Election Night Repeat!

I am forced to have a chuckle as I watch history repeat it's self in this election. I recall how a week before the 2004 election all of the mainstream media outlets, where having joygasms at the idea that John Kerry was going to be President, and that the Democrats where going to pick up seats in Congress. They were running story after story about how the American people where fed up with the war and the president and of course the mean old GOP! They were saying how the Republican base wasn't gonna vote and how christians where abandoning the party. Yet on election day the American people reelected George Bush and increased the Republican majority in both house of congress.
Why, because the people chose the party that doesn't want to "negotiate" with terrorists, apologize for 9/11, raise taxes, slash military spending, fund abortions for teens, and increase the size and scope of government, and cut and run form Iraq. Of course this baffled the mainstream media, and the democratic party was stumped as to why they lost. They lost because there wrong on the issues.
While I don't believe that this year we will be as successful as in '04 I do believe that we will not lose control of congress. I believe this because as you look at the polls race by race you see that they are tighting up and even if a lot of races are leaning back towards the GOP candidate. Also as a grassroots memeber, of the Repubican race. I know that we are fired up, we are energized to make sure that we keep control of congress and that we never have to say Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi!
So that being said I would say to those who are disillusioned about this elections, don't fall for the same old bag of tricks from the mainstream media! Keep working hard for your candidates get out the vote. For those democrats that are already gloating, I would say that it's far from over so don't measure the curtains yet!

Not Over Yet

Over the last several weeks I have heard the constant drum beat from the "drive by " media that a Democratic take over of at least one if not both houses of congress is all but certain. They continue to asert that American's Hate Bush, Republicans, Tax cuts, the war, the anti-terror messures, and are aching for a change and we conservatives might as well just stay home because the election is already over. They make these claims even as race after race that according to them is "all over" are tightening up or even showing the GOP candidate leading.
I recently spoke to a Republican friend of mine who was feeling blue about the election and I told him to work hard and focus on the issues cause if we can bring the campaign back to issues we win every time. We win on the issue of tax cuts for tax payers ( that means everyone who pays taxes), on gun control, winning the war on terror, on government spending ( although this congress did waver a bit on this one) on regulation, on abortion, on the death penalty, on economic stimulation, and yes on the war. Only when the democrats are able to make the election about non-issues.
So to my fellow conservatives I would give this advice, don't believe the hype, the media, or the trumpted up polls. Remember that at this point in the 2000, 2002, and 2004 elections the media was telling us that it was all over and the dems where gonna win and how did those turn out? Remember work hard for your candidates, make calls, go door to door, tell your friends and most importantly VOTE on November 7th 2006. The stakes are too high, after all we never want to have to say, Speaker of the House Pelosi!
