Leadership, Obama Style and the Looming Losses in 2010
Same Poop, Different Color
As the president's job performance numbers and ratings on his handling of virtually every domestic issue have fallen below 50 percent, the Democratic base has become demoralized, and Independents have gone from his source of strength to his Achilles Heel. Somehow the president has managed to turn a base of new and progressive voters he himself energized like no one else could in 2008 into the likely stay-at-home voters of 2010, souring an entire generation of young people to the political process........here

The Republi-Crat System
Third Party Politics
In 2010, voters should vote their conscience, by seeking out other political party options as a matter of principle. Expect different policies, when voting for different candidates, from different political parties. If you wish for more of the same policies that are running America into the ground – then vote, once again, for another Republi-crat.......more
