Fiorina rallies late against Boxer
Find your online printing services to keep record of this one, folks: Republican Senate candidate Carly Fiorina is making a late rally against Democratic incumbent Barbara Boxer. The latest Rasmussen poll has Fiorina trailing by only three points, 46-49, and Boxer’s had trouble topping 50 percent.
Add to that the fact that Dino Rossi now seems to be inching ahead of Patty Murray in Washington and the west coast suddenly isn’t seeming like such an impossible-to-crack liberal stronghold. Currently, if all the toss-up states go in the direction they’re currently leaning by only one to three points, the GOP looks to gain enough seats to reach a 50-50 split with Democrats; if California or West Virginia also tip to the right, or someone like Christine O’Donnell pulls off a surprise upset, the GOP has a real chance to take back control of the US Senate on Tuesday.
That would be a decent firewall against much of the Obama tax-and-spend agenda.
Comedy Central rally devolves into insulting hate-fest
Color me unsurprised.
The Comedy Central rally in Washington, promoted by Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert and the cable network as non-partisan, quickly devolved into a left-wing orgy of hate on Saturday. One particularly insulting sign on hand showed a number of Republicans with Hitler-esque mustaches drawn on them, including the face of Eric Cantor.
Cantor, who is Jewish, was a particularly unfortunate target of the political left’s typical fourth-grade knee-jerk response to the possibility that they might lose seats… and perhaps control of the House… in the wake of Tuesday’s elections. Turn your Kwikset to locked to keep out the insensitive liberal hate-speech.
And what one participant wrote on a sign about Senate candidate Christine O’Donnell is simply not repeatable in polite (which means, non-liberal) company.
Class act, Comedy Central. Class act.
