Was last night a sign that everyone loves the GOP?
Come on..we all know the answer to that.
This was people who have no clue voting for an snake oil salesman (in 08) and forgetting how good they had it with the GOP..but how good did they have it?
Simply put the GOP fucked up.
They were liberal-lite.
They had total control for 6 years and did a little bit, but not much.
They spent too much, just not as much as the liberals did the second they got in.
They have a chance to be in charge for atleast 6 more years.
Are they going to be true conservatives or just a little less liberal-lite this time?
If they are true conservatives, if they nominate an actual conservative in 12, they will gain more seats and have total control for a min of 4 years.
It was proven on Tuesday that America does not want liberalism.
GOP, give them what they want.
Like Scott Walker said, its time to put up or shut up.
Don't listen to the media, don't give into the temptation GOP. Don't nominate a McCain.
Tuesday America spoke loud and clear...they don't like high taxes, they don't like socialized medicine. They want the government out of the way...

So what does this mean for America?
Olbermann suspended for Dem contributions
Why is this a problem?
Are we really pretending that people in the media are not liberal?
Come on...
They are 85 percent liberals and that is just the way it is...
The problem is that even if they try and be "fair and balanced" it is impossible.
The bias comes in the stories they choose to report, the labels they put on people.
It is the way it is.
Just one example.
Republicans were described as "extreme" a large number of times in the past few weeks on MSNBC..dems, zero.
Just one example..a little late to get into it now.
But I'm really surprised there is a rule that tries to assume these people are going to be operating "down the middle"
More election facts: Best GOP year since '66, or '56, or '38, or '28 ...
Historical notes about Tuesday's red wave:
1. Ron Johnson’s 52% was the best performance by a Republican Senate candidate in Wisconsin since, brace yourself … 1956.
2. Johnson will be only the second Republican to serve in the Senate from Wisconsin since the Kennedy Administration, the third since Joe McCarthy, and the fourth since the 1930s.
3. Republicans gained two U.S. House seats in Wisconsin for the first time since 1966.
4. I couldn’t find any other time in the last 50 years that one party in Wisconsin has gained or lost three seats in Congress. It happened Tuesday when Republicans picked up two U.S. House seats and a Senate seat.
5. According to the Wisconsin GOP, the 14 state Assembly seats the party gained is the most since 1938. (We warned you on election day to remember 1938). The four state Senate seats the party gained is the most since 1980.
These additional factoids come from UW-Madison political science chair John Coleman:
1. Republicans nationally have their most state legislative seats since 1928 (about 3,920, with some still too close to call; that’s 53% of all the legislative seats in the country).
2. Republicans gained 19 state legislative chambers across the country, with four additional chambers still up in the air but potential pickups.
3. Democrats now control only 38% of the state legislative seats in the Midwest; their worst since 1956.
4. The GOP gain of 680 legislative seats nationally (across lower and upper houses) was the most by either party since 1966.
5. Republicans will control at least 55 chambers, their most since 1952.
6. Democrats gained seats in only one state lower chamber (Delaware) and five upper chambers (Hawaii, Massachusetts, Maryland, West Virginia, Pennsylvania).
7. In the battle for Congress, 49 Democratic House incumbents and only two Republican incumbents were defeated. An additional 14 open seats held by Democrats were picked up by Republicans; only one open seat flipped from Republican to Democrat.
8. Wisconsin's Russ Feingold was one of only two incumbent Democrats in the Senate to be defeated along with Arkansas' Blanche Lincoln; no GOP senators lost. Four open seats in the Senate switched from Democrat to Republican.
Health care costs going up up up
It's not over American..we just took the first step.
Now we actually have to save America..
The election just got us a spot in the race, but the other horses have been training for years...
Don't be happy just getting invited, you have to work hard and train like its Rocky I
From article:
WASHINGTON – AARP’s endorsement helped secure passage of President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul. Now the seniors’ lobby is telling its employees their insurance costs will rise partly as a result of the law.
In an e-mail to employees, AARP says health care premiums will increase by 8 percent to 13 percent next year because of rapidly rising medical costs.
And AARP adds that it’s changing copayments and deductibles to avoid a 40 percent tax on high-cost health plans that takes effect in 2018 under the law. Aerospace giant Boeing also has cited the tax in asking its workers to pay more. Shifting costs to employees lowers the value of a health care plan and acts like an escape hatch from the tax.
GOP: You have two years and you are out?
That is what liberals are saying right now.
That type of comment shows they are missing the reason they took an ass whoooooopin' on Tuesday.
It isn't JUST that America is messing up right now.
It is that things are messed up AND Democrats kept doing things that Americans did not like or think would help.
If the GOP introduces things that Americans think are good ideas and can help change things for the better, they will win more in 2012 with the promise these ideas will be put into motion.
We all know little will actually happen for the next two years, but maybe that is a good thing.
Now businesses can start making plans knowing Obama can not throw a bunch of new taxes and regulations on them
Unemployment will drop soon just because of that fact.
GOP, just propose things Americans think actually makes this country better, because it clear that they do not like govt run health care or huge spending and tax increases...

Check Out Some Songs Carrie Underwood Recorded When She Was 14!
CARRIE UNDERWOOD fans probably know about this . . . but I didn't. Way before "American Idol" . . . when she was around 13 or 14 . . . Carrie had a budding music career. She recorded a bunch of songs and almost signed a Nashville record deal. The whole thing fizzled out and she went back to Oklahoma to finish high school and, eventually, college. Anyway, there is an entire album of songs from back then. It's called "Broken Wings" . . . and it's all cover songs from artists like the Dixie Chicks, Martina McBride and Jo Dee Messina. It's for sale on a website called SoundsBox.com, and it'll cost you $1.76. No joke. If that's too rich for your blood, individual songs are 14-cents apiece. Or if you're super cheap, you can listen to samples for free! :)
Nashville Man Kicked Out of Kenny Chesney Concert for Looking Like Kenny Chesney!
A Nashville man was kicked out of Kenny Chesney's Saturday-night concert in Music City for looking too much like Kenny Chesney. Nathan Blankenship was dressed similar to Chesney -- wearing a sleeveless shirt and straw cowboy hat -- and he told reports that people sometimes say he looks like the country star. Blankenship says, "I can't help the way I look."
Security at the concert venue, LP Field, claims Blankenship was causing a disturbance among fans who thought they were seeing Chesney in the audience. Security personnel escorted Blankenship out of the stadium as a result.
He says, "I think the way they handled it made it seem worse, like they were really escorting Kenny Chesney through the crowd." It seems Nathan Blankenship has been through this kind of thing before, though. An official at LP Field says Metro Nashville police knew about Blankenship looking like Chesney before the concert began. Apparently, country stars at previous Nashville concerts have spotted Blankenship in the crowd and thought he was causing a similar disturbance. Blankenship is also upset about having to give up his $200 concert ticket to the show. Kenny Chesney's camp released a statement Monday saying they didn't know about Blankenship getting kicked out of the concert until it was reported in the media. Concert promoter Kate McMahon of The Messina Group says they are reaching out to Blankenship to make the situation right.
