Charlie Cook has a review of the history of midterm elections and history has not been kind to the President’s party. As always, I’m convinced the Democrats will engineer a Wellstone moment and unwittingly reveal to America their true nature:
It took me nearly one-third of my life to come to a simple conclusion: Liberals are elitists.Maybe now’s a good time to mention Al Gore. Nah.
Now, maybe that's not such a big deal to some, but to me it has become quite bothersome. It's pretty clear to me now that average hard-working Americans, be they red-staters or blue-staters, can smell the stench of elitist, intellectual posturing by so-called liberals and progressives.
Unfortunately, the Donks changed the rules and now incumbancy reigns supreme.
ReplyDeleteWith a few months to go, it looks like only modest gains for the Donks, but the Trunks keep power in both houses.
I suspect the Donk spin on how not gaining control of either house is actually a win for the Donks to commence in late September.
So does McCain count as a Donk? :P He put on a nice pair of elephant ears and everything, the costume really is worth using for more than trick-or-treating, eh?
ReplyDeleteOooh, don't you just hate when modest gains are spun as epochal victories?
ReplyDeleteWhat's next for these treacherous spinning "Donks"? Nancy Pelosi saying that a 3-seat gain in the Senate gives the Democrats capital, political capital? And that now they intend to spend it?
Irony, thy name is apparently "wvwv."
