“but our tent is much bigger than that”

D*mn! Don’t say that so early in the morning. Spewed my coffee.

Why should it even work to call someone a liberal?

Kaine hasn’t lost points, he’s gained. And he isn’t remotely liberal. For you guys Democrat = liberal, but our tent is much bigger than that. Hell, I’m pretty damn conservative on a lot of issues but I don’t have the kind of hate needed to be a Republican.

Jadegold, the economy has been doing very well.

I suppose this is what I get when trying to make a comment on a subject JWG knows nothing about.

Bloomberg article

The point JWG simply doesn’t undestand is that economic growth–by itself–is misleading. During the Great Depression, for instance, the economy grew at a rate of about 3% annually. By JWG’s logic, this means things were going “very well.”

Oliver, isn’t it interesting that if you call your opponent a liberal, he doesn’t deny it, he just loses percentage points?

If I were being called something that wasn’t true and losing points for it, I’d be crying “foul” to the rooftops. Why isn’t he?

In the VA race, the more the national economy heads south–the more it hurts Kilgore. VA voters realize Kilgore’s plans to cut taxes even further in a weakening economy is going to make VA look like MS.

VA GOPers like their tax cuts–but they see the mess Gilmore left the state in–during a great economy. They look at Kilgore’s plan to slash taxes in the midst of a very shaky economy and they’re getting cold feet.

I guess the decision of Gov. Hoeven not to challenge Kent Conrad for the Senate seat for North Dakota has the republicans a llittle upset at “Libbie’ Dole. They think she mishandled the whole thing. That may be but I think KR making an appearance may have pissed the players off. No doubt his understated style left them cold. Anyway they showed him the road to the Gulf Coast where he shoulda’ been anyway.
