The 2006 election from a historical view

Dems don't like hearing that their new baby is ugly.

And Republicans, in turn, apparently don't like admitting that their own bad ideas lost them an election.

It makes you wonder what dunderheaded right-wing blog the good "professor" copied and pasted this from.

Isn't the correct grammar "an historical", not "a historical"?

How many factual errors are there in this list of crap anyway?

How many relevant facts have been left out? How many of these elections resulted in a shift of control of both the Senate and the House?

How many Dem's lost a re-election bid this election?

If you can't recognize the historical outcomes of this election, you've lost your objectivity, which is a shame for anyone.


I love this spin - 'it always happens like this'. Nice try. If it makes you feel better to believe the drivel you've written here, then so be it, but spare us the 10 threads a day about it from now on, ok?

Especially after 6 years of political manipulation to make the GOP 'Election-Proof' - whereas the boundry manipulation
and gerrymandering of several voting districts throughout the country were redrawn to give the GOP tremendous
advantages in the polls by effectively eliminating a Democrat Party by dilution - and the very fact that
is is extremely difficult to unseat an Incumbent, considering that the Incumbent has more name recognition
and party financial backing, and can draw from National Party Leadership to provide guest speakers in support as well.

Face it, in spite of all the pro-partisan games by a party solidly in control, the American Voters were able to remove
from office almost 40 federal level polititians that were corrupt and protected by their own mechanisms.
When you get to the local level - Dallas is an example of voter blow-back.
There was a huge turnout in a known and established Republican stronghold that scrapped an overwhelming
amount of GOP candidates - cold, and replaced them with Democrats.

The extremist Right-Wing pandering and self serving intrests of the GOP has at least temporarily killed their over-reaching ambitions.
The American voter has for now rescued the country from the fanatics that tried to claim it as thier own
and ignored the simple fact that polititians serve at the pleasure of the voting public, and are not servants to the masters.

I don't know about '48, but a lot of the rest is on Ann Coulter's latest article.
