Truckers' Trucking Forum/Message Board - The Premiere Truck Driver Forum

Politics Do Not Pass/Pass With Care. Today's truckers are far more educated and cognizant of the issues regarding politics due to the sharp increase in talk radio, and various trucking news media sources. Talk politics. Do truckers like politicians?

I thought that the republicans were going to take back congress

Last night the democratic party picked up two more seats in congress. One in a very red distict here in upstate NY. I was watching this race because that crazy ##### Palin and all of the nutcase teabaggers supported the third part candidate because the republican incumbant wasn't conservative enough. Well congerats my little nutcase buddies you guys helped us gain another seat. Great job!! Keep up the good work. Oh and I also want to mention this seat hasn't been held by a democrat in over 100 years. Thanks again.

ALBANY, N.Y. — Democrat Bill Owens has captured the special election for a New York congressional seat that became a fight over the identity of the Republican Party.
Owens defeated Conservative Doug Hoffman and Republican Dierdre Scozzafava (skoh-zuh-FAH'-vuh) in the heavily Republican 23rd congressional District in rural northern New York. Scozzafava abruptly withdrew Saturday and supported Owens.
Hoffman has conceded the race.
With 88 percent of the precincts reporting, Owens had 49 percent of the vote to 46 percent for Hoffman. Scozzafava had 6 percent.
The race has been getting national attention, with some calling it a referendum on President Barack Obama and others saying it could help Republicans focus their message to attract more people to the party.

Kind of hard to take back Congress when it isn't even an congressional election year. DUH! Picked up 2 of your governorships though. And that is where the real power is. You know now we get to realign all those districts to make it easier in 2010. Gerrymandering works both ways. And Hoffman was a last minute deal and almost pulled it off. Too bad he didn't even live in the district. That was all they had to attack him. Sent RNC valuable message. We ain't putting up with any more wimp, left leaning semi Dim/commie candidates. Your boy Obambi lied again. Said he didn't watch returns. lol And I bet you believe him about the economy and debt too. Your gal Stretch My Face Some More Pelosi is peddling the same sheat that you are. She's glad they "won" last night. Let's see what gets passed now.

Scuzzyfailure is anything but a Republican. Not even a good RINO.
You notice after she got ###-whooped by a TRUE Conservative, she told her supporters to get behind the LEFTIST.

I hope Owens enjoys his ten months in office.

And the Republican was not the "incumbant" nor a Republican.

Now watch Scuzzyfava defect to the left side of the Democrat party, if they will have such as scumbag, Oh that's right!, it's a requirement



It matters not about congress as this is not a congressional year, what does matter, in reviewing results of a solidly blue state as PA has been for years, it appears that all state judgeships, and local offices, and school boards turned RED on Tuesday!


Beware!!!! The giant is waking up!

How the ballot appeared to the voters in NY-23, because Owens represented two parties, and dropped-out Dede too – confusing to say the least:
1. Democratic – William L. Owens
2. Republican – Dede Scozzafava
3. Independence – Dede Scozzafava
4. Conservative – Douglas L. Hoffman
5. Working Families – William L. Owens

If Palin takes a hit for supporting Hoffman (from 3000 miles away), what does Barry get for Virginia and New Jersey?

That he visited repeatedly.

Nuclear Armageddon??
