1. Music to my ears! It's getting to where I look forward to the poll

numbers each week! They just keep getting better and better!

2. The Tide Finally Turned Because THEY Showed Their True Faces

The Bush Administration's frightening criminality and lack of conscience or compassion has managed to accomplish what all the "tested" "framing" routines failed to, and get people to understand: 1) Liberals are not the problem; 2) Republicans destroy everything, and they intend to. Now that the horrible things have actually happened, and we have the results, and everything is sinking, the case, sadly, is easy to make. It is obviously true.

3. Yeah, but the question is, what will the Democrats do about this, besides

squeaking, "They like us! They REALLY like us!"

[opihimoimoi]

4. The Dems will do well enough...when the Oppositioin is busy fucking

up...why say anything and spoil it....?

[Iris]

5. Because I don't think simply sitting around waiting for your opponent to

"fuck things up" is the best strategy.

[opihimoimoi]

6. I really don't think they were sitting around waiting...tho it looks that

way...

But, however...its working...bushies numbers are tanking, the screw up list by the Pubs/Bush keeps growing....peeps are seeing the pubs in the light and they don like what they see...Hence the polls showing the House most likely will revert back to the Dems...

If Bush continues his ways...the Senate may also fall to the Dems...

In a way, Bush was the best thing to happen for the dems....the fence sitters/Indies can now see the damage this guy is causing...

Come, we go eat mangos....lol...

[Iris]

7. ok, ok. But can I have a mango marquerita?

[opihimoimoi]

8. Coming right up and some steamed lobsters with smoked ribs to boot.

10. Free Repulic Posters are blaming the "MSM"...really getting desperate.

Lies, lies and more lies from the MSM.

They irritate me into evenings of classic movies instead of the news, and I haven't purchased a newspaper in years.

Hurry up and die, MSM.
