Mayor Daley will not run again for Mayor of Chicago. If there were a viable Republican Party in Chicago, this might actually be interesting. As-is, don't expect Sister Sarah to come to town pimping some 3rd tier teabagger's "common sense freedom solutions" anytime soon.

Now that is good news for the country.

Where are all the readers of tea leafs that said he was going to keep the bush tax cuts?
They were so adamant about that. I wonder what their crystal ball says now?
Tarot cards next ,maybe?
Nostradamus?
I've heard say that the polls are indicating a GOp sweep.
I've heard say the polls are almost a dead heat. Within the +4-4. 43 Dem,45 GOper.
This is far from over. The GOp needs 40 seats in the house,minimum to gain the majority.
I forget how many in the Senate. 10? 11?
That's why all the voter fraud(again).
I'm still predicting the GOp will get 12 seats in the house. Maybe less. But I'm sticking with 12.
3 seats in the Senate.
This is far from over.
And the crazy antics coming from the right, torching mosques, anti muslim hatred, homophobia, sexism, obstructionism,you know, their usual MO. Will backfire on them.
While many are not happy with Obama, when they see how the GOp are acting, they'll vote against the GOp. I'm referring to the indies and moderates. The far right is beyond any hope.
Their lost. And I say good riddance.
What is your conceptual, continuity?
I can see it now:
'Well, so what. He didn't have to do anything. He should have raised their tax rates to 99%! What a sell out! I'm voting Green in the next election!'
Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust.
can do it, then maybe in time he can actually hike the wealthy's taxes. But digging in his heels now is a great start.

They've been busy little buggers lately.
We'll lose some seats. Of that I'm fairly certain. Just not as many as they need.
Plus, they'll lose a few seats as well.
This is a big election. A lot of seats are up for grabs. From both parties.
I think where people are making a mistake is, they're forgetting the GOp will lose some seats as well. We can thank the media for that. I have yet to see them say one word about the GOp losing any seats.
The teabaggers are completely insane. I wonder if they're still pissed off because they couldn't bring their signs to beckapaloosa. Beck was smart about that one. He knew what they would bring.
If they brought those signs and got on the screen with them, it would be over for them.
They haven't changed. Their tactic did. But they haven't changed one bit.
All this bruhaha over the building in NY. That just fueled their hate. Now that crazy fool preacher,wanting to burn Quran's. More fuel,more hate.
This will be their undoing.
On this Green party thing. It's a shame really. The Green party had some decent folks in it.
I suppose the decent folks in the Green party can thank the GOp for their demise now.
It's obvious that the GOp are the ones who screwed them royally. And who have been reaming them for a long while now.
What is your conceptual, continuity?
If the good folks at CNN grew a pair and told the truth, and dropped the false equivalence mantra...

With scientific data piling up showing that the world has reached its hottest-ever point in recorded history, global-warming skeptics are facing a high-profile defection from their ranks. Bjorn Lomborg, author of the influential tract "The Skeptical Environmentalist," has reversed course on the urgency of global warming, and is now calling for action on "a challenge humanity must confront."

Thanks for the link to fake Democratic concern trolls at daily kos! wow.!
I'm quite sure we have our share of republican backed concern trolls here at C&L.
It's the only thing that can explain their nonsense. Scum of the earth.
Who in their right mind would not be sure to vote this election, even if president Obama has had a hard time getting past republican obstruction.
If anyone comes here to discourage us again we need to set the troll straight.
