Obama seems to have his Roots in the New Deal and Reconstruction. What nation has taxed or hyper-inflated itself into prosperity? Where are those 'workers' paradises' that were so attractive that fences, walls, and minefields had to be erected to keep out those refugees from capitalism and free markets?

Even though everyone can see that the only ideas you have left are those that haven't worked so far. Good luck with that. Right — cheering on economic failure while pretending to “good ideas”.

Thus a Reid/Pelosi Tag team is going to steamroll good ideas and flood our govt with pork and big govt. With that in mind, I stand by my point.

If that worked, KHN (or Dennis Spivak) would be our representative today." We are an incumbent driven state, so there are few opportunities to cite. Even when we have open seats it's an incumbent rotation. Having said that, Dennis Spivak is a perfect example of that, he did much better than expected. Furthermore I would contend that Tom Wagner had a scare solely based on a Republican Backlash. “Please cite the Delaware race any candidate has ever won by running against the opponent’s national party.

And we will enjoy every moment of it.
