R108, this guy’s letter does not support your contention that the Rs will win Congress back. 

The fact remains and is apparently lost on you that the Republican party lost 7 Senate seats and 30 House seats in 2006.  It has now lost three congressional seats in strong republican districts in the last couple of months after pouring a lot of money into those races and after Bush/Cheney campaigned for the R candidates.

The Republicans are having difficulty raising money, finding top tier candidates to run.  There are few to no democratic House members on the endangered list but there are quite a few Republican House members.  There are open seats that the Dems are likely to pick up and they have top tier candidates running in both the House and Senate.

The Rs are going to be forced to spend money they don’t have in many races they can ill afford to spend money. 

You and your friend quoted above simply haven’t done the research that you should do.  You don’t have quality candidates, you don’t have money, and you don’t have the ability to defend the seats you have to much less try to pick up any seats.

Please tell me in what congressional district that the Republicans have a prayer in picking up a seat.

My one hope left is that Robert108 is right and we get a brokered convention and Fred ‘the conservative’ cream’ Thompson can pull it out at the last roundup!

Excuse me, you were saying?

R108, this guy’s letter does not support your contention that the Rs will win Congress back.

Not “my contention”: the only hope to rescue America from becoming your socialist hellhole, dude.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

R108, again you have not provided one whit of evidence that the Rs are in any position to regain the House or the Senate. 

And on top of that using Obama’s call for “hope” is just too funny.

R108, again you have not provided one whit of evidence that the Rs are in any position to regain the House or the Senate.

There’s no “evidence” either way, until the election actually takes place.  With all the speculation going only one way, it’s good to hear the other side of the story.  Sorry it’s so threatening to you.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

What part of this

For all you defeatists out there, here’s another opinion:

didn’t you understand?

Save America; boycott the MSM.

What other side of the story? that the Republicans lost seats and that this loss of seats was a normal loss of seats.  How does this article bring you closer to regaining Congress or even tell the other side of the story.  You called out “defeatists” and I argue that you were defeated.  What part of this don’t you understand?

all the info in that letter was picked up off the Limbaugh show today. I heard it all!

pp: Yes; he attributed it to a “letter to the editor"(like I did) on The American Thinker.

andy: We were defeated last time, but this time is still up in the air.  Duh.  You guys were soundly trounced in ‘94.  So what?

Save America; boycott the MSM.

pp: If you check the time, and account for the difference in time zones, you will see I posted this about eleven hours before Rush’s show started.  I know you’re desperate and clutching at straws, but this is ridiculous.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

This time is still up in the air?  Under what scenario? 
The problem R108, is that the article doesn’t give any reasonable explanation as to why 2008 won’t bring continued losses to the Republicorp party.  I have provided information to show the probability that these losses will continue. Duh!

This time is still up in the air? Under what scenario?

The election is over five months away, and the election results aren’t known yet.  Duh.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

andy: I don’t buy your partisan guessing game.  You lefties try to win by propaganda, but the ugly facts about who Obama really is are coming out on a daily basis, and many disaffected Republicans and conservatives can’t stomach McCain either, so we have five months to mobilize for a Congress that will neutralize whichever leftie wins the Presidency.
Hell, I know plenty of Dems who don’t like either Obama or Hillary, and also think they are bad for America.  Despite the steady rain of MSM propaganda, most Americans like their individual independence, and see that both candidates want to take that away.  Our only hope is a Congress that will support the founding principles of America.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

Fine, R108, your only hope is congress.  But you have yet to cite any information that indicates that there is any reasonable chance that the Republicorps can retake Congress.  They have been outraised by the Democrats, the Rs have more seats to defend, they couldn’t get top tier candidates to run, the president’s ratings are at an all time low and the republicorps won’t be seen with him in public.

Those “disaffected” republicorps won’t vote for McCain and won’t also try to get Congress.  Not even the Republicorps in congress think they can retake congress.

Just which democratically held seats do you think can be retaken?  How will that be accomplished?  And please don’t cite “by acting like conservatives” because the republicorps gave up on that a long time age, and no one recognizes a conservative any more.

If conservatives don’t come out to vote for McCain, the Republican downballot is going to suffer that much more.

Yet one more reason not to hold out on McCain.

andydakota - “Republicorps”?

Is that supposed to be clever?

*yawn* How dopey.

Meanwhile...

And please don’t cite “by acting like
conservatives” because the republicorps gave up on that a long time age,and no one recognizes a conservative any more.

That’s where you’re wrong, leftie.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

Please cite for me anything that indicates that the current crop of republicorps will change anything that they have done over the past 8 years.  Please cite for me anything that indicates that the republicorps have learned any lessons from the past 8 years of spend spend spend and charge, charge charge. 

Anything?  Anything?

andyd, the gop has saved us lots money on mine and bridge inspections, and just think of the savings the gop has made by not taking care of the returning troops and the military hospitals. the gop is trying to save money in the meat inspection industry too. Gotta hand it to them on how they saved tax payers money by not building new schools and re distributing Chinese loans to no bid Halliburton contracts.

Excuse me, you were saying?

the gop has saved us lots money on mine and bridge inspections,

Like the bridge in Minnesota? Please, by name, oh dropper of bullshit allegationsgive us the Republicans who did such things?

Barack Obama: All hat and no cattle since 1997!

andy: Show me that the Dems have ever learned one thing from their disastrous, tax, regulate and spend war against business in this country.  Obama and Pelosi both vow new taxes and regulations, which are bound to increase outsourcing.  It’s really funny when a tax-crazed leftie criticizes govt spending.

Save America; boycott the MSM.

BTW, I’m glad to see how the theme of this thread: presenting another side to the prevailing doom and gloom, has roused the resident leftie loons to a fever pitch of denial.  Struck a nerve!

Save America; boycott the MSM.
