Current election
Okay so I live in DC, Northern Virginia area, but still go back to NC monthly. So I get to see two of the States that the GOP needs to win and the campaign ads that are being ran in each state.
I can say, IMO the GOP once again isn't doing a good job and trying to win key states. The DemocRat opponent ads are running the airwaves every commercial break. Also the DemocRat back PACs and Super PAC originations are running their own ads against the GOP candidates. For me this is not going to get people to change their votes and I will even say, it won't get people out and vote for the GOP. |
Out here the Congressional race is nothing but über-negative, ugly attack ads for both sides and people are tired of it. As in NC, I doubt they'll sway any voters from voting their traditional party ticket of choice.
For the governor's race, the Dem incumbent has a strong record and is generally well liked; the Rep candidate has struggled the entire campaign to overcome the 54% incumbent 19% challenger poll numbers. And so it goes... Richard |

Here is an article on a Colorado race I have been watching: http://news.yahoo.com/is-cory-gardne...230141864.html
It covers some interesting ground about where the future of the Republican party might be heading, it also exposes some of the values of the right that make it challenging for the center to agree with. Udalls adds are perplexing, they say things like " Women are front and center in our ( his) campaign" but fails to cover any issues or say why :confused: From my view time for professional politicians to be replaced by others that are concerned about the issues and interested in doing the peoples work. Udall has apparently been absent for most of the votes on the Armed Forces and Intelligence committees, busy I suppose. A little on Udalls world views...how the heck was he placed on those committees? http://denver.cbslocal.com/2014/09/0...oreign-policy/ |
Libertarians
Libertarians here in NC (two in my family circle) are ecstatic that they might get 7% this election.
That's their big issue. Getting more than 2%. Hagan will win reelection by far less votes than the Libertarian candidate got. To be fair, Tillis was the GOP-e candidate and the conservatives split their vote """again""" letting the GOP-e candidate float to the top. So now some "conservatives" are all butt hurt and are running to the Libertarian candidate. Hey, dudes, how about winning for a change!!?? |

If you want to be a conservative, vote your principles in the primaries. Hold your nose and vote party line in the general elections (that does not include Libertarian lunacies). Otherwise you're contributing to the downfall. If you disagree, you're either uneducated (probable given the lack of civics education in the modern curriculum), naive, or nihilist. In any event, doing otherwise guarantees that your vote will support the least favorable outcome.

Tillis
I'm looking forward to voting for Tillis.
How often do you get a chance to vote for a motherless son of Satan who rips puppies and kittens apart with his teeth, who drags old people out of their homes and pours burning water from fracturing wells down their throats as he kicks them into the street, burns women alive at the stake - and doing it all with a smile. See, I did learn something from the hour I watched TV tonight. |
