Dem recruits Head For The Exits

Dem recruits continue to head for exits - The Hill's Blog Briefing Room: 
"Democrats have lost yet another touted recruit, this time in Kansas.
State Sen. Laura Kelly (D) just announced her withdrawal from the race to face Rep. Lynn Jenkins (R-Kan.). She becomes the fifth formidable recruit to bow out in recent weeks.
“I have been forced to make a decision between honoring the pledge I made to the people in my Senate district and my firm conviction that the people of the 2nd congressional district deserve a truly independent voice in Congress,' Kelly said in a statement.
“This has been a very hard decision, but it is the right one.”"

As someone who has soured on the "two party system", and the Gang Of 535 that we have in D.C., I fell in love with the following posters comment:

"As a registered republican of the actual 1 party system, don't fret dems because these repubs that are incumbents are going to get kicked out also. Americans haven't forgotten all of the banking cartel bailouts that repubs as well as dems voted our tax dollars to pay for. The repubs are a part of the 2 headed one body of the same bird. You might say that "we are cleaning house."

I doubt that the Tea Party will solve the problem of getting rid of the low life's that infest the Hallowed Halls Of Congress and the White House, but it's a start. Then again the next terrorist attack on our country could well be in D.C. That might sober them up a bit. Naaah, they'll just continue on with the Politically Correct facade, refusing to admit that we are in a Holy War with the Islami. Not just "Radical Jihadists", all of  Islam.

Drunk With Power

Let me start off by saying this, Senator Baucus is either Drunk as a Skunk, or he is doing the best impression of Foster Brooks I have ever seen in my life. If he had a few more Pops, he would have really been on the Senate Floor - Literally. Doesn't this behavior make you respect the fools in DC even more than you already do?
I for one am curious as to how this will play out in the MSM news cycle come this Monday. I'll bet that the Democratic Strategists will be tripping all over themselves tomorrow trying to explain his behavior away. Let's see, will it be "the stress of the negotiations for Health Care Reform", celebrating Christmas in DC far from friends and family, an insulin attack, or that old favorite "it's all George Bush's fault".

Hey Harry: Where Is Nevada's Gift?

SHERMAN FREDERICK: Opinion - ReviewJournal.com: 
"I'm very disappointed.
It's Christmas morning and I can't find one single gift to Nevada from Sen. Harry Reid under the health-care 'reform' tree."

This is a very amusing, very brief, Christmas Op-Ed piece from the Las Vegas Review. I must say I was surprised that such a short tongue in cheek article could generate so many comments, 454 and counting. I'm getting the feeling that, contrary to the common belief held by Washington insiders, the American public will NOT forget about all of this come next November.
