Short and bitter

33. you might want to look at what the voters did in the 1980s

the VOTERS walked away from liberal policies, and the politicians followed. After Mondale and Dukakis lost almost all 50 states by being liberals, after Republicans took control of the Senate and made huge gains in the House.

But what does tying the albatross of Obama to your neck have to do with "liberal policies" anyway?

It's like some people are looking for reasons, any reasons, to be critical of the Democratic Party. Like spreading the message "The Democratic Party sucks" is gonna help anything.

Especially when they apparently suck for not following a stupid strategy.

In states where Obama took 40% of the vote it's an easy campaign message for Republicans to say "A vote for candidate X is a vote for Obama". Candidate X is only gonna make that easier if they go around, like the OP apparently wants them to, saying "I luuuurve Obama".

But hey, it's a darned shame that those spineless jerks we have running on the Democratic ticket won't shoot themselves in the foot, isn't it?

BTW, I sure hope the "spineless jerk" wins in Kentucky. That's why I am helping by going on the internet and calling her a spineless jerk.
