Comments on: Will The Wave Begat The Tsunami? http://www.oliverwillis.com/2007/03/26/will-the-wave-begat-the-tsunami/ Like Kryptonite To Stupid Mon, 23 Nov 2009 02:33:27 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: Adam Herman http://www.oliverwillis.com/2007/03/26/will-the-wave-begat-the-tsunami/#comment-80186 Adam Herman Wed, 28 Mar 2007 17:29:21 +0000 http://improveman.com/ow2008/?p=6672#comment-80186 I know you don't keep an eye on Washington when Democrats are in charge, but a lot of people have noticed that it took the Democrats less than 100 days to break their promises on pork barrel spending. They even abolished CRS's reporting on pork projects, one of the few promises the GOP didn't break in their 12 years in power. The simple arithmetic of defending fewer Senate seats favors the Democrats in 2008, but if they think they can go back to 1992-1993 ways of doing business, they'll find themselves back in the situation that got them into trouble in the first place.

What the fuck is it with you ignorant assholes? You 28%s are getting more irrelevant every day. No matter what it can only hurt the Democrats? What the fuck is it with you ignorant assholes?

Whatever happens in iraq, at this point, can only hurt thre Democrats. A surrender as the far-left wants polarizes the country against them. Staying the course in some form (as maybe Hillary leaves the door open to) alienates the money-bags hard left - the Sheenhanistas. Its a lose-lose proposition for the Dems.

Try to write one incorporating the fact that nobody in the field had 50,999,897 people vote for them like Al Gore did. Yeah, even for you that was a really bad comeback.

Al Gore could never win a "Democrat party" primary OR the majority of American votes. Especially if the American people turn against the Republicans. Yep.
