Truer words were never spoken!! Democrats beware, your very soul is at stake if you vote your party. If you cant vote Republican, vote independent, its the only way you will ever regain your party, unless of course you yourself is UNAMERICAN. jdn

yeah, the american people are really on board with wingers like limbaugh, lol "Bush Blamed More Than Clinton According to a new Gallup Poll, the American public puts "the primary blame" on President Bush rather than Bill Clinton for the fact that Osama bin Laden has not been captured. "A majority of Americans say Bush is more to blame (53%), compared with 36% blaming Clinton." Why Some Republicans Want to Lose "As the White House and its Republican allies on Capitol Hill work to retain control of Congress in November's elections, a small but vocal band of conservative iconoclasts say they would prefer to see their own party lose," the Wall Street Journal reports. "The array of former members of Congress and officials from Republican administrations dating to the 1970s are using opinion articles, speeches and interviews to make the surprising -- and, to many of their friends and colleagues, near-heretical -- argument that it would be better for the country if their party lost. Some say they plan to vote Democratic for the first time in their lives. The Republican rebels say the modern Republican Party has so abandoned its conservative beliefs that it deserves to be defeated by the Democrats." In Pennsylvania, Rendell Tackles Swann "In his apparent runaway race for re-election," Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell (D) leads challenger Lynn Swann (R), 55% to 39% among likely voters, with 6% still undecided, according to a new Quinnipiac poll. Pollster Clay Richard said Rendell "remains untouchable. The Governor's political juggernaut continues to storm across Pennsylvania while Lynn Swann's campaign is running on empty. The incumbent's biggest problem in this election is overconfidence. While he may not worry about enough supporters turning out to give him a comfortable victory, he needs a turnout with big enough coattails to sweep Bob Casey Jr., into the Senate." In the Florida Senate race, Sen. Bill Nelson (D-FL) continues to dominate Rep. Katherine Harris (R-FL), currently leading 59% to 31%. In Nebraska, Nelson Appears Safe Sen. Ben Nelson (D-NE) is successfully fending off a challenge from Pete Ricketts (R), despite Ricketts “spending nearly $10 million of his own money on his campaign.” According to a new Rasmussen Reports survey, Nelson currently leads by 23 points, 55% to 32%. In Arizona, Napolitano Maintains Huge Lead Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano (D) continues to enjoy a large lead over challenger Len Munsil (R), according to a new Rasmussen Reports poll. Napolitano currently beats Munsil by 18 points, 56% to 38%. Key statistic: “In terms of job approval, 63% approve of [Napolitano’s] performance as their governor and 35% disapprove.” In Colorado, Ritter Increases Lead Colorado’s gubernatorial race appears to be Bill Ritter’s (D) to lose, according to a new Rasmussen Reports survey. Ritter currently leads Rep. Bob Beauprez (R-CO) by 16 points, 50% to 34%. In Washington, Cantwell Opens Up 12 Point Lead In Washington's U.S. Senate race, a new SurveyUSA poll shows Maria Cantwell (D) leading challenger Mike McGavick, 54% to 42%. Key finding: Independents support Cantwell 51% to 35%. In Oklahoma, Henry Holds Commanding Lead In Oklahoma's gubernatorial race, a new SurveyUSA poll shows Gov. Brad Henry (D) leading challenger Ernest Istook (R) by a stunning 64% to 33% margin. This is a 5 point gain for Henry since last month's poll. Key finding: Henry leads by 45 points among women and by 18 points among men, a 27-point gender gap. In CO-7, Democrats on Track to Pick Up Seat In Colorado's 7th congressional district, a new SurveyUSA poll shows Ed Perlmutter (D) leads Rick O'Donnell (R) by a whopping 54% to 37% margin. The incumbent, Rep. Bob Beauprez (R-CO), is running for governor.
