Yes, the press loves a horse race.
But with unemployment high, the voters want Democratic ideas, not less.
We’ll see… Those who predicted a neck-and-neck presidential election were proven wrong.
It’s funny but some commentators are saying that Larry Reid’s seat is at risk because of the negro dialect comment. That might work to his advantage when the real Americans in Nevada come out and vote.

I can’t recall seeing this many politicians, of both parties, hitting the exits.
While some, like Dodd, were expected; others, like Dorgan, were a surprise.
2010 elections should be veddy interesting.[/quote]
be careful, the press loves a horse race.
Coakley is running a shit campaign.
Rahm is certainly doing a great job of demobilizing
the democratic base.even if Brown wins, the house could pass the senate bill and that’s it.
or Reid could grow a pair and stick a health care bill on top of funding for the troops.[/quote]
Pat: What strikes me is the complete cluelessness of both Democrats and Republicans.
Rahm might be doing a great job of demobilizing the Dem base, but the Republicans are matching him, stroke for stroke, when it comes to a lack of qualified candidates, unifying ideology, or even basic understanding of what the American public is seeking.
I listen to complete clowns like Limbaugh and Palin and Steele and realize that they are as out to lunch as the Dems are.
In a truly weird way, we may have moved into a post-partisan age, but only because both parties have shown themselves incapable of leadership.

Brian: Wait a minute, weren’t you the guy that said ideas and ideals weren’t important, but pragmatism was? You know, in response to the contention that Obama hasn’t followed through on quite a few of his campaign promises, especially those dealing with the preservation of our civil liberties.
With unemployment high, the voters want JOBS. Screw ideas. Ideas don’t put food on the table or pay the bills. Unless and until the Dems figure out the job problem, they’re foursquare in the voter’s sights. You’re seeing this now, with the rapidity of Obama’s slide in popularity. Whether its right or wrong, people are now holding him responsible for the state of the economy.
