Never forget the pain you felt yesterday...
Sometimes the cure hurts so badly that you wonder if it's worth it. After the pain becomes more tolerable with time, I think we will be glad half of the Blue Dogs are history. I think a lot of the republican gains were a result of a lot of democrats being so damned sick of the same old shit in Washington that they didn't give enough of a damn to come out and vote for people who voted like republicans most of the time.

A natural purge of the Blue Dogs brought on by their own greed, narrow mindedness and their fear for their jobs.

I hope Obama can find a place for Russ and some of the real democrats who paid for the Blue Dog's chicken heartedness. Russ is a patriot.

1. Yesterday's pain
It felt like 2004 all over again - especially in Pa. where my favorite Patrick Murphy took a fall and my least favorite "Corbett" is our new governor. Don't even want to discuss Toomey.

But, you've given me something to be optimistic about regarding the Blue Dogs. Glad to see them go.

2. Please clear something up for me...j
On some lists, Patrick Murphy is listed as a Blue Dog but if memory serves correctly, wasn't he on the Dean for America list a few years ago?

8. Murphy - Blue Dog Progressive
Murphy ran as a blue dog but he voted as a progressive.

Here's his record:

Votes with Pelosi on economic issues 95%
Votes to keep PAYGO rules 8%
RePORK Card Score 0%
On Obamacare Voted YES
Repeal ObamaCare's Individual Mandate? Voted NO
On Cap and Trade Voted YES
On Stimulus Voted YES
On TARP Voted YES
On Repealing TARP Voted NO
On Obama Budget Voted YES
On Cash for Clunkers Voted YES
On Auto Bailout Voted YES
On Fannie/Freddie Bailout Voted YES

I don't see Murphy's name on this list:

But - I'd have to do more research.

The Orange Man and the freeper hordes have embraced Dumplin Dave Vitter's dirty laundry and I expect the crap to get real deep, real fast.
