GOP Uses Obama to Recruit House Candidates

Obama Losing His Glitter??
When President Obama took office, he probably had greater support for his personal success than any president since at least John Kennedy. He appeared new, refreshing and smart. That was then, this is now.
In the course of just under six months, this administration has gone from one of GREAT PROMISE, to one of astonishing disbelief!! Could Rev Wright be correct? Could Obama be just ‘another politician from Chicago’?
The 'sweetheart deal' with The Washington Post has not engendered trust and confidence in the White House. That was VERY DISAPPOINTING!
Obamanomics...Support Waning?
If Obamanomics are so great, why are so many other countries looking for an alternative to the US dollar as a standard?

GOP = "Group of Phoney's"
As a proud registered gay Republican for the last 27 years, I find the state of the party deplorable with the almost daily news items of infidelity, misconduct or some other scandal. We seemed o have to have lost any leaders with integrity, credibility, morals, or fresh ideas on how to lead this country out of the deep problems we face. We seemed to have abandoned the core values for which the party once proudly stood for; less taxes, less government, less intrusion into peoples lives. Today we have people on the extremes of the party using their bully pulpits to espouse their pandering "holier than thou" views yet end up being exposed for real impostors when their own personal and moral failings are exposed.
Gone are the true leaders of the GOP; Lincoln, Roosevelt, Reagan, who whether you agreed with them on every issue or not you at least knew what they stood for and believed was right. It's time for those of us still calling ourselves registered Republicans; gay or straight, man or woman, of every race, religion, or social economic status to demand more of our current leaders in office to stand for something more than just opposing the Democrats but to come up with fresh ideas and principles to move our country forward. We need to look to younger people in the party to step up and use their voices to champion what is right for America and drown out the voices on the extremes. Maybe then the GOP will be again taken seriously as a political party that represents all Americans. Happy 4th of July and may God bless these United States.
Vote Romney-Palin 2012 for economic-ideological superiority
In 2012 we must vote for Governor Mitt Romney to become our President and Governor Sarah Palin to become our Vice President starting on January 20, 2013 , First Governor Mitt Romney is economically smarter than Barak Obama. Secondly Governors Mitt Romney and Sarah Palin are of the superior rightwing conservative philosophy that they are pro God and Christianity, pro life, pro marriage; pro guns-second amendment, pro low taxes, pro low government spending; pro small government, pro unintrusive government, pro traditional and Judeo Christian values; pro Bible reading and prayer in our public schools, pro Christians schools and private education , pro private and free enterprise; pro military spending, anti arms agreements with Russia, pro creation; pro nuclear, pro conservative supreme court judges, pro American sovereignty; pro capitalism, anti communist, anti socialist; conservative on immigration, and pro constitution
RE: "Angry Candidates"
No reason to assume BHO will 'do fine' in the midterms if he could pass his health care plan. If prices & waiting times skyrocket due to implementation of plan and if the impact devestates the private insurance sector impacting options for patients and resulting in mass layoffs, midterms could and should be extremely damaging to Democrats.
But I do agree little chance of current crop of GOPers rising and far greater chance of Democrats falling. 1994 seemed to be lightning in a bottle.
"Angry Candidates"
are the best kind to beat, especially if they find themselves running against profound progress---actually in motion.
If Obama gets health care passed with a public option this year, he'll do fine in the mid-terms. If he doesn't, he won't. Audacity has to win the big one, because liberals will be too ticked off to turn out in 2010 if a 60-Dem Senate cannot get off its pompous a$$ and do anything.
There is no worry about "Republicans rising". The worry is about "Democrats falling" if they prove themselves to have no guts and no spine.
