So, Obama today started using the word “compromise.”
Amazing, isn’t it? This guy, who was supposed to be “a uniter” only finds the word compromise in his vocabulary when he loses his majority.
Eff that.
Iowans Hammer Judicial Activism
This is some of the best news out of the election – from CNN:
Voters in Iowa chose to remove three high court justices who helped make Iowa the first Midwestern state to permit same-sex marriage.
The vote marks the first time a member of the Iowa Supreme Court has been rejected by the voters under the current system that began in 1962…
Whether you favor of oppose same-sex marriage, if you are an American you must insist that judges not impose this novelty upon the American people. Something as large as this with so much public passion on both sides requires a democratic resolution – only if the people want it should it be done.
Additionally, this is yet another shot across the bow of the gay rights activists – keep pursuing your goals in the courts and you will eventually provoke an amendment to the United States constitution permanently defining marriage as between one man and one woman. The people have had quite enough of judges making laws – law-making is for the people, or their elected representatives, period.
Racist TEA Party Elects Blacks, Latinos; Liberals Confused
So much for that liberal narrative:
…In New Mexico, Susana Martinez was elected as the nation’s first female Hispanic governor. Nikki Haley, whose parents were born in India, will be the first woman governor in South Carolina, and Brian Sandoval became Nevada’s first Hispanic governor.
Insurance company owner Tim Scott will be the first black Republican congressman from South Carolina since Reconstruction, after easily winning in his conservative district. Scott, a 45-year-old state representative, earned a primary victory over the son of the one-time segregationist U.S. Sen. Strom Thurmond.
In Florida, veteran Allen West ousted a two-term Democrat to a House seat. He is the first black Republican elected to Congress from Florida since a former slave served two terms in the 1870s…
There will be more of this in the future – conservatism is on the march and minorities are naturally conservative as they have (a) learned how hideous big government is at first hand and (b) if they have any spirit at all they’ll go for free markets and free people as the best means to thrive in the United States.
In the end, of course, the conflict is not between black or white or what have you. Liberals want it to be that because they want to use racial hatred as a means of dividing and conquering the people – but the real battle is between liberty and slavery. Do you wish to be free? If you answer, “yes”, then you’ll eventually go towards conservatism. Those who want someone to look after them (or who wish to look after others, whether they like it or not) will go liberal.
For too long the only leaders minorities have had to look towards in elective office have been nothing more than tools of a rich, elite liberal power structure. Now, more and more they’ll be able to find independent Americans who share their background and have made it by hard work and self-reliance. That will spell the doom for liberal dominance of minority voters – and that is what we, on the right, must work to advance with all our might.
Hey, Democrats: Welcome to Oversight
The end of one-party rule means a lot of changes:
Republicans are likely to urge the Obama administration not to shred documents as they transition to the House majority.
Before the election, GOP officials on Capitol Hill privately discussed the issue but refrained from publicly tackling it, not wanting to assume what would happen on Election Day. Now that Republicans will control the House, the shredding matter will move front and center…
No more just doing whatever you want – we’re watching you.
The Second American Revolution
It happened last night, though some of our liberals seem to be latching on to Reid’s win as some sort of “victory”. It certainly is disappointing that this hopelessly corrupt and mindlessly Statist Democrat managed to win, but he’s actually a liability for the Democrats who have an even rougher task in 2012, even supposing the economy gets better and Obama gets re-elected. Right now, the Democrats have lost the House, lost the governorships, lost the State legislatures and have retained Harry Reid and a weak, unworkable majority in the Senate. A majority which merely ensures the Democrats remain responsible for everything which goes wrong, but which can’t advance an election-winning agenda.
Our task has now become more difficult – working to rescue America while also working to ensure Obama’s defeat in 2012. That is something we must not lose sight of. No matter what sort of triangulation Obama may try, we must eject him from the White House. He has proven himself not just incompetent, but divisive…America is weaker because he is President and putting him in for a second term is just too risky.
This will not be easy. Our economy is in shambles; our government is bankrupt. We have to balance the budget, cut taxes, restore productivity and do this all in a world becoming daily more dangerous. And we’ll have to do it while Democrats work for only one purpose – to return themselves to power so they can resume looting our nation for their personal benefit.
The war is not won – and, in fact, the biggest battle starts today. Get ready for it.
A Careful Analysis of the Election Results
We get Allen West, Nikki Haley and Rand Paul; Dems get Harry Reid, Jerry Brown and Barbara Boxer. We win.

Calling the Races:
They’re starting to call the races – Rand Paul wins in Kentucky. We’ll see how this goes. Hold on to your hats!
Marco Rubio wins!
Rumor Mill: Reid doing well. Could be – but I’m still counting on Sharron Angle. With 56% disapproval, I just can’t see my fellow Nevadans falling for it.
Ayotte (R) wins in New Hampshire.
DeMint re-elected.
Blumenthal holds Connecticut for Democrats. I guess in CT brazen lies are acceptable. And O’Donnell will come up short.
Exit polls supposedly say 50 seat House and 7 seat Senate GOP gain…I think that is the floor, not the ceiling.
Roy Blunt (R) wins in Missouri.
Drudge is reporting record turn out in Washington – Go Dino!
Toomey/Sestak too close to call.
Illinois (Barry’s old seat) too close to call.
In the House, it is shaping up to be a bad night for the Dems.
Alan Grayson goes down in Florida – that, in and of itself, makes this a great night for the United States of America.
I FEEL HAPPY!!!!!
Boozman wins in Arkansas Senate race.
Toomey wins in PA! (oops, not yet: but he’s surging late)
Synder (R) wins MI governorship; Perry crushes White in TX; Wisconsin too close to call.
Big turn out reported in Carson City – that is Angle Country.
Report on Twitter: NBC says GOP will win the House. We’ll wait before we pop the corks.
Rand Paul: Deliberate this – why do we have to balance our budgets but the government doesn’t?
Frank wins – stupid Massachusettsans!
Rubio: We make a grave mistake if we think this is an endorsement of the GOP…this race is about the future of this country.
Allen West leading in Florida.
GOP wins PA Governorship.
In MI, Congressman-for-life Dingell slightly behind…
Bye, bye Feingold in WI – and hello Governor Haley in SC!
Polling glitch in Clark County may delay Nevada results…
Brown wins in CA – California is DOOMED!!!
Stupid, STUPID, STUPID!!!! Californians. For goodness sake, the State is bankrupt and they just elected people who’s only plan is to bankrupt it some more. No bailouts for CA – not a dime of Federal money for them when the poop hits the fan.
Until a few minutes ago, at least, they were still lined up to vote in Elko – that is Double Plus Wow Angle Country…
NV-2 CD stays GOP; GOP doing well in some State legislative seats; NM Gov goes GOP – a wise Latina (ie, a Republican) wins.
CBS has Angle up 49/45 over Reid – don’t know what part of the State has reported yet. Reid needs a big day in Clark County to win.
Now Toomey wins – lets hope its an omen for what will happen in NV!
Speaker-elect Boehner: not a time for celebration; once we’ve fixed America, then we can celebrate.
Little Rory Reid loses his gubernatorial bid. Now, for Harry.
GOP wins Barry’s Senate seat in Illinois.
Harry Reid wins in Nevada – sorry, fellow Americans; he just barely made it.
As a word of explanation, we were voted the most stupid Sate in the nation, so cut us some slack…
So far, the GOP has picked up 7 State legislatures…its a wipe out of the Democrats with an annoyance in the Senate.
Caddell: This is the worst outcome imaginable for Democrats; official control of the Senate with Reid still lingering on while actual control goes to the GOP while the House is firmly in GOP hands.
Well, Heck, I Got Nothing to Write About
Its here! Election day! Woohoo!
All that is about finally being rid of Harry Reid ads – boys and girls, you simply don’t know what sort of punishment Harry has been inflicting on us over the past 6 months!
Anyways…
There really isn’t much to write about until the exit polls start leaking about noon, Eastern. As usual, treat any early exit polls with caution – the MSM is still in bed with the Democrats and they may, once again, try to depress GOP turnout by leaking stories of an alleged fizzle for the GOP. None of us can really know what will happen – and there still is that chance that Democrats will do better than expected. The only thing to do is to vote (if you haven’t already) and then just see what happens – the decision is made, we’re just waiting for the results.
Whether it winds up just a good win for the GOP or surges to a wipe out for the Democrats really doesn’t matter too much – the main thing is that this election is a resounding rejection of Obama’s liberalism. It is not – NOT – an embrace of the GOP, at least not yet. We’re a party on probation. If we do the right thing, then we’ll be handed a generation of power come 2012. If we screw it up, then we’re done for (so are Democrats, though if the GOP melts down, they might eke out a win in 2012, but that will be the last of it). Revolution is in the air – the people want genuine, fundamental change back to our old, Constitutional Republic. We deliver that we’re going to be fine – and, more important, save our country.
I’ll be out and about a bit today (do have to do that voting thing, and have several engagements ’round town in to the afternoon). I’ll be here in the evening, starting before the polls close in the east – and then we’ll carry on…though if the House goes GOP early, I might head out to one of the GOP victory parties to join the Rally to Destroy Sobriety.
Go vote; pray for our country – and let’s just see what happens.
