According to a NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, the GOP is getting the blame for the federal shutdown, by a 53-21 margin. Only 24 percent have a favorable opinion of the GOP, and just 21 view of the Tea Party in a good light.
Locally, this is bad news for LC Exec candidate Scott Ott and for NorCo Council Republicans running for at-large seats.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
Of course it is.
ReplyDeleteDidn't think much of Romney, but he had the 47% nailed. He shouldn't have run from what he said. He should have called them, to their faces, what they are.
If you keep telling a drunk he ain't one, and he keeps telling himself he ain't one, the drinking never stops.

Clem, It sounds like its time for you to put down the bottle oldtimer.
ReplyDeleteYou aren't very bright, are you?

Bright enough to know the whacko teabaggers are the best thing to happen to the Democratic party since Bill Clinton.
ReplyDeleteKeep on swinging!
Amazing to me how so many can accept the emerging single-party America. Blind faith is dangerous. Be VERY careful.

Never trust Poles.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Poles....they gave us Kielbasa!
ReplyDeleteIt's the polls I don't trust!
I just saw a poll that showed that 95% of the voters don't like higher taxes.
ReplyDeleteThis is bad news for LC Executive candidate Tom Muller, who was the architect behind the county's recent 16% tax hike. It also won't help the Dem Commissioner candidates who have aligned themselves with Muller.
Are you referrin to he tax hike they ran Dean Browning out of town on a rain on? The tax that promised to repeal last year? The one they said they'd be repealing in phases a few months ago? The one they say nothing about now?
ReplyDeleteLooks like that tax was not only necessary, ut might have been a tad low.
But you go ahead and try to balance the budget on the backs of your workforce.
Fred, we are polarizing.
ReplyDeleteGood day for Democrats!
ReplyDeleteThe House has just officially surrendered. It has rendered its position meaningless. It will take YEARS to regain an effective voice.
A single-party America IS now here. Good luck to all.
I've already notified the GOP I'm changing registration, after the next Primary.

That's a winning slogan for Muller -
ReplyDeleteThe Last Tax Hike I Gave You Was Too Low!
How refreshingly honest. Can't wait to see it on Muller's next mailer.
I am a teabagger and proud of it!
ReplyDeleteAs it should.
ReplyDeleteThe Republican Party has to decide if it is going to be taken over by the "Tealibans" or if they will throw them out for the extremist bandits they are, and return to their normal functioning conservative roots, pre-Hannity, Limbaugh, Faux Noise and the Crock Brothers.
