You got it Ann-------could be real disinformation. By the time the polls open-----there will be much more disinformation by the Dems machine. In Virginia for the Presidential the Dems splurged their dollars as they kept the tv ads coming to scare the Seniors about Social Security Healthcare was constant as they scared the OLD people during the evening news and throughout their favorite shows. Now those OLD people who supported Obama, believing those trashy commercials, have seen the light. They voted Republican for the Governor, Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General of the Commonwealth of Virginia-------innauguration just held in Richmond for all. These Seniors who raised their children have now come home to where they belong------including being active participants. mj@Sic Tyannis Semper

After Obama Rally, Dems Pin Blame On Bush January 17, 2010 By Felicia Sonmez hotlineoncall.nationaljournal.com As audience members streamed out of Pres. Obama's rally on behalf of AG Martha Coakley (D) here tonight, the consensus was that the fault for Coakley's now-floundering MA SEN bid lies with one person -- George W. Bush. "People are upset because there's so many problems," Rosemary Kverek, 70, a retired Charleston schoolteacher said as tonight's rally wrapped up. "But the problems came from the previous administration. So we're blaming poor Obama, who's working 36 hours a day ... to solve these problems that he inherited." Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-RI), speaking with a gaggle of reporters after the event, said that while state Sen. Scott Brown (R) offers voters a quick fix, in reality, the problems created by "George Bush and his cronies" are not so easily solved. "If you think there's magic out there and things can be turned around overnight, then you would vote for someone who could promise you that, like Scott Brown," Kennedy said. "If you don't, if you know that it takes eight years for George Bush and his cronies to put our country into this hole ... then you know we have a lot of digging to do, but some work needs to be done and this president's in the process of doing it and we need to get Marcia Coakley to help him to do that." (Curiously, Kennedy mentioned Coakley repeatedly during his remarks to reporters, each time referring to her as "Marcia," not "Martha.") More Kennedy: "One thing the Democrats have done wrong? We haven't kept the focus on this disaster on the Republicans who brought it upon us. We've tried too hard to do that right thing, and that's to fix it, as opposed to spend more of our time and energy pointing the finger at who got us [here] in the first place." Blaming their problems on Bush does carry a risk for Dems, however -- with their sights so firmly focused on the past, Brown's campaign has managed to wrest the "change" mantle from them. Meanwhile, even as Kennedy took on both Bush and Brown head-on, some attendees were more muted in their criticism of Brown. "I mean, he is handsome," Christine DiPitro, 61, of Malden, said of Brown. "He does appeal to the regular guy with his truck, but that's about all."
