Everyone must be out celebrating the big republican victory! WooHooo! Cuz it is awlfully quiet on the politics forum today.
Some victory today, not only in the house, but govenorships and state legislatures all shifted in the right yesterday. (pun intended). There is still hope for America. Wish the senate could have been taken as well by the majority is much weaker now. Message to the libs was sent, America does not like your socialist agenda nor the bankrupt nanny state you libs are trying to build. Step aside!
Actual, in typical liberal, socialist, progressivist, Obamunist, Democrat "denial of reality", the message they seem to have heard was:
"You didn't do enough changes, fast enough. We need more of these aggressive stimulus, and socialistic spending!"
Seriously... that seems to be the "party line" today amongst the Chattering Classes...
Obama has 2 routes to go (I said this months ago and it's even more true now):
1) he can "get smart" and pull a 1994-Clinton triangulation towards the middle, and co-opt the success the Republican house is going to create with spending cuts, tax cuts, repeal of regulations, etc... and win in 2012
or
2) he can remain true to the Saul Alinski, progressive socialist he is (and always has been) and "dig in" idealogically... And then try to blame the Republicans for being the "party of no"...
I know which way I am betting...
Let's just say I see him losing in 2012...
