Harry Reid Gets Punked by Palin
Hey, Harry Reid, IS THAT ALL YOU GOT? Hope and change and four more years is all the Dems can muster. They have to hope since the New Direction for America was introduced after the 2006 midterms has been a complete failure as reflected in the tank bottoming DISapproval rating of the Democratic Congress. And since no change has been demonstrated from Democratic Party politics as usual all they have left is the lame slogan of four more years.
The real reason Harry Reid objected to Palin’s comment is he has to do it. That’s understandable. Using a spokesperson to deliver the message in this case seems to prove the point for Palin. That aside, Reid is most likely really angry because the ‘people’ are claiming they want change. So they dress their rock star Obama in the ‘change agent’ wardrobe. Problem is when did he ever act in opposition to his own party? Harry Reid knows that the only ones who have are the GOP candidates. And the only Democrat to regularly oppose his party’s direction is Joe Lieberman. He was on the short list for GOP VP and now that Palin is the pick, you have three, including John McCain who are the only people in this year’s election with demonstarted ability to abandon party politics to get the job done.
And not one of them is named Barack Obama or Joe Biden. Poor Harry, he knows he’s in for another rough season. The midterm successes for the Dems only resulted in the lowest approval rating for Congress since the rocks cooled. The New Direction for America was a complete failure. The first woman Speaker of the House has been an equally disappointing situation for the Dems. And even the hurricane that Fowler and Moore touted as proof God was on the Dems side failed to deliver for them. So much for God being on your side.
So for the Dems as demonstrated by this recent communication from Harry Reid’s office the idea is to keep throwing enough, you know, at the wall and ‘hope’ something sticks. Why not, nothing else is working for them.
