Or could it be a anti-Washington mood? Maybe it is ant business as usual mood? Or is it an anti Obama mood? Americans will take away what they want from the latest elections in Kentucky or Penn or Arkansas. They will see the Tea Party as a growing movement or a rise in GOP support or a decline in the support for the Dem Party. And there will be those that see it process lately as a revolt against the entire process in Washington. These are the races that the GOP will be spinning…….but there is NO spin in Kentucky…..the main GOP backed candidate lost real BAD to a Tea Partier and Penn may be spun as a weak candidate for the Dems in a year when the people are tracking more closely with the Repubs…
All that is true…the people are tracking more conserv and the people are fed up with Washington games, from both sides of the aisle….but the one that they will avoid is the 12th District of Penn special election…..a Dem in a 94% white district, a overwhelmingly conserv district, and blue collar working class district went to a Dem…….now if the the people are tracking more in line with the GOP, how is it that a heavy backed Repub candidate could NOT win in such a district?
It has been said that if the Repubs could not win in the 12th District, how will they possibly take over the House when there a 435 seats up for grabs?
Personally, I see all this as a anti-incumbent mood of the people….they are sick and tired of the games these people play, especially with their lives. The GOP will have to keep playing the partisan game until November and then hopefully will have enough people in Congress to keep playing it with the hopes of defeating Obama in 2012. All it will take is some really good news on the economy, not the piddling crap they give us now, and the GOP will be in deep fecal matter in 2012 and partisan games will come back and bite them in the ass….but the sad part is that the American people will be the losers no matter which way the political winds blow.
I am still not convinced that all this is for the better….not for the people and not for the government…..this will be MORE polarizing politically….and even less will get done than now….and we are at a virtual standstill now…..so this bodes bad for the country…Just a thought……
