dissatisfaction with politicians is all bunk

[acorn54]

the silent majority methinks is satisfied with the incumbents, otherwise they would not get re-elected at a 90 percent rate.
there was an article that talked about this that was titled "throw the bums out,but not our bum". that just about says it all.

Yes sir, agreed.

If the silent majority is satisfied with the incumbents:
1. They are ignorant
2. They don't think
3. They feel powerless
4. They hold their noses and vote for the least worst choice
5. All of the above.

The moderates who really weren't are going to get killed in the mid terms elections barring some miraculous economic recovery.


Maybe should fast forward to the age of the internet-where incumbents don't get re elected 90% of the time.

where perpetual voter apathy has been replaced by vociferous interest.

the democratic party going into the next presidential election will be your fearless leader and the furthest left moonbats on earth.

the response will be the incumbent always loses in the mid terms,
just like they blown off every adverse result since.

sure the communists in NJ elect a fascist like republican dictator as governor but nobody cares abt politics and that certainly was no referendum on the current administration.

as you can see from above website of past elections, the internet has had no effect of incumbent rates of re-election

Widespread internet adoption since '00 seems to have had an effect on senate rates or is the lower avg just visible to non moonbats?

as if the only elections in the country are to congress.


utter idiot is a compliment.

[Foolish Pleasure]

CAn we bet on it? Want over 90% next NOV?

of course not- so no way for usual liberal social scientists to eat their donkey like output and that results in never ending donkey like output.

like trying to bet a pollster -it is impossible- same idiot could inaccuratley predict every event in his entire life-guess what? He still being paid to be a pollster-it is a wonderful system you idiots have come up with.

Liberal social science-we predict the future but since we not financial stake holders nor real scientists- the idea of accuracy is hilarious.
