Uh..yeah and in 2010, Dems lost seats in both House and Senate.

And reps are running every couple years and much more accountable than senators or the prez to the people.

Again - you're confused...and this is basic.





Agreed on the polls....but the message is often mixed.  People overwhelmingly want less spending.  When pressed to identify a program...they can't.  When pressed to define 'rich' and 'high income' and the like...they often do so with such mixed results there's no one cut-off (at least not that I've seen).

You're in the Bay area.  Is someone who lives and works downtown making 250K rich?  Are they not paying their fair share?



fine

you say I'm confused and I say you're delusional

Obama and the Dems have a mandate to raise taxes

and guess what - they just did it so there's your proof

Mandate is as Mandate does

btw - the new limit is 400k for individuals and 450k for adults

Yeah...whatever the fuck that means.  Still haven't shown how Republicans got 'stomped' lol.


And you do understand that the 400/450 was the Bush stuff?

There's still 3.8% on investment income for 200/250.

check in with Karl Rove and he can explain it to you

lost every swing state except 1 (can't recall which one)

lost virtually every key Senate race

lost ground in the House and Senate and of course lost the race for the White House

Dems has something like 23 seats up from grabs in the Senate and Repubs had 10 (going from memory here)

The best of my recollection (you can go find the specific info) Dems lost 1 of the 23 and Repubs lost 3 of their 10

Dems also gained seats in the House
