You ar...Another outstanding post on this topic TA. You are on a roll!<br /><br />Watched Rachel Maddow and the MSNBC gang during election night to amuse myself.<br /><br />Liberals blame their candidate. They don't believe their agenda is being rejected. Conservatives claim Brown as one of their own even though he is a moderate and stated in his victory speech that he will continue to be "independent." <br /><br />Liberals claim that if their liberal associates in Washington had just rammed through more of their liberal agenda, including health insurance, then Brown would have lost handily.. Conservatives claim that those who do not follow the GOP Platform religiously are lost in the wilderness and doomed to defeat. They are both wrong.<br /><br />It's the middle that is angry. Old Richard Nixon's "silent majority" has been fuming at home, keeping quiet, and then showed up and voted. The silent majority that wants a strong national defense, security, good jobs and opportunity. Right now they are struggling to keep their homes, pay their taxes, feed their families, hanging on to their jobs or are out of work and they can't borrow money. <br /><br />While all this is going on, the "too big to fail" philosophy of the current gang in Washington addresses none of their concerns. Foreclosures are still way up, credit card fees and minimum payments have skyrocketed. Need a new car? No credit available for most. Need to refinance your house? Tough!<br /><br />Instead of expanding their horizons, the silent majority are forced to scale back while watching national, state and local governments go on irresponsible spending sprees.<br /><br />Add the liberals and conservatives to the unhappiness mix, and you have the bluest of blue states going 52-47! But the real credit goes to the folks in the middle, the moderates, the silent majority who are independents, or moderates in their political parties. Without them, Brown would have handily lost.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5194608964536238003.post-66610698886900393622010-01-21T05:37:40.974-06:002010-01-21T05:37:40.974-06:00Your post today needs to be stated and understood ...Your post today needs to be stated and understood by every single Independent and Republican voter over and over until the message sinks in. TA, we are at a very important crossroads and some of us KNOW IT. Mark Kirk is our side's best hope for winning in November, but it all begins on February 2. We can't get to the General unless Mark Kirk gets a WIN in less than 2 weeks. What you've stated today in this direct, to the point, outstanding post: put our labels aside, WIN this Primary and then circle the proverbial wagon and make history next November 2. This isn't about ganging up on the far right within our party, it's about WINNING this Seat and helping return the Senate to a body of power with more balance and integrity. That's the goal, folks, and I hope that we can stop this truly dangerous path we're on right now. What happened in MA on Tuesday night showed the power of the people, the 28% of registered Democrats who said enough of what this administration is doing. The election showed the absolute power of the Independent voter who echoed the same message of ENOUGH of the out of control Congress. Can we replicate that spectacular victory in IL? You KNOW we can.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
