		<description>Most third party candidates are lucky to get 2% of the vote. Palin endorses an unknown one with next to no name recognition and money and he gets 45% of the vote. 

That&#039;s power.</description>

		<description>&quot;If Hoffman would lose...many would interpret it as a sure sign that Palin’s power, popularity and influence are dramatically overestimated.&quot;

That&#039;s right. Which is a shame, because I&#039;d like her looming within the GOP for a long time to come.</description>

		<description>This is classic.  When you point a finger at the Democrats you get a mock, half truths, steeped in deception lying distorion of anything factual in reply.

They do not address the one simple fact.  Democrats always say they are going to cure poverty....That its just the GOP standing in the way.

Well here you go.....3 houses all controlled by the Democrats.  They have veto proof majorities.  They can do what they want.

what do they do....CAP and TAX which is redistribution of wealth to poor countries.

National health care in which they are going to give away free health care to the poor.  To pay for it they are going to raise taxes and tax the middle class who work and have these health care plans that are targets of the Democrats.

Legalize millions of more poor illegals who will vote democratic because they love all the freebies the democrats give away.

In the end what happens to the poor?

THEY ARE STILL POOR....they have just been given a FIX...their drug....from their DRUG DEALERS....the DEMOCRATS.

As the guy above can rant and rave and blame EVERYTHING on those EVIL PUBLICANS but the fact remains the DEMOCRATS have a veto proof majority......and they dont fix poverty.....they make the poor EVEN MORE DEPENDENT upon the Democrats for their FIX.

NO...you can point fingers all day at the GOP but this ones on you...the democrats...you are all liars, deceivers and distorters....whose agenda is simple...increase poverty with cap and trade, national health care and illegal immigration reform.  Continue the flood of illegals into this nation so that the rolls of the democrats continue to swell and then blame all the woes of the country on the GOP.

MY finger is pointing directly at the Democrats today.....You people are being exposed and after 4-8 years of Democratic radical progressive agenda the democratic party will cease to exist....because 60-70 percent of the Democrats themselves dont buy into this radical agenda being forced on them by the progressive movement in their own party.</description>

		<description>*Federal taxes are actually lower, not higher.*

You must be refering to the CEO&#039;s that had their pay cut more that 50%. 

Dude, if your going to tax the rich, you can&#039;t severely cut their income and expect to be getting the same revenue.

And I got to say, this is a typical Dem position.</description>

		<description>Anything coherent always draws out the raving nutburgers, Lisa.

Yeah, the vitriolic demonization of Fox is a sure sign, and even more so is the histrtionic demonization of Rasmussen, which has been a consistent &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.fordham.edu/images/academics/graduate_schools/gsas/elections_and_campaign_/poll%20accuracy%20in%20the%202008%20presidential%20election.pdf&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;leader in polling accuracy&lt;/a&gt;. But hey, Scott Rasmussen was briefly a paid consultant to the 2004 Bush campaign, so his polls CAN&#039;T be correct, right? :-D</description>

		<description>@Repulican Platform--

Do you work for Obama?  You can substitube Obama/Dems in any of the statements and they work as well.  #30--You ever hear of George Soros and all of his $$s--he&#039;s the reason why Obama is President.  

Also, you can rant about Fox but you may want to check the facts regarding Rasmussen polls.  Going back to the 2000 election, Rasmussen has been right on target, not only on national elections but local as well.  

Get a clue buddy--there&#039;s no difference between Dems and Repubs.</description>

		<description>THIRTY POINT REPUBLICAN AND JOE LIEBERMAN PLATFORM

1 - Destroy hope in America by being anti-everything Obama which equals anti-middle class.

2 - Give tax breaks to the rich

3 - Talk conservative when spending money on Main Street, but quite liberal when spending money for corporate CEOs and their lobbyists buddies.

4 - Pass laws as favors for campaign donations even if it is not good for middle class America

5 - Use scare tactics instead of facts to influence Americans (i.e. Bush and Iraq war - death panels, etc).

6 - Complain when Obama/Dems does something for middle class, but have no plans or solutions of their own unless it is to help corporate America and their Lobbyists cronies.

7 - Party of YES for big corporations and lobbyists.

8 - Party of NO for hard working middle class Americans

9 - Distorts the truth and use gimmicks (McCain’s campaign, birthers, death panels, etc)

10 - Relies on Fox and bogus Rasmussen Polls for their facts while ignoring all other opposing polls

11 - Republicans love the color of green for money more than red, white and blue. They prove it time after time by passing laws that favor the rich who fuels their campaigns.

12 - Pretends or distorts the truth as if they are doing good for middle class while passing laws that help the rich and corporate America

13 - Obstructionists for everything that is best for Main St v.s. Corporate America.

14 - Uses polls and studies from self-serving corporations (i.e insurance company poll and study) as facts

15 - While Insurance CEOs give themselves million dollar salaries and spends millions daily to influence politicians (lobbyists) with premiums dollars from denying coverage, Hatch has the gull to discuss their profit percentage (see #3 above).

16. Don’t have the guts to stand up to the crazies like Beck and Limbaugh

17. At the 11th hour talks about preserving Medicare while at the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th hour they opposed all regulation to help seniors with health care

18. Everything they say to oppose health care is true about insurance companies - death panels, rationing, etc are all done by insurance companies now

19. Speaks in generalities and sound bites and leaves out the truth. For example taxes. They talk as if Obama will raise taxes on all Americans trying to influence middle class, while leaving out that Obama has said repeatedly he will only raise it on those who make $250,000 or more (roll back to Clinton years) - see #2 and #3 above.

20 - Uses Fox news and conservative talk radio to spread their propaganda.

21 - After banks, insurance industry, wall street, etc destroyed our economy, they want to maintain the status quo and not regulate the financial industry to satisfy the financial lobbyists and get more campaign donations to defeat the Democrats. In other words, the hell with Main Street – see #2 and 3 above.

22 - Not sure, but perception is they don’t care much for minorities -- blacks, hispanics, women

23 - Believes in Bush trickle down theory - see #2 above. While it only trickles to greedy corporate pockets or politicians campaign funds.

24. - Will beat Dems in campaign donations because they will get huge donations from corporate America to stop the dems from passing laws that gives corporations unfair advantage to milk the middle class by stealing their dollars and denying services to middle class Americans after paying years for those services. (Bush economy).

25. Republican’s love using buzz words. For example as soon as Obama tries to pass laws to prevent unfair practices by corporate America, the Right screams “free market”. Yet when laws are passed by the Republicans to give corporations and wall street market advantage we never hear them scream “let the free market work”. Republicans should be the party of hypocrites.

26. Good at spending our tax dollars and killing our young men and women in unnecessary wars

27. Republicans seem to believe it is ok that our tax dollars pay for their health care but not middle class health care.

28. Republicans like to reference the evils of “big government” and the Republicans will make sure they pass laws, block useful legislation for middle class and create as much red tape as possible to prove their point.

29. Republicans are great at using trivia (lets pick on what the first lady is wearing, or where the President goes to dinner, vacation, campaigning for winter Olympics, etc) to try to distract Americans from the real issues

30. If you have a few million dollars, you can buy a Republican. For a bargain price, you can get a conservative democrat a little cheaper. Any conservative movement is anti-middle class even though they disguise every policy/law as if it is for middle class America. If you believe a Republican rhetoric, I have a bridge to nowhere to sale you.</description>

		<description>Scozzafava&#039;s big sin is being pro-choice and pro-gay-rights. She is otherwise a fairly unremarkable conservative-leaning NY Republican. Needless to say, her not being a &lt;i&gt;social&lt;/i&gt; conservative is what set the Hoffman crowd free. HERETIC! BURN THE WITCH!

&lt;i&gt;*Federal taxes are actually lower, not higher.*&lt;/i&gt;

Actually tax RATES are lower, but actual tax collections are demonstrably higher. Hmmm. You&#039;d almost think that simplifying tax structures increased economic growth by reducing inefficient disincentives or something.

RE: Poverty &amp; red/blue states -- This is one of those partisan talking points that doesn&#039;t stand up to a closer look. It is based on using the federal poverty guidelines as the standard, while ignoring the fact that cost-of-living tends to be higher in blue states and lower in red states. A family making $50K (roughly US median family income) in New York City or San Francisco or Chicago or WashDC or Boston is struggling hard to make ends meet. A family making $50K in San Antonio or Oklahoma City or Memphis or Jacksonville is doing pretty well.</description>
