Boulder is a Stoopid Place

Obama Supporters Defecting to GOP, Poll Shows

It’s a wide enthusiasm gap that’s buoying Republicans, who are poised for big electoral gains, and worrying Democrats, who are seeking to hang onto majorities in Congress as well among governors. Obama’s party hopes its superior get-out-the-vote operation, updated from his groundbreaking campaign, can overcome Republicans’ energized supporters to mitigate expected losses across the board

Didn’t I say something like “I can’t wait to vote!”?

Sweet.

Bill Clinton back out campaigning ‘for everybody that helped Hillary run for president’ against Obama

hmmmm

In Boulder I’m sure that’s just where they want to be.  Not so much the rest of the nation, especially “flyover country”.

Here are some highlights from The Hill 2010 Midterm Election Poll done by the polling firm Penn, Schoen and Berland :

• Results for independent voters reflected the larger sample. Forty-three percent of likely independent voters said the Democratic party is more dominated by its extreme elements compared to 37 percent who though the GOP had fallen under the sway of extreme views.
• The data surprised Democratic strategists and political experts in a campaign season when much media attention has focused on the battle between the GOP establishment and Tea Party-backed candidates such as Sharron Angle in Nevada and Christine O’Donnell in Delaware.

Doing her part recently, Daily Camera editorial page editor Erika Stutzmen couldn’t resist taking a swipe at Christine O’Donnell in an editorial that on the surface was about Republicans not showing up for a local debate.

Moving on…

• “All the press coverage has been about how these Tea Party candidates are fringe ideologues, and there have been high-profile examples of them proving the point,” he added. “Yet, still at this moment, you have independents saying, ‘I think the Democrats are little more extreme than the Republicans.’” Once again the DC was glad to carry the Democrats water.
• The survey also showed that a majority of Democratic voters want their representatives in Congress to work harder to achieve compromise with Republicans. Fifty-eight percent of Democrats said they would urge the lawmaker they supported to “look for compromises across the aisle”; only 35 percent would rather urge their representatives to “stay firm on their principles.”

  Kessler, of Third Way, said this is a sign that many Democrats think their party has shifted too far to the left in recent years.Now that sounds inflammatory.  Negotiate with the “party of no”!??

Jammy wearing fool also comments on the poll results…
 

In other words, clear-thinking people have tuned out the lamestream media and their mantra about how crazy tea partiers are. The think they can constantly harp on Angle and O’Donnell yet they overlook the surge nationwide from independents toward the GOP. The media won’t change, they’ll just lose more viewers and readers.

Well the Daily Camera lost our readership many years ago.  I can’t imagine why a Republican/Conservative would subscribe to the paper except to “know what the enemy” is up to.

And here’s the real gem…

Meanwhile, the delusional extremist who lives at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue says the GOP will have to accommodate him more when they take over. I’ll have some of what he’s smoking.

The arrogance never stops.  I haven’t missed an election in many years, including primaries, but most of the time my vote meant nothing.  I can’t wait to vote this year.  I think the results will be very interesting.

Darren over at Right On the Left Coast chimes in with his “He Just Doesn’t Get It” post. 

Uh, Barack? You are going to have to learn how to get along with Republicans, too.

Gawd, this man’s arrogance and self-importance know no bounds.

That’s for sure.
