problem if he invaded Kuwaite, you don't believe Gore would've done it in 2003 over WMD?  And after 9/11?  Even BillClinton was on board for it, and Clinton knew the truth, what BS it was.

Most people who say that about Gore believe him to be of noble character.  He's a politician, not unlike the rest of them.  Worse yet, he's a legacy, a second generation, who grew up in that culture.  He was chosen to run with Clinton not to balance the ticket from the left, but from the right.  The choices he made throughout his life show the same sense of entitlement that most Washington insiders display.  And how he's chosen to respond (not at all) to the charges about his own entitlement and hypocrisy (Occidental, carbon shares, his lavish 10,000-square-foot that uses more electricity every month than the average American household uses in an entire year, the 6,500 square foot villa in California with 6 fireplaces, etc.).

What's known is that his instincts and efforts on how to go up against the powers-that-be were either for show or lame and inept (as they continue to be at CurrentTV).  The same powers-that-be that got us into that war also took his lawfully elected presidency from him.  And after running one of the worst, tone-deaf campaigns in modern history.  The outcome of that election is the only thing keeping Gore's campaign from being placed in the 'Ridicule'-file with Dukakis's and Romney's.

See herehere and here.  And here - WTF was Gore thinking?

Gore picked the wrong man (WarrenChristopher) to face off with JimBaker in the post-election Florida fight.  While Gore, Christopher and Democrats were playing baseball, Bush, Baker and Republicans were playing football.  How did Gore not see that?
