.....59 more Democrats to unseat in the Senate.

Way to go Massachusetts!!!

I would have thought the Democrats could have run a goat in that seat and won by a landslide!!

Us people that work and pay taxes sure are happy, more to come in November, get em out

Maybe too radical but I always thought below:

Probably not PC but always thought the real high tax payers should get some work performed by welfare recipients. Recipients to get their checks would have to perform community service or work for high tax bracket taxpayers. Bill Gates could have enough lawn care workers to run a golf course.

Would give people somthing to work for, and a chance to make the people who pay feel like they get something for their tax dollars. Success would be paying enough taxes to get a welfare worker. If they had to work I think they would get a job, lowering overall recipients.

Thats what I would call MOTIVATION

North Dakota is here to help. With Dorgan on his way out and Hoven running, the Rebuplican will be a shoe-in there. There's a good chance we'll get a conservative back into the house too. I don't know about you guys, but I'm really excited to vote in this election.

Is Hoven the man for sure? I've heard that Kevin Cramer who is on the Public Utilities Commission may be seeking that seat for the Republicans. I met Kevin in December at a conference in Minneapolis and was impressed by his candor think he would be a fine choice.

I don't usually get political on this site, but I have to say I was ROFLMAO during Brown's victory speech last night....when the crowd kept chanting "YES WE CAN!!"

Obama insults God and Guns and now pickup trucks. Take THAT!! And now I hear he's fixin to "double down" and roll the dice of political doom and dig his heels in on pushing his agenda.

This year out comes the BROOM (maybe the same one Pelosi rides on) and I would not be at the least surprised at a groundswell of anger, KICKIN EM ALL OUT for the mess they've gotten us into.

Wouldn't be surprised either if CA follows suit, if it can happen in Massachusetts, it's a cake walk in CA. :beer:

High Five to MA!!! Didn't think they could do it....but we can do better, YES WE CAN!!!

Yes Bill, it is a start. It did my heart good to see MA rally behind, what I hope is not just talk, a down home conservative. It made me feel and I'm sure many other Americans who marched on Washington back on 912 that it meant something.

Obama's arrogance showed itself once again during his rally speech behind Coakley. His words, like 2fast4mom said now about our pick up trucks, show us how Washington feels about the American people.

I always felt conservatives were the backbone of this country but are usually the silent nose to the grindstone type of people and like the Japs said after Pearl Harbor..."We Woke a Sleeping Giant"

Being from south alabama we have our own problems with our state government, from legal bingo machines being legal or task force attorneys
looking to shut down new establishments that in just over 6 months has employed 1300 workers, that has went to neighboring casinos and won money.
It is all about personal agenda, and also all welfare-diabilty-medicaid- or any government subsidies receipiants should be drug tested or no check!!!! Freaking freeloaders. I'm done now i feel better.

He is for sure the man. It was announced a few days ago. I think Cramer is running for the house seat maybe? I'm not for sure on that one though. Hoven did his job here. He got us out of a nasty deficit and now we have a large budget surplus in our state, and lower taxes. I'm all for it.
