Specter changed parties for one reason and one reason only. TO GET RE-ELECTED. He became a republican when it was convenient in order to get elected and now he is changing again. A good poster boy for term limits on both sides of the aisle.If the republican party is dead why are all the liberals still trying to change us???

This country is barely a TWO-party system and it needs to having multiple choices during elections and a spectrum of views represented. It is NOT a good thing that the Republican Party is so weakened.

Weakened? Maybe in your neck of the woods but was it strong there a year ago? The talk here is about leaving the United States. Not one democrat holds a seat in any locally elected position. This state went with McCain. Read this very forum on today's postings at what happened in Oklahoma. Look at other states declaring the same thing.

You are completely out of touch with what's happening if you think the Republican Party is weakening. For Pete's sakes Democrats are wanting to have a Tea Party too. Pull your head out of the sand. Read the forum instead of writing. Read the paper. Turn on the television.

You wouldn't know that by the joy that some Liberals seem to get from getting 52.7% of the vote. They seem pretty happy with having the power to do as Obama wishes, be it good or bad for the country.

I'm pretty sure if an election were held today, Obama would not be president.

It does not matter which poll you choose to look at, he has lost majority support.

Even the Democrats in congress are realizing that they need to backoff, if they are to maintain a house majority in 2010.

Lately, they seem to be the party of "NO", when Obama is asking for certain items.

It won't be liberals that save the US, from the road it is on. It will be those that believe in less government control and personal freedom.

You better hope there are enough of them left.

Amazing the tunnel vision you all have.

PA, Maine, DC, California, Oregon, Washington, Virginia, MD, NY, NJ, Vermont, NH, Mass to name a few are speaking and they're not agreeing with you whatsoever.

OK and some parts of Texas and parts of the South. Yeah? And how will that win national elections and why are the numbers in the Senate and House so lopsidedly Democrat if what you say is true.

Kool Aid drinker :!: :roll: :roll: :roll:

Reader, how many eligible voters in this country voted for Obama?

"Sen. Arlen Specter's breed of fiscally conservative, socially progressive lawmakers is on decline in Northeast."

The man voted for the porkulus bill, for cripes sake. He's NOT fiscal conservative.

That must be the reason 200,000 Republicans switched parties in Pennsylvania last year- eh -- and that they are now considered by the pollsters as a strong Blue state anymore.... :???: :wink: :p :lol:

They switched because they believed the lies they were sold.

OT, they were sold on a personality, not policy.

The politically uneducated voter may have been gullible, but they are not stupid.

I trust the fact that they will see what they voted for and what they got, are different.

When they realize that, they are not going to vote for more of it. They will give someone else the benefit of the doubt.

Show me any evidence that approval for his policies is growing!

The only ones that are going to be judged by the effects of Obama's policies at present are going to be Democrats.

Hold me to this. Democrats will lose seats in 2010, Republicans and Independents will gain.

You may think that everything is Bush's fault, but it's the Democrats that have total control to change things for the better, and they are failing miserably. They are definitely not exceeding people's expectations!

The majority of voters will hold them accountable, if only to reduce the control they have with a liberal President and a liberal congress majority.

our county is the last republican county in our state..fairly rural still is the reason, and we don't have a city.

but one fact many keep forgetting is that the cities populations outweigh the states so no matter how "republican" most of the state appears the city wins in numbers.. and we have our fair share of the cities in the northeast...

add that in with changing demographics and the trend isn't so much as "switching" parties but gains in voters moving in to the once republican dominated strongholds..

there is another trend that emerged in the last eight years as well that is catching on and that is switching parties to have a vote in the primaries,, by voting for the most conservative democrat in the primaries a conservative republican in a liberal controlled state can have more voter impact..

the rational is that few voters vote the primaries, and you get a conservative democrat running against a moderate republican , and you can still vote republican in the general.. knowing the democrat is more then likely going to win anyways.. but at least they would be a bit more conservative.

so it is not as much about republicans declining as them understanding the complexities of their state and at least trying to stop the far left candidates before they get a chance...

We'll see what happens in the next election. We should be at double digit inflation by then with the printing presses going full swing. There won't be much big business willing to take risks.

Ya'll don't be too surpised.
