		<description>The Obama/Wright Democrats have ceeded W Virginia to the Republicans. He is giving up all of the south as well. His only electorial college win comes from picking up some of the west, NM, CO, and possibly the state of his VP nominee....OH, KS or AR. NH is also solidly in the McCain column against Obama.</description>

		<description>I think the three special election losses by the Republicans of supposed safe seats just means the electorate wants to throw all incumbents out. Why? Because they can't get a damn thing done. We should vote out every damn one of these current incumbents for incompetence. We do it by not voting or throwing our bums out. Unfortunately in the liberal Democrat world, bumbling incompetence gets you awards and praise (Pelosi, Reid, Kennedy, Carter....)</description>

		<description>heliotrope, I am starting to agree.  I started the "troll outing" theme here, but I am starting to wonder if Jae might really be a disabled veteran - with serious mental and emotional problems, on top of whatever physical problems.</description>

		<description>Awww, GP, you didn't need to delete that post.

After all, with it up there, it was always available to link to and demonstrate that "Jae" was so hateful and incoherent that he couldn't even read names on comment posts, much less make any sort of intelligent analysis.</description>

		<description>I love it when trolls are so dysfunctional, they can't even make their dumb personal attacks on the correct target.  Much less keep their own story straight.  Here is the Jae of today:&lt;blockquote&gt;...get the the presidents current agenda thru congress... get our presidents agenda thru congress... get the presidents agenda forwarded....
I am a proud Republican&lt;/blockquote&gt;And yet, also today:&lt;blockquote&gt;the Democrats are taking seats because of this White house&lt;/blockquote&gt;Which is a bit contradictory right there... but there's more, from the earlier thread I referenced:&lt;blockquote&gt;As a republican who has been shamed by all the devide and concur done by the current administration Obama is a breath of fresh air. I would have voted for Mc cain but [...some anti-McCain falsehoods, like the "100 years" distortion]... I certainly do not think our economy can withstand the highest deficits that This current occupant has saddled us with after being left asurplus [ed: untrue]... being disgusted by George Bush refusal to look for Osama ben Lauden [ed: again untrue]... &lt;/blockquote&gt;So Jae, which is it?  Proud Republican who badly wants President Bush's agenda to pass Congress?  Or barking-crazy hater of Bush and McCain?  Which?

For the record: "Jae" is always bringing up his/her veteran status in an irrelevant fashion, when nobody has even mentioned it.  To the best of my knowledge, neither I, NDT nor heliotrope have ever raised questions or taken any position on it, one way or the other.</description>

		<description>Uh, Jae Anderson, it was I Love Capitalism who outed you as a troll. 

Please insult him.

And insult me too, while you are at it. My self esteem really needs a good bruising.

Here is a lead for your attack on me: I have been an active Republican working with the grassroots since the Kennedy-Nixon election in 1960. I have never met a Republican who even remotely resembles the points you raise in #17.

I am sorry for your military related loss of your health. Would you care to tell us how you feel about nationalized medicine? After all, you must have had extensive experience with VA care.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Republican candidates need to find a way to run as change candidates.&lt;/blockquote&gt;H-m-m-m-m. Republicans should get into a "hope" and "change" battle with Obama?

Obama sets the agenda and Republicans try to "out hope" and "out change" him?

How, exactly do you "out hope" and "out change" the Democrats? Out pander them? Grow the government faster? Out tax them?

Shall we go for full health care, free nursing homes, free day care, free college and two advanced degrees, free transportation and  two weeks of vacation paid by the government? How about 20 years of transition income if you lose a job?

Republicans have the tried and true principles of conservatism to base their campaign on. Conservatism incorporations change that stems from continuity and growth. But it does not seek change as a principle. Change for the sake of change is the ideology of the cancer cell. It is the saprophyte that sucks the life out of the host.

We must change how Social Security is structured and funded. We must change Medicare/Medicaid to a system that will not continue to metastasize until it eats the entire treasury. We need to drive a stake through the stake of the heart of the Medicare drug plan and change it before it outspends the defense budget. We must change the whole tort system and reign in the idiocy rampant in "malpractice" suits.

The primary job of government is to protect the nation and to provide for the long term security of the people. Borrowing from the future to increase the goodies for the now is lousy government. Every socialist government has played that game and failed or is on the brink of failing. They can only sustain themselves by sucking in a spiraling growth of foreigners to fund the now while further indebting the future.

If the Republican party is going to hop on the goodie wagon as its vehicle for change, then goodbye Republicans. The Democrats are the undisputed champions of tax and spend. Why even think of that game plan?</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;Because the story from last night wasn’t the primary in West Virginia, it was the result out of Mississippi’s 1st.&lt;/i&gt;

Did you even look at the candidate in Mississippi's First District?

Travis Childers had to DISOWN Obama and make it clear that Obama had not endorsed him.

Travis Childers also ran ads &lt;a href="http://cottonmouthblog.blogspot.com/2008/04/new-childers-ad-for-april-22nd-special.html" rel="nofollow"&gt; stating&lt;/a&gt;, "I'm pro-gun and pro-life."

In short, the only Democrats who are winning are the ones who emphatically reject their party's leadership and embrace Republican positions.

Childers won't last; either his constituents will figure out he's nothing more than a liar when he backs Pelosi on all of her pro-abortion, increased-spending, and anti-gun measures, or he'll buck Pelosi and be destroyed by her and her crony circles. No-win situation.</description>

		<description>Besides McCain, nobody else in the Republican field would even have a chance against the Democrats. As NRCC chairman Tom Cole said last night, Republican candidates need to find a way to run as change candidates. That's a very difficult prospect, given the political environment. However, I think McCain does have a chance of doing that. He has to wrestle away the change banner from Obama. But if I were a betting man (which i'm not), I'd put very long odds on a McCain victory. If the status quo holds, the Democrat will win by a comfortable margin.</description>

		<description>Yeah.  That's the other side of the argument.  Like I said, I'm torn.  Every time I start thinking, OK, McCain's better, I can get behind him - he'll do something new to remind me why I can't.</description>

Why do you presume it's like 1976? Barack Obama is a very charismatic individual, much more so than Jimmy Carter. It could be 1932.</description>

		<description>I'm really torn about McCain.  Evidently, vast swaths of the American people really want to give another try to leftism and the disastrous ideas of Jimmy Carter.  And evidently, the Republicans *won't* reform themselves or repair their brand or challenge the Democrats' faulty premises or set the necessary common-sense, small-government agenda until AFTER such a disaster has taken place.  So shouldn't we just get the disaster over with?  Have it now?  (sincere question)</description>

		<description>Because &lt;i&gt;the&lt;/i&gt; story from last night wasn't the primary in West Virginia, it was the result out of Mississippi's 1st. In 2008, the Democrats have now increased their House majority by 3 seats and folks, it's not even November yet. Because of President Bush, the voters are still punishing the Republican's in the Congress, even though Republicans are in the minority. Which is why I've maintained over the past year that Republican glee over the low approval rating of Congress was misguided. As long as President Bush is the head of our government, voters won't blame the Democrats for anything.</description>

		<description>Now, what I came to say: It looks like Hillary could catch up in the popular vote in the popular vote in the remaining contests.  Which is the Democrats' "nightmare scenario": she wins the popular vote, or can plausibly claim to, but Obama is still ahead is delegates.

Now, how would they resolve that?  Would it be fighting in the streets, or a joint ticket?  We all know that, to ordinary people, a joint ticket would make a lot of sense.  But could Hillary accept being number two?  Or could Obama?  I don't think either of them could.  I also think Hillary will believe that she has most to gain, in her quest for power, by continuing to undermine Obama 2008 and gaining the nomination and the Presidency for herself in 2012 (if she can't have it in 2008).</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The thing is no reasonable white person is going to vote for a black man in this country and everyone in West Virginia knows it right?.&lt;/blockquote&gt;Troll alert!  Notice the double racism of the comment: if it is "just sarcasm" or "just a joke", then it's reverse-racist on West VA voters.  But we already know Jae Anderson is a troll from threads such as this one, a few months ago:
