Now here is a couple of Items that I thought was interesting

the first is that Dear old Rush Limbaugh is now saying that he was only doing a job he didn't really have a heart for. Ok quick question for this fine gentleman. Who do you think you are kidding? Is this how conservatives act? Well the ship is sinking and instead of pointing it out you just go along until the ship has sunk?

I know as a liberal I will just as quickly point at what a liberal is doing wrong as fast as I would a conservative. But as a conservative your not allowed to criticize your party? How does that work? Judging from the elections I would imagine not well. but here is the link

Where he is trying to justify his actions in defending a party that he claims he saw heading for disaster. Personally, it comes across as being a little self serving and cowardice.

The other is one if the republican base stayed home then there really is a lot more liberals democrats and independents than there are republicans. as this article suggests that the turn out rate was at forty percent.

So, I have to wonder at Tom Delay. Is he really going to suggest that sixty percent are republicans. That all these sixty percent stayed home? That takes some doing. You would have to be conspiracy nut to buy into that idea. Seriously, though is Tom DeLay going to make that argument? If so I would have to either question his sanity or be extremely worried about the power of being able to get sixty percent of the voting public to not to show up on election day.
