The Pew poll, conducted Oct. 13-18, has Republicans leading on the generic congressional ballot by 50 percent to 40 percent. In September's survey, the lead had been 50 percent to 43 percent.
An All-Democrat controlled Government is destroying our future...and ironically their own stated agenda (What's their latest view from the solitary-filled seat on the Gulf-Stream V ?). Things haven't gotten better after $$$Trillions spent because the Democrat-controlled government is looking out for themselves and their friends. Billions will be spent on getting votes and a tiny piece of that billion would help out increasing poverty, unemployment....atleast for publicity. Don't vote for Democrats if things haven't gotten better for YOU...2 Years of an All-Democrat controlled government and $4 Trillion is enough. Where are the results?

It was when Democrats took over congress that things went the way they did. You want to blame somebody, blame Pelosi reid and barney frank. Btw it was clinton that signed NAFTA that caused a lot of jobs to leave our country.

How else would one believe that what couldn't be accomplished in eight years could be turned around in two? It has never happened before. I guess the thing to do would be to really just ignore all of the fuss and vote for the "smart" people.
October 22 2010 at 11:33 AM Report abuse Permalink -13 rate up rate down ReplyIf they were superior intellectually they would be able to handle criticism and be willing to admit to mistakes and take the proper actions. intellectuals do not resort to name calling that would be beneath them.Your earlier post of Obama and his Veto pen is exactly what is needed. It will get government out of the way of the people and business so this mess can get cleaned up. The Veto pen will also make sure he is a one term president. People will come to realize what do we need him for all he does is veto everything and fly allover the country and world on our dime. It is called self destruct 101.

I think that the Tea Party started way too soon. everything they had was spent so early that now the candidates who won, thanks to the TP, are now under scrutiny by the press, O'Donnell, Miller, Paul are all in the press' sites. Now the democrats have pulled out the big guns, Clinton, the Obama's, John Stewart's march for Sanity in DC 3 days from the election - that maybe as large as Beck's, some think larger considering Stewart/Colbert are by far the most popular psuedo-pundit news anchors on tv. The Dewey reference is right on though. The reliance on polling data and historical precidence to predict the winners failed then and may do so know. Case in point - in Arizona is so red and conservative, the press and tv, that is has not even mentioned that the hispanics have increased thier voting rolls by 40%! Most are young and angry over SB1070 and don't have home phones but cell phones. No polling center calls cell phones.

God has left the building , but only because we have forced Him out.. not us as in you and me. but our gov't and our leaders, our judicial and special interests groups.. and even our own churches.. this is a very very serious time , your vote counts.. so go vote in Nov. Vote to take back our country.. stop this crazyness.. let's invite God back into our schools, Gov't, churches and all our homes.. and yes let's be tolerant but vigilant at the same time.. stupid is not a good thing at this point.. protect your family and protest yourself.. be aware of your world.. go vote and make a difference

They should be sitting back and not having to spend the outrageous amounts of money they are throwing into these races. In my State, PA, things are much closer than they should be. My Republican candidates are weak, wealthy mouthpieces for Wall St. or the Mob. Repub Party knew many would vote for Satan before a Dem and that's how we got these! Now they're on defense instead of offense!

Their Socialistic Utopian wordview DOES NOT WORK period. There is no honesty and personal'fiscial responsibility but a grab for power and control via big gov't period. JUst for starters - look at the the "wonderful" liberal lead public school system or how "efficient" the post office runs or how they are seeking to silence anyone who does not agree and/or exposes their America hating agenda...even a liberal leaning Juan Williams...when Joy B. on the view said untrue hateful things about Christianity...that gets a pass...notice how the dems who cannot run on the things they voted for won't talk about the issues but resort to character assination...something smells people...wake up...for starters...America as we know it...America to be the world's leader...must have limited gov't...term limits...cut spending...the fair tax system...strong nat'l defense...balanced budget...if you want to be like western Europe go live in France...hows that working out???
October 22 2010 at 6:02 AM Report abuse Permalink +8 rate up rate down ReplyYou democrat supporters amuse me. The only thing I've heard democrats do so far isn't telling us their platform, but tearing down Republicans. I haven't heard one Democrat bragging how he/she voted for Obamacare, or the failed Stimulus. If it was so great, why don't they take credit? In fact, some Democrats are now pleading with their constituents to vote for them so they can "fix" the Health Care bill and "make it right". How pathetic is that? Why weren't they concerned when they were forcing this socialis garbage down our throats? Like it or not, they brought this upon themselves and have no one to blame BUT themselves.

Stuff a few ballot boxes recount the vote a few dozen times, throw out valid ballots and they just might have a chance!!! Then, tie up the courts with their lawsuits. That's why Republicans needs to win by at least 7 or 8 percentage points, just to cover the built-in coruption from the democraps. :o)
October 22 2010 at 3:16 AM Report abuse Permalink +4 rate up rate down ReplyTo Vette330--Thank you for enlightening Punster of the facts. It's unbelievable that some people are so uninformed. It's like Jay Leno & his Jaywalking. Most people don't even realize that the Dems were in control of the House & Senate in 2006 (you know when no one thought it was important to regulate Fannie & Freddie.) One hears complaints about Glenn Beck but if some of these people listen to his research and statements made by some of the radicals surrounding Obama (AND STATEMENTS IN THEIR OWN WORDS REGARDING THEIR IDEAS OF TRANSFORMING THIS COUNTRY) it is eyeopening. I don't know why we have to pay for Obama's czars--never been elected but who advises Obama. Why do we need Congress if these czars are telling Obama what to do.
