Good Morning Blogmocracy Netizens! I hope every one slept well and you are ready for a new day. The humidity is gone here in the Tampa area and it’s a nice 60’s degree morning.
The Progressive establishment in Washington and the media pundits are claiming that the GOP is moving too far to the Right. The establishment Crypto-Progressive Republicans like Kathleen Parker, David Frum and David Brooks are also in agreement with this analysis. These pundits should be ignored as they are not Conservative/Libertarian. They are influenced by Progressive thinking. These are submissive Republicans who like being abused by Democrats. They suffer from Stockholm Syndrome and should be ignored or mocked.
Today is Election Day. In Washington’s corridors of power, politicians and pundits are pacing like expectant fathers. Fair or not, today is being cast as a referendum on the Obama administration’s first year in office and a window to the crucial midterm elections next year.If Republicans do well particularly in the New Jersey and Virginia gubernatorial contests moderate Democrats might go wobbly in their support for President Obama’s agenda.
Democrats might like health care reform, but they like getting re-elected even more.
A Democratic loss in New Jersey, one of the country’s most reliably Democratic states and where Obama won by roughly 15 points in 2008, would be an unspinnable debacle for the Democrats. That’s why Obama has, like Johnny Sack from The Sopranos, all but moved to New Jersey to oversee his interests there. Even if the unpopular incumbent, Democratic Gov. Jon Corzine, manages to squeak by with a victory, the message for Democrats might not be all that heartening.
Read the rest.
Jonah Goldberg’s analysis is spot on. He of all people understands the evil nature of Progressivism. His book Liberal Fascism rips the happy smiling face off the Progressive movement. He is a pundit we should listen to and I admit his book lead me to research Progressives.
Republicans can’t win as Progressive-lite, they have been doing this since 1996 with mixed results. Now the Progressives have total domination of America and it must be broken. The GOP needs to offer a rightwing vision of freedom that contrasts with the Left’s totalitarian vision of control. The GOP needs to ignore the Beltway Conservatives, they are collaborators and and should be shunned. They are part of the Progressive Machine and are our enemies as well.
I have always had more faith in the common sense of the American people than I do the United States government.
Of course, I am also reminded what H.L. Mencken once said,
” No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people.”
When the entire MSM, besides Fox, is saying that the R’s will be a permanent minority party if they don’t pull a DemLite, do not listen.
Do they REALLY want the R’s to make a comeback?
Of course not!
Good morning y’all!
@ typicalwhitey 2:
Since the entire MSM, besides FOX are rooting for the D team it makes it hard to listen to them. Too bad normal every day American’s really aren’t aware of their bias.

And don’t you love it when the Democrats say “the Republicans should do this, the Republicans should do that” like they really care if the GOP is viable.
I’m hoping that it being an off year election will keep the gimmee free stuff crowd away from the polls, at least here in the California 10th. I’m hoping Virginia and New York 23 give Zero a big electoral kick in the ass and wake up the supposed moderate Dems that the tide is turning.

Why do you think FOX is getting a huge ratings boost since the election?
Because a lot of Americans are figuring it out!
At least I hope they are!

@ Carolina Girl:
Why listen to your political enemies? When I see Republicans like Frum and Brooks trying to mimic Progressives, it makes me sick. They are collaborators and Progressive enablers.
@ Rodan:
Good morning Rodan!
And as usual you said it way better than me
Again, there’s that danged Gallup poll from last week that found out that 40% of Americans consider themselves conservative, 37% moderate, and only 20% liberal, and of those 20% liberal only 5% consider themselves extremely liberal.
Which yet again proves that WE are the mainstream of America!
And we conservatives taking advice from the MSM would be comparable to Eisenhower taking military advice from Hitler in WW2. Gimme a f**king break…
Be back in a little bit.
Running to the post office.
I will bring coffee when I come back
@ typicalwhitey:
Why listen to your enemies? The Media except for FOX, are arms of the Progressive movement. The problem is also in the GOP. You have the Bush-McCain wing or Compassionate Conservatives, who really are Cryto Progressives. This wing holds us back from destroying the Left.
@ Bob in Breckenridge:
Hey you are a due for a Nancy the Pony Tailed Ukulele Player post!

@ m:
Hi Michelle! Can you email MightyConsrevative’s email address?
@ Rodan:
Yeah Rodan, I know. I haven’t posted much because the power supply on my computer bit the dust a week ago Sunday and I’m waiting for Dell to send me a new one, it should be here tomorrow according to Fedex tracking. Then I decided to call around and found out a new one only costs about $35. If I would have known that I would have just bought one. I knew I shouldn’t have sold my laptop…

BTW, you forgot washed-up ukulele player.
Americas flirtation with progressive politics is now coming to an end. It took a year, but if you look at the poll numbers, most people have suddenly woken up, and realize that their support of Obama was a big mistake, endangering their and their children’s future. It’s sort of like the married guy who has everything going for him in his life, but decides one day that his life is boring and while on a business trip meets an attractive woman in a bar. However, when the bar starts to close and he walks outside with the woman, realizes that he is about to make a terrible mistake, and suddenly sobers up and realizes that the woman he was with is not so attractive at all, and that his life is anything but empty and boring.
@ Rodan:
Exactly!These so called Republicans are concern trolls and their aim is to demoralize, not uplift.
@ m:
m…you need to get out and get a little sun, your looking a little pale.lol
Good morning! Well, we should have a good day in Virginia and in NY 23. As for New Jersey — well, it’s going to be fun to see how creative ACORN and the Dems (same thing) are with their election fraud. ACORN is busy forwarding a record number of write-in ballots. Establishment Republicans will see this as a sign of support for moderate ideas, and a rebuke to those pestilential conservatives.
Hey guys!! Get your comment in now, the site is going to be frozen for a bit during the move!
Last!
Um, we’re moving?
I hope the Dhimmcrats lose big time today.
Might Tropical Disturbance #97L DESTROY Florida?
Eh, maybe not. But I remember the rotating bars and liquor stores (ABC was the name) near Orlando, FL 32813, and my nearly full year in Florida saw a hurricane hit New York, but, sadly, not Florida.
Obama won Virginia by 6 points. If Bob McDonnell wins as projected by 14 points or more, the 20 pt. shift in just one year will be an earthquake in the political landscape for Dems.
What does one wear for a site move?
This article is apropos to this tread
Top ten moments in moderate GOP history.
oh noooooooo, I don’t wanna move!
What is all this then?
And as a reminder, the nomination thread will be open tonight.

Am I here yet?
I think I’ll wait for the move before I try that again.

Michelle if you could pass this on to MightyConservative I’d appreciate it. Is it possible to add a “new comments” button so we don’t have to refresh the page each time to read them? And thank him for all the work he’s done. The site now looks better than Nancy’s, IMHO.
/Although he has soooper-seeekrit threads so supposedly nobody can see what the losers over there are saying to each other, and we don’t.
@ Bob in Breckenridge:
All one has to do is click on a comment and the comments refresh with out the whole page reloading. Sheesh, where have you been?
@ m:
What time is the move?
OK, everybody breath. That’s it. In and out.
Well, some tips for you election watchers. Do not listen to the exit polling. The pundits know nothing–they’re worse than sports announcers yammering away during a booth review or a time-out (the ESPN crew last night gave me fits– Mike Tirico is worse that Tony Kornheiser) And hope and pray for clear-cut victories. We don’t want close ones. We don’t want any recounts–we know how those have been turning out lately.
I hope it isn’t cold. I don’t look good naked and cold.
I am not sure I will be much help with moving if there are scantily clad womens around.
Boobies boggle my mind.
Hmm.. is it safe?
@ bar:
Forget the boobies- you sir have been lax on the food threads.
For some reason, there’s no comment box at the bottom of the previous thread. Has someone closed the comments on that thread, or is it just me?
I am starting a he man woman haters club but since I am a woman I will have to ban myself from the club.
Sheesh I need more coffee!!!

That should be personally, see I cant even think about a pretty women and type at the same time.
