US Senate Round Up

icon

Glad I didn't get a manicure this week - The Minnesota recount is a real nail-biter.

Jon Stewart's send up of Saxby & Palin and Martin & Luda is priceless.

This last minute robocall probably helped Senator Big Daddy.

Grift and Wilson do their usual post-mortem. Be sure to read Wilson's comments before listening to the show.

Back to holiday baking, crafts, and party-planning.

  • Doesn't have anything to do with the senate but it made me giggle: http://gawker.com/...ngresswoman-hung-up-on-obama--twice

  • You mean, you hadn't heard the radio ads that basically made it sound like Jim (in between killing children, selling them into prostitution, raising taxes, and absconding with public funds, of course) runs around with a vacuum cleaner forcing abortions on any pregnant woman he finds?

    Marilyn Muffdive got exactly what she deserved.

  • Too bad Stewart couldn't do a drop-in of "If I have one more drink, I'm-a end up voting for you... "

  • thanks Paula, that made me laugh out loud. Sorry about that, Sir, my caller id said it was you!

  • Meanwhile a certain Democrat is taking a discussion about the DPG to places where it shouldn't go, even if he has a forum for Democrats.

    Take a guess who I'm talking about.

    And this comment thing is making me teh angryz (as I am sure it is doing to everyone else).

  • Andre's just an attention whore.

  • "With millions and millions of dollars spent on his behalf, Jim Martin got 42.6% of the vote in his United States Senate campaign. That is only 0.3% more than what Jim Martin got two years ago when he ran for Lt. Governor. To make matters worse, Saxby Chambliss gathered almost 40% of the vote in Fulton County during the December 2nd run-off. That is an increase of about seven percentage points from the 33% Chambliss received in Fulton County during the November general election.

    Jim Martin lost. Jim Powell lost. There were insignificant gains for the Democrats in the state House. There were no gains for the Democrats in the state Senate. And the state Democratic Party is six figures in debt.

    What time is it?

    It is time for Kidd to go."

    I just read his argument. It's not bad. Why should Kidd stay if she hasn't improved things any, exactly? Shouldn't someone else get a shot before things get even worse?

  • Also on that blog I found the best comment:

    "The Democrats can become competitive and regain power if they will focus on transportation and education. The party needs to carve out a position on both issues and recruit candidates that will enunciate and explain the parties positions. Nobody knows what being a Democrat means in Georgia. Simply opposing the majority is not enough. When people vote democratic they need to have an understanding of what the party stands for."
