It is what it is folks. Obama campaigned for Deed in Virginia, Deeds lost. Obama campaigned for Corzine in New Jersey, Corzine lost. Obama did not campaign for Owens in New York 23rd, Owens won. Also New Jersey, Virginia, and the 23rd district went for Obama in 08 Presidential campaign, just saying.

I think that is very telling and I am hopeful that Congress will wake up and see we want our country back!

If that fact is not a referendum on Comrade 0bama and Socialism, then I don;t know what would be. Liberal ideology does not resonate well when the reality of it is known. Comrade 0bama is losing support and popularity as people realize what he is really about... and they are rejecting his philosophy.

Just saying, this is a good trend. Next, it'll be 0bama campaigning for 0bama and losing.

You are known by the company you keep. People are not satisfied with what is happening and showed it.

Citizens want to remain free. We are losing to many rights. Our laws are changing for what a lot of people feel are the worst. They want a better government and are speaking out. We need to continue this by holding theses elected officials responsible for implementing the laws the people want and only those. It's time to demand no more "sneaking " bills into other bills. No more programs period - we need to trim what we are offering now. I think it's the beginning of a message to Obama and a message to every elected officials - We are the people and it's time you remember who you work for.

Let's invent a new political slang term based on the fact that 0bama backed candidates lost. Let's start with the term "coattails". In politics, saying a candidate has "coattails" means that candidate's popularity and help in an election helps other candidates of the same party to get elected. So, what would be the new 0bama political slang derived from this concept? "Slippery coattails" If you hang on, you slide off to political oblivion. Spread the word, 0bama has slippery coattails.

I guess a lot of folks that voted for Obama aren't agreeing with the "change" that he is leaving them with. So, perhaps by voting against all of his candidates, they are hoping to get the Republican party back in control. We'll see what happens.

Nobody's bashing him, gewcew just stated the facts. Obama campaigned for several people, and they lost.

I guess you consider any statement of facts as bashing?
