Default Democrats in chaos

Wow the far left are now trying to distance themselves from each other.

The American threshold for loss of personal liberty is perhaps lower than in the rest of the world, so yeah, our definition of "left" is different. The US Constitution is a center-right (in modern US terminology, useless as left/right actually is anyway) document. It has to be "interpreted" to read the American left way.

Oddly enough, at the time it was pretty radical.


Sort of on-topic, the tea party is certainly fubaring the right. Look at Delaware. They gave a total loon the nod, and basically just lost the party the Senate.

Can you repeat that message in the "can you hear us now" topic as Steamwake doesn't realise that nominating fruitcakes in primaries means alienating voters in the actual election.

I'm sure it has already been said. but is changing ones mind to fit the facts on the ground only allowed for liberal/progressives?

Though the Buckley rule is often correct, thanks to the Obama agenda, we can start over this year. If the Democrats don't act simularly, to weed out their left wing, 1960's Manson Family hippies, they will be in the political wilderness for some time to come.

He's right, of course.

They want to control the senate committees. She'll lose, but if she can win, that's better for the party—though she'll likely not be a multi-termer. They could have had a safe seat, but she's an idiot. She is an idiot, BTW. I'd be happy if she won, but she's a low-grade moron.

I am so tired of everyone trying use the conventional wisdom.Guess what? O Donnell will take Delaware and Miller will take Alaska.The "elites" are just made because some real conservatives have taken what they viewed as their spot.The Dems are trying so hard to save face but they know they are ****ed.We really are in the early stages of a non violent political revolution of sorts.Basically a third party will never work, so the real conservatives have moved in and are taking over the Republican party.Hopefully we will have a day when spineless RINOS like Graham, McCain etc are out.

The elite political class in America is scared as hell, esp in the Republican party because due to their losses in 2008 and the election of Obama, the GOP has been forced to have a come to jesus type moment via the tea party.The old days are over.The Dems will be forced to have a moment, prob wont really happen until Barry is actually ran out of office, they will try to get some new people in no doubt.
