Teabagger Heroes Humiliated At The Polls

[dc1971]

As a Liberal, do you realise what islam would do to your movement

Do you even have a clue what islam would do to liberals

As a... whatever you are... Do you even have a clue what islam is?

 

[dc1971]

Have the Republicans put forward any practical proposals for making our (America's) health care system better?

Now why would they do such a thing? That takes brains!!

 

[phillyboy]

One's health shouldn't be treated as a product. It's too important to subject it to the influences of greed and profit.

I hear ya!

 

[GrouchoMarxist]

Better stock up on health while you can!!!!

 

[PixyMisa]

But those facts would have gotten in the way of the OP's most awesomest thread ever.

Yep. Darn pesky fasts. "Our entire party got neutered last night, but we still have Harry Reid!" doesn't sell for some reason.

 

[SezMe]

I have some friends who are active in California Democratic politics, and, behind closed doors, a great Many California Democrats...including some of her fellow congressmen, cannot stand her. She is just not very likable.

So dudalb has a great Many California Dems (not just some, a great Many) (some of whom are in congress - quiver in fear) who "cannot stand her" and thus she is not very likable.

Odd, that. Because dudalb allegedly knows some Dems who don't like the Speaker of the House, she is "not very likable." Maybe dudalb could cite some House Speakers - no matter which party - who did not incur the wrath of opponents - again, no matter which party - while climbing to the third highest political position in the land.

A candidate who NOBODY had even heard of a year a half ago, came within a hair of unseating one of the most powerful democrats in the country.

NOBODY? (Your caps.) You don't live in Nevada do you?

Sharron was first elected in 1992 to the Nye County School Board of Trustees. The family moved back to Reno in 1995 and in 1998 she was elected to the Nevada State Assembly where she faithfully served until 2006.

That quote is from her own web site. She was in the Nevada legislature for eight years.

That's embarrassing for you, BAC. But I'm sure you can find some editorial links from WND to back up your claim. Right?

 

[UnrepentantSinner]

Right. Let's examione Scrut's typically erroneous premise. 2010 election winners whom Palin endorsed:

Rand Paul

Kelly Ayotte

Rick Perry

Michele Bachmann

Nikki Haley

Tim Scott

Shenannigans. Perry was governor Texas when Palin was a nobody mayor of Wasilla. He didn't need her kingmaking benediction, and would easily have won without it. That is as long as the Democrats nominated Bill White. If they'd have elected someone with some mojo, Perry likely would have lost.

 

[UnrepentantSinner]

Rush Limbaugh added this on the controversy:

Quote:
This is Mark Hemingway in the Washington Examiner:

Rush quoting the Washington Examiner? What's next, Michael Savage quoting World Net Daily? Alex Jones quoting his own website?

 

[cwalner]

BTW: I think he was being facetious.

Why, yes. Yes I was.

I would also like to thank logger for so eloquently proving the point I was making (facetiously of course)

 

[T.A.M.]

When you left to come here I was thinking hmmm, frying pan - fire

logger is making you nostalgic for the 9/11 forum, admit it

Lol...nostalgic is probably not the right word, although i gota pm from someone asking some questions in relation to a new irritation you guys have over there...good luck with that.

I just don't have the passion or desire to do any of it any more. Life is too short, and i find too little of any of it any more is legitimate intellectual debate.

Well, in their defense, in 1993 a number of Republicans did present the idea of requiring everyone in the US to have health insurance as their means for providing UHC...

(damn socialists....)

 

[Spindrift]

No I don't

Why don't you tell me.

Again what do you think islam would do to liberals

Zoom, right over the head.

You do realize there is no single Islam the way there is no single Christianity?

Even if there were, what could it do?

 

[The Central Scrutinizer]

Let me add this to your lack of attention span ...

Maybe this explains how Reid went from being down 4% in polls to winning by 5% in just 3 days?

http://gatewaypundit.firstthings.co...oversees-suspect-election-machines-in-nevada/

I'll tell you the same thing I (and others) told Kevin Lowe: Polls <> elections.

 

[T.A.M.]

Reid won because of (a) sharon angle, (b) larger then usual latino turn out, (c) young person turn out not seen in standard polling....the cell phone effect, and (d) a great ground team.

[BeAChooser]

Reid won because of (a) sharon angle, (b) larger then usual latino turn out, (c) young person turn out not seen in standard polling....the cell phone effect, and (d) a great ground team.

And might we say that democrats lost almost 60 seats in the House, 6 seats in the Senate, a bunch of governorships, and a bunch of state legislators because of (a) Obama (b) larger than usual American voter turnout, (c) the effect of Obama/Reid/Pelosi's agenda, and (d) a great ground team (i.e., the Tea Party).

 

[eeyore1954]

The big three, the standard bearers for the Teabagger movement, not only lost, but two of the three were humiliated.

Let's take a look:

Sharron Angle did the best of the three, only losing by 5%.

Christine O'Donnell was crushed in Delaware, by a relative unkown - 56%-40%. That's called a "smackdown".

In Alaska, nutjob Joe Miller lost to....are you ready....a freakin' write-in candidate!!! Do you understand what I'm saying? A write-in candidate!!! How humiliating is that?

Ahhh....I know what your thinking now. What about Rand Paul? Well, what about him? He was (and has been all along) endorsed by the Libertards. Why aren't they getting credit for his win?

Am I missing anyone? Those were the big three or four.
.

Who decided they were the big three. The media clearly decided O'Donnell was one because they enjoyed making fun of her. Beside the threads here I heard little about Joe Miller. Sharon Angle I did hear about a good amount but that was because she was running against Reid.

You can slice it anyway you want and believe whatever you want but it was a large swing for the republicans and the tea party played a big part in that.

 

[DavidJames]

I agree, but to paraphrase what I said yesterday you could rewrite that as

you can slice it anyway you want and believe whatever you want but it was a large swing for the republicans great victory for the Giants and their pitching staff the tea party played a big part in that.

The Tea Party elements of the Republican party brought tremendous energy to the election. They brought anger and simplicity both of which played well to a reeling American electorate.

 

[varwoche]

Despite what you may have heard, spelling doesn't count, intent does. If it can be construed as an attempt to write in Murkowski, it counts for her.

Yeah but that doesn't stop 'em from trying :
