Nikki Haley ,Susana Martinez?? Women and Minorities . Yes there were some novice women who lost ,but consider this... McMahon ,Whitman,Fiorina ,and Angle... relative novices all... forced the Dems to pump a lot of resources into races for positions they thought were safe. |

Democrat pollster Mark Penn's post election prognostication is Obama needs an Oklahoma City moment to reconnect with the people.
“President Clinton reconnected with Oklahoma. And the President right now he seems removed. And it wasn’t until that speech that he really clicked with the American people. Obama needs a similar kind of, yeah” said Penn.

Here's a clue that's been repeated ad nauseum all along, we don't give a hoot that you're a woman... it's the progressive ideology I'm against. We're not the ones calling women whores for not walking in lockstep with the left. |

Hello again, The right is gloating. They say the election is a repudiation of the Democrats positions and they need to act more like Republicans in order to win... They couldn't be wronger... If there was a repudiation, it was a repudiation by the LEFT because Obama didn't act LIBERAL enough. IF the same number of voters, who supported Obama the first time around, voted, the right would have lost, just like they did in '08. The people know the righty's are the ones who caused the problem in the first place. They only got elected by default... excon |

I am encouraged that the Black Congressional caucus have made the gesture of inviting new Congressional Republican Reps Tim Scott of South Carolina and Allen West of Florida to join the caucus.
The black caucus includes a handful of moderates but is mostly made up of liberals serving in safe Democratic districts. The addition of Republicans would likely shake up its weekly meetings and require its leaders to navigate around them to discuss strategy.
West, a former Army officer, said in an interview he's eager to steer the group away from "failing liberal social welfare policies that have caused the demise of the black community." Fox is also reporting that defeated Dems penned a letter to Pelosi asking her to step down. As you know... it was the Blue Dogs in swing districts that took the brunt of the electorate outrage for going along with the Pelosi -Obama radical Fabian agenda. FULL TEXT: Defeated Dems' Letter to Pelosi Fox News Insider Suffice it to say that there are many defeated moderate Dems who betrayed their convictions and voted in lock step with the extremist agenda who would disagree with the contention that the party was not radical lefty enough . |

Democrats have reached an agreement. No more fighting over who gets what, Pelosi has claimed her rightful, well earned place as Minority Leader. Hoyer will be no. 2 at minority whip, and she's given the crumbs to Clyburn with a new no. 3 position... "assistant leader."
Bwaaaa ha ha!! And you thought the democrats couldn't get any weirder. |

Democrats are famous for creating positions that are not necessary. I'm surprised she didn't call the position a "czar". What "privileges" will come with this new leadership position? How much of the budget will be used to fund this new position ? They could've avoided the controversy by booting Madam Mimi out of power. You see Steve... The 'Boys didn't need to replace Phillips .All they really needed to do is create an assistant coaching position for Garrett. |
