Death to the Incumbent!! Your guide to the 2010 primaries

Re: Death to the Incumbent!! Your guide to the 2010 primaries

This whole premise is BS. Fact is the higher earning income states pay the federal taxes, while the poorer ones don't (the fed income tax isn't indexed by your cost of living ). So basically rich successful liberals in high earning professional blue states like Mass, NY, CA, IL, MN, etc shell out the bucks with lazy poor uneducated conservatives in states like KY, WVA, AL, AK, AZ, etc don't. That's the bottom line. Places like Texas have huge military bases but they're a donor state (the only donor red state) so that blows this theory to hell. Furthermore, a state like Mass gets its share of research and military dollars, though not through massive bases. The issue is more successful, less welfare dependent people have the burden of paying for the rest of the country.

Kentucky has a very popular Democratic governor, as does West Virginia. Arizona had one for 6 years before she went off to Washington. Alabama the last 20 years has had a couple of Democrats in office as well. How do you think they got to be so popular? Mmmm, pork. So let's not pretend this is just a conservative or Republican issue.

Janet didn't bring much pork to Arizona before she high-tailed it to the Beltway. She mostly ranted at the feds for not paying for illegal immigrant costs Arizona pays all the time, a perspective she has conveniently lost somewhere between Arizona and the Beltway.

Not that I'm cheering for her (quite frankly I hate her) but Palin picks up another trophy with murkowski bowing out.

Although "thank you, daddy" is not the kind of soaring rhetoric I want to hear from politicians.

I laughed out loud, I truly did. However, as usual, the analogy is innacurate. After all, Poppy Bush didn't look around and say: "you know, I think I'll appoint my "dumb" kid president." But you and Oliver Stone deserve high marks for going (what is it) two days without mentioning Sarah Palin. It's a long journey to wellness.

I never really had strong feelings about her one way or another. Although "thank you, daddy" is not the kind of soaring rhetoric I want to hear from politicians. Too Kennedyesque IMHO.

is Patrick "I never worked a day in my life" Kennedy still in office?

BDS and PDS are real, and disturbing to witness.

The words "I think Sarah Palin will make a great president" is enough to burst blood vessels.

When I'm in a sadistic mood, sometimes I say it just to watch them tweak.

It's like when people say they believe in Intelligent Design or no money down real estate. Come to think of it, it's pretty much the same people. :p

Like this... watching them tweak. The ad hominem attack is a pretty common symptom.

You'd probably get a kick rolling a beverage cart outside an AA meeting. :D

Nah, that would be cruel.

In this case, the subject feels anxious and upset by the statement that Sarah Palin would make a good President. In order to resolve these feelings, he resorts to a feeble attempt to belittle those who may agree with the statement. In this way, he attempts to feel better about himself, trying to substitute a feeling of superiority for a feeling of dread. Unfortunately, the anxiety does not decrease, and the subject simply continues to feel anxiety, and the circling downward spiral of PDS continues.
