I don't approve of the job they are doing either. Get health care passed.

Yeah, that's why independents are leaving the Dems in large numbers and supporting Republican candidates. Because Obamacare hasn't been passed yet. LOL :rolleyes:

I think it is as soon we start to govern instead of talking about governing it will get better.

Republicans winning recruiting battle

Cook Political Report House analyst David Wasserman notes a telling indicator that the political environment in 2010 is shaping up to be favorable for Republicans: Several Democratic candidates have decided to drop out of tough races, while Democratic members of Congress who rarely face serious challenges are finding themselves with their toughest re-elections in years.

you're totally lost in this republican vs democratic bullshit. aren't you?

There is no left or right - Just the money guys and us - and they are not about to share a red cent. Politics are about having your henchmen make sure that you have everything and your neighbour has nothing. So wierd when I see a poitical person pleading to a body of Parlimentarians how an "international banker" that he "repects" should be appointed to a plum position on some committee...case in point...and that's the point - the banker boys use left and right - dems and reps like a pair of hand puppets - it's best to maintain a centralist and moderate mind in order to deal realistically with todays world.

Just another Dem who'll be soon waving goodbye to the Senate! :lol:

Health Care Vote Puts Nelson 30 Points Down in Reelection Bid

Nelson's health care vote is clearly dragging his numbers down. Just 17% of Nebraska voters approve of the deal their senator made on Medicaid in exchange for his vote in support of the plan. Overall, 64% oppose the health care legislation, including 53% who are Strongly Opposed. In Nebraska, opposition is even stronger than it is nationally.

SENATOR BYRON DORGAN ANNOUNCES RETIREMENT

Link

Why you may ask?

2010 North Dakota Senate: Hoeven 58%, Dorgan 36%

Link

When you're down by 22 points in an election year, you're pretty much done. One more senate seat for the Repbulicans! :lol:

And regarding the GOP taking back the House, their current leader, Michael Steele, says on Sean Hannity's radio show "Not this year." :lol:

Yep, he said he didn't think it would happen this year. But he did say that they have a shot. Wow, what a rebuttal to the multitude of information I've posted in the last several pages of this thread. You showed me! :rolleyes:

OHHHHH NOOOOOO GOP RETIREMENTS MOUNT IN THE HOUSE ... threatening the seats Shady keeps talking about!!! :lol:

Nice try. I think the key phrase from you link is this...

While much of the focus for the last month (or so) has been on Democrats' retirement problems -- set off by a quartet of announcements in swing and Republican-leaning districts over the last month

AND...

Those numbers are roughly equivalent to Democrats' current retirement lineup.

You're purposely midleading people, and not acknowledging the Dem retirements.

I still don't know the difference between the Democrats and Republicans..and I really don't think it matters much.

I think Republicans like money, while the Democrats just like...uh..money, too. They play opposite sides against each other so that the most extremist people like Shady can get all worked up about partisan politics, but in terms of actual governance, you're right. No difference.

Connecticut Sen. Christopher Dodd won't seek reelection, will retire at end of term

Embattled Sen. Christopher J. Dodd (D-Conn.) has scheduled a news conference for Wednesday at which he is expected to announce he will not seek reelection, sources familiar with his plans said Tuesday night.

Word of Dodd's retirement plans comes after months of speculation about his political future, his faltering poll numbers and a growing sense among the Democratic establishment that he could not win a sixth term in the Senate. The news also came on the same day Sen. Byron L. Dorgan (D-N.D.) announced he would not seek reelection.

only in your wet dreams, Shady ... Democrat Richard Blumenthal heavily favoured

When Chris Dodd retired last night his seat went from one of the most vulnerable to one of the safest for Senate Democrats. Attorney General Richard Blumenthal leads all three of the Republicans in the race by at least 30 points in polling we conducted Monday and Tuesday night before Dodd's announcement.

Blumenthal is unusually popular, especially in hyper partisan times when voters like few politicians. 59% have a favorable opinion of him to just 19% who see him negatively. It's no surprise that he's liked by 71% of Democrats and 60% of independents, but even Republicans view him favorably by a 37/35 margin. It doesn't take a lot of hands to count the number of Democratic politicians with positive numbers among GOP voters these days.

:lol:

That's what happens when you get all your information from hyper-partisan blogs and FoxNews. You lose touch with reality.

What Planet do you live on? You do know the Republican Senator which Lieberman beat for his Set said the Republicans were wrong and Obama was right on Health care right? The Republicans can't win this seat because they wont nominate a moderate. It is actually an impossibility. Think of the way Republicans treat Snow........she is the only type of Republican that has a shot of winning in New England and you guys shit on her. Wont happen the Dems could run a dog and win this seat against whatever crazy the Republicans Nominate.

Uh oh! :lol:
