Same old canned rhetoric.

Try to comprehend this...
Romeny is a capitalist.
Obama is a socialst.


Seriously? The establishment polar politicians spend all their time pulling catch phrases out of their political goodie grab-bags (case in point). Capitalist? Socialist? Is it really that simple? I'm from MA. Was Romeny a capitalist when he created RomneyCare for us? These labels are meaningless to anyone except for those with an overly simplistic view of how things work. They are a convenient means of pigeon-holing people into neat, orderly little packages. Fact is, Romney is a bag man. He'll do and say whatever he is instructed to do and say. Same for Obama. Same for Bush, etc. These people have no real power. Was there any siesmic shift when Obama took office? Nope. Business as usual. When the Republicans 'took control' in 2010? Nope. Business as usual. The rich are getting richer, we're getting screwed and left holding the bag, government continues to take away our Constitutionally guaranteed rights and liberties, teh top dogs openly flaunt the laws and game the system for their personal gain. REAL capitalism died a very long time ago. We live in an age of corporate piracy and oportunism. Real capitalsim would not eat it's own young.


Let me see here in my play book...
meaningless.... page 22
bag man... page 37
eat their young (paraphrased)... page 47
rich getting richer...page 2
Romeny Care...PAGE 1 !!!

Time to get a new play book.

Bob Beckel from The Five also conceded that Indiana has in fact gone red.



We are screwed. I don't believe anything Bob Beckel says. He is almost as bad as Obama when it comes to truth.

All in good time. We have patience.

BTW, Obama is on the ropes.

Romney 50% / Obama 43%

It's time to call Hillary!

“Unfavorable” views of the Tea Party movement have jumped from 22% in February 2010 to 51% in March 2012, mostly at the expense of “don’t know” respondents.

The Tea Party's declining favorabili....

Here are some of the things the tea party has brought to American politics:

Three people, including a former aide to Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, were arrested Thursday as part of a secret criminal probe that found two of the men stole funds intended for wounded vets and families of U.S. soldiers who died in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Former aide to Scott Walker arrested...


The Americans for Prosperity Foundation (R-Koch), a faction of the Conservative group founded by the Koch brothers, is spending at least $700,000 into ads in Wisconsin defending Gov. Scott Walker’s (R-WI) record. Walker’s promise for job creation has failed, and while his campaign did not promise to eradicate collective bargaining rights, he was successful at that.

As a candidate, Walker promised that the State would have 250,000 private sector jobs by the end of his four year term. PolitiFact reports, “our calculations show that he has 236,500 jobs left to go. And this promise remains In the Works.” Or broken.

The teap party's last stand

Lets look at those the tea party paid to have elected.
John Boehner:

Thirty-seven percent (37%) of Likely U.S. Voters have at least a somewhat favorable opinion of House Speaker John Boehner, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. But 42% have an unfavorable view of the Ohio Republican, although that's down from last month’s all-time high of 50%. The new findings include 10% with a Very Favorable opinion of Boehner and 22% with a Very Unfavorable opinion. Twenty percent (20%) offer no opinion of him.

Congressional favorability ratings...


In recent weeks reports from South Carolina and Florida have suggested the Tea Party base, important to the winning campaigns of governors Nikki Haley(R-SC) and Rick Scott(R-FL), is falling away. In each case, it’s believed that loss of support may make it difficult for either to win re-election.

Disappointing tea party

It isn't that difficult to find evidence of a waning tea party, people voted for tea party candidate only to see them immediately turn to establishment policy's. Many that voted for them now regret it.

The Republican Party is in a internal battle for control of the GOP, on one side you have the establishment republicans with there guy Romney, on another side you have the tea party with most of the right wing arm of the party wishing to force all republicans into the far right wing camp, then you have the Ron Paul Revolution.

A split republican party will not win the election. Unless beating other republican is calling it a win.

Lets not forget the low voter turnout in this primary season for Republicans.

Lugar had to go.

He was too much of a RINO.

Who would vote for a person who raised taxes in double digit frequency?

I did find Lugar's comments quite interesting. He's obviously bitter - but also quite worried about the growing inflexibillity and extremism in the Republican Party.

Yes, it's called an election.

Richard Luger - L O S T - to Tea Party Challenger Richard Mourdock.

It wasn't close.

Tea Party - Richard Mourdock 61%

RINO Lugar - 39%

Good luck in retirement Lugar! Long live the mighty Tea Party !

Senator Lugar was thrown out and replaced with Tea Party favorite.

Out with the old and in with the new.

Tea Party firepower gave the liberals a shellacking in November 2010.

Liberals are sensing pending doom November 2012.

- Tea Party Alive & Well -


lol...yeah, right....liberals are running scared...the general population has had 2 years of a republican tea-party congress, and they have been shocked at what they have seen happen to congressional sanity.

Erm, that was a Republican primary. I wouldn't call it exactly indicative of what the general population want. Besides, wasn't Lugar slammed for being an old fossil who didn't have a house in the state?

Can I ask which poll you're citing? Please tell me it's not the Ras one that has The Romney Unit leading by 7 points - Ras are useless. I think Gallup has TRU ahead of Obama by a point, which sounds more likely at the moment.

It's the Daily Rasmussen Presidential Poll.

Romney 50%

Obama 42%............It's time to call Hillary.


---------
The 3% undecided will vote for Romney. That makes it Romney 53% / Obama 42%.

It's over.

if the tea party causes another downgrade in our treasury bonds, or even refuses to pay our debts, i want all the tea-party congressmen brought up on charges of treason. the act of deliberately causing harm to our national economy, by not paying our debts is more than enough reason for me. these tea-party people want to tear down america. taxpayers, left and right, will be paying out more in interest on our debt and thus causing untold billions of dollars to be paid that would not go to funding more urgent needs.
