Two Senate seats still fighting it out. Democrats could still lose

I think he should audition for a gig on the comedy circuit. President Obama claims he could have won a third term if he had been allowed to run – but even if he's right, his coattails haven’t done much for the rest of his party. While Obama’s tireless campaigning, broad demographic appeal and message of “hope” and “change” helped propel him to two terms in the White House, his skills on the stump haven’t translated down the ballot. The Democratic Party suffered ...

step down after next year. He's way too conservative for me, but apparently entirely too responsible and independent to suit the teapartiers and their backers. "In his retirement announcement, Mr. Chambliss expressed confidence that he would have beaten such foes, even as he voiced his frustration that compromise was increasingly impossible in Washington. “I have no doubt that had I decided to be a candidate, I would have won re-election,” he said. “Instead, this is ...

"Senate Democrats lost their majority on Harry Reid's watch, but they're closing ranks about him anyway. Most Democrats have Reid's back, prepared to stand by him as minority leader through a tumultuous 2 years as he simultaneously runs for reelection in Nevada." It seems these above-stated Democrats are on another suicide mission. Most of the Dems also tried to distance themselves from Obama before the midterms and even truly felt that Bill and Hillary Clinton were b ...

preventing appropriations from going forward. The Democrats did this for one simple reason: they want leverage to push their liberal priorities in all the other spending bills. In short, they are using military funding as a hostage. Just last week, the Senate passed the Bipartisan Budget Act, a budget deal that raised the legal spending caps for both defense and non-defense discretionary spending. This deal, which was opposed by many Republicans, gave President Obama and Democrats in Cong ...

missed them altogether. As they investigate the forces behind the party’s stunning losses in November, Democrats are coming to a troubling conclusion. The party didn’t just lose among rural white voters on Election Day, it may have failed to capture them in its pre-election polling as well. Many pollsters and strategists believe that rural white voters, particularly those without college degrees, eluded the party’s polling altogether — and their absence from poll results may have been ...

In one of their final acts before losing their majority to Republicans, Senate Democrats confirmed as ambassadors on Tuesday two big donors to President Barack Obama’s reelection campaign, despite a controversy overtheir qualifications. David Bryson Mamet won confirmation as envoy to Argentina in a 50-43 vote, while senators agreed 52-42 to send Colleen Bell on her way to Hungary. No Republicans voted for either nominee, and several senators misse ...

These are clips from C-Span. They were arguing against what they are now doing. I guess it's not okay for republicans, but it is okay for them. Very interesting. http://video.foxnews.com/v/2859380230001/flashback-senate-democrats-make-case-against-nuclear-option/ ...

scathing statements against President Barack Obama and his administration’s decision to break with longstanding tradition to veto anti-Israel resolutions, choosing, instead, to abstain from voting in a United Nations Security Council vote. The vote called for a halt to Israeli construction in the West Bank and eastern Jerusalem. Among the Democrats are Senators Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Joe Manchin (D-WV), Bob Casey (D-PA), Richard Blumenthal (D-VT), Mark Warner (D-VA), and Chris Coons (D-DE), ...

My daughter is 13, son is 10. They pick at each other constantly about the littlest thing! This afternoon I sent them out to shovel snow and my daughter came in crying and said she would go out after her brother was done because he called her an idiot. Told her she was not an idiot and called him in and told them both to not talk to each other while outside. Now it is not even 6 o'clock and they are in their rooms for the night because I am out of options for punishm ...

I try to be the peacemaker and remain neutral, but this year my sister has taken to posting on facebook! Is that not the most juvenile thing you have every heard??!!?! Of course, she is slanting the facts to make her look like the victim. My mom will never see it because she never uses a computer, doesn't even have email. However, I'm a little aggravated because there are all these people on my sister's friends list commenting on it basically telling my sis ...

Here's the thing, I think they spend too much time together and ever since school let out for summer, they have been getting into fights. And I don't mean arguments. I mean I hearing screaming and yelling and things breaking in the basement. So I go in there and what is happening is my son's girlfriend loses her temper and she hits my son. When I say hit, I mean she punches him in the face, backhands him in the mouth. My son has a really bad temper, b ...

So much for hope and change! OMG - 2012 ...

This is another thing I find unbelievably disgusting...these soldiers were wounded and killed by a fellow soldier who admittedly was in contact with Anwar al-Awlaki. Obama should be ashamed of himself for this lack of consideration for our boys. Remember how he treated the incident at a speech (read last paragraph). On November 5, 2009, Staff Sgt. Shawn Manning was shot six times by Maj. Nidal Hasan while he was serving on-duty at Ft. Hood in Temple, Texas, in what becam ...

I think Jill should quit while she's still ahead with the $7.2 million in her pocket. WISCONSIN: MICHIGAN:Attorney General Bill Schuette, like the Trump campaign, argues that Green Party candidate Jill Stein cannot seek the recount because she was not "aggrieved" to the point at which a potential miscounting of votes could have cost her the election. She garnered 1 percent of Michigan's vote. A federal judge halted the presidential vote recount in Michigan on Wednesday, ...

There is an ap on phones, kindle, computer whatever, it is called Lose It. I LOVE it, really helps calculating foods for weight loss. Anyone else doing the app and want to be on each other's list for motivation? If you are using a phone, you can actually scan bar codes of foods you eat and it puts your nutritional information right in there for that food. ...

Okay, I don't think this will be too long, but I don't know. I live with my 15-year old son (who has Asperger's Syndrome, but we won't go into that) and my 22-year old daughter, who has 2 children, ages 3 and 10 weeks! My daughter has no car. She just got a job working as a waitress at a restaurant here in town, but as we all know, the money made in that profession really comes from tips, and she is a newbie, and from what she is telling me, they aren't givi ...

Every month I go through the same thing - I wonder if I am going to make my house payment. There is just so much we have to pay for and obviously not enough money to pay for it all. Sometimes I just sit and cry and ask over and over - what are we going to do, where will we go, how will we live? I don't want to lose my home but there does not seem to be anything I can do. Just call me sad but true mt. Just thought maybe if I wrote it down I would feel better.&nb ...

Had a nice little once-a-month job (hmm, that sounds like I get paid to menstruate, but no that's not it LOL) - lost it - it was kinda painful, 'cause I liked my coworkers. But then, I've had time to check out a new writing group, AND go to my painting group - they were wondering what happened to me - let's just say "arctic vortex." Then my heating bill was insanely low, it will be low this month also, so I'm gonna make it (by the skin of my teeth as they say). So, th ...

I had a baby 2 years ago and I have not worked out a day since then (bad I know). Now, with summer coming up, I need to tone up and get in shape. Anyone have a good workout they can share to lose the baby weight. I've got about 10 pounds to lose, which isn't bad, but I'm so out of shape and kind of puffy, no muscle! I really don't want to join a gym as I have a treadmill and some weights but really have no idea what kind of workout to do. ...

"Give me tyranny and give me debt" has replaced “Give me liberty or give me death.” With his health care holy war, President Obama is sending America at least 10 messages since taking office: 1. I win; you lose. 2. My will; not the will of the people. 3. Government of Obama, by Obama, for Obama; not government of the people, by the people, for the people. 4. Corrupt House rules and autocracy; not play by the rules and democracy. 5. “I’ll tread on you” now step ...

It isn't possible to have an actual discussion with a tea party member. They love slogans and one-liners, but that's as far as their 'thinking' goes. They are shallow thinkers. The one thing about this, whether you think it is a good thing or a bad thing, is that they are causing the Republican Party to lose credibility. Decent people have been sucked into it temporarily, but if they are able to think, they eventually have enough of it. The Birther movement is taking the Tea ...
