what is really amazing is how many people that do not vote have an opinion on what is wrong with this great country

if you don't vote - STFU please!
Until recently, Snyder & Allen have made a lot of really bad decisions - nobody with any sense believes this franchise will get better under their guidance
Snyder's W/L record = 45% (80-96) - Snyder/Allen = 41% (59-84-1)

Ever notice that is how it always ends up when you ask someone who is complaining if they voted most of the time they say no they didnt. Then they add salt to the wound and say well my vote wouldnt count anyways so that is why I didnt vote or my favorite I just dont care about politics....Good stuff....LOL

I became a US citizen in 1992 and when someone tells me that they don't vote because they don't think their vote counts I explain that it really does 'count' because if you don't vote you cannot complain about anything to do with how badly this country is being run

If you don't vote, your opinions don't count

Excellent! Classic sour grapes! The fox rationalizes not being able to reach the grapes by saying 'Oh, you aren't even ripe yet! I don't need any sour grapes.'



BTW - It's 75%-25% that republicans take control of the senate.

I'm looking forward to the Republicans controlling both the House and the Senate

HOWEVER - I'm concerned that they will be just like the liberal politicians and not do enough to make things work in DC

The USA is REALLY pissed off - if the conservatives don't work harder to make things happen they have ZERO chance in 2016

We Conservatives need someone to step up and be a leader so we can rally behind them and not have the same thing we had in 2012 where the RINOS had there guy and we had 4 or 5 fighting against each other and killed our chances for a Conservative nominee. I hope the GOP take the Senate keep the House and send 30 bills a week to Obama to sign or veto and then we will see who is the party of no is.

We don't really need to wait to find out who the party of "no" is. Repubs have made it pretty clear that's their territory already.

The voters have made it very clear that this election was about letting the politicians know that they need to get things done

AND ... the voters sent a clear message to Obama - we gave you a chance and then we gave you another ... enough with that BS


it's going to be fun watching Harry Reid and the President continue to make fools of themselves with no congress or senate support

I hope that Boehner and McConnell listen to the Tea Party/Conservative members of Congress, if they dont listen this will get really ugly really quick.
When the Gillespie race wasnt called first thing after the polls closed I knew it was going to be a good night.

Well, America, you've put yourself in the hand basket. Welcome to hell. I guess idiotic filibusters, government shutdowns and further restriction of civil rights is just what the Dr. ordered.

Our only hope is that the obvious fractures in the Grand(parents) Old Party can keep them as in-fighting as they have been since the muslim came into office.

2016 can't get here fast enough.

over 75% of the population in this country are making under $50,000 and many of them helped put Obama into office, not once but twice

they do not see any chance of the economy improving or their paycheck growing with the democrats in control

Obama promised change we could believe in and did not change anything

the country has made it clear that they will not tolerate politicians not doing anything

the Republicans now need to deliver and the Democrats now know what happens when you don't do what you promised

Time for the Republicans to put up or shut up and I hope they remember that everything they do going forward will affect the 2016 election and who the nominee for President is.
