Bad News For GOP: Radical Tea Party Candidates Spur Party Switches
Post Date: 2010-10-28 11:42:05 by Brian S

For lifelong Republican Joe Errigo, deciding to cross party lines and support a liberal Democrat for New York governor wasn't nearly as difficult as one might expect. Republican candidate Carl Paladino -- backed by the conservative Tea Party movement -- raised such political hackles he spawned a "Republicans for Cuomo" movement supporting Democrat Andrew Cuomo. Similar groups can be found in heated races elsewhere nationwide, often those featuring Tea Party-endorsed candidates, attacked by Democrats and some moderate Republicans as extreme. "When I saw his website, I said nobody could be that dumb," said Errigo, an upstate New York Assemblyman, of Paladino, a ...

CHICAGO (AP) - Republican Mark Kirk says the Bush administration lied to him about the evidence for weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Kirk voted to invade Iraq and said he was morally certain Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction. But in a debate Wednesday, the U.S. Senate candidate said he was given false information in a briefing by the deputy director of the Central Intelligence Agency under President George W. Bush. Kirk says he "absolutely" believes he was lied to. Kirk faces Democrat Alexi Giannoulias (jeh-NOO'-lee-us) in a tight race for the Senate seat once held by President Barack Obama.
Republicans Win House, Get No Mandate in Poll Favoring Clinton

Oct. 28 (Bloomberg) -- Republicans are poised to retake the U.S. House next week without a mandate from voters to carry out their policies, a Bloomberg National Poll shows. The minority party, whose supporters are more motivated and enthusiastic, leads 47 percent to 44 percent when likely voters are asked how they plan to vote in their congressional election, according to the poll conducted Oct. 24-26. The margin is wide enough that if it holds over the next five days it likely would give Republicans the net 39-seat gain needed to capture the House. At the same time, voters either are divided about or opposed to the policies and approach that Republicans have said they would offer once in ...

At a campaign event in Skokie, Illinois, Former White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer launched a blistering attack on President Obama's Middle East policy, accusing him of treating Israel like "an annoyance" and "the real threat to peace on the Middle East." Fleischer told the crowd of Jewish Republicans it is time for the President to "be silent" when it comes to criticism of Israel. "You get the sense that when Nobel Peace Prize winning, Barack Obama looks at the Middle East, he sees Israel -- small, free, and democratic -- as the true threat to peace," Fleischer told the Republican Jewish Coalition of Illinois at an event with ...

Oct. 27 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. House Republicans plan to try to slash $100 billion from the federal budget as early as January if they wrest power from Democrats in this year’s midterm elections, setting up possible early showdowns with President Barack Obama on taxes and spending. A Republican House takeover would thrust new committee heads, such as Representative Dave Camp on the Ways and Means panel, into the spotlight within weeks -- or days -- of seizing their gavels in early January. They would confront quick political tests that could alienate independent voters and Tea Party activists alike, analysts said. “The major issues are going to be fiscal, and fiscal issues are ...

SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- California GOP Senate challenger Carly Fiorina is in the hospital to be treated for an infection associated with her reconstructive surgery after breast cancer. Deborah Bowker, the campaign's chief of staff, says in a statement issued Tuesday that Fiorina was admitted to a hospital and is being treated with antibiotics. The campaign will not say when or where she was admitted. Fiorina, who is 56, fought breast cancer before her run against Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer. The former Hewlett-Packard Co. CEO has maintained a busy campaign schedule in the final weeks of the race. Bowker says Fiorina has canceled Tuesday campaign events in Riverside and Coachella. She ...

NEWARK, Del. — The man known as “the architect” of George W. Bush’s political successes initially seemed to have withdrawn to the political sidelines in the Obama era, his time past. But Karl Rove has emerged as perhaps the midterm election’s most controversial figure, managing to draw fire from across the political spectrum. Democrats up to and including President Barack Obama have singled out Rove by name for his role as the mastermind behind a network of outside groups spending tens of millions of dollars — much of it contributed anonymously — on ads boosting Republicans, while conservatives have criticized him as a power-hungry elitist ...

WOONSOCKET, R.I. (AP) -- President Barack Obama plunged into a final week of midterm election campaigning Monday, his party's prognosis darkened by a feeble economy and his itinerary stitched together to minimize losses to resurgent Republicans. Nor was his greeting likely to lift his spirits in Rhode Island where Obama has pointedly declined to endorse his party's candidate for governor. Obama can "take his endorsement and shove it," declared Democrat Frank Caprio, battling Republican-turned-independent Lincoln Chafee in a gubernatorial race rated tight in the polls. Chafee endorsed the president during the 2008 campaign for the White House. Eight days before the ...

Speaking to radio host Aaron Klein on Sunday, Huckabee said he was "very disappointed" that Rove and others were "so dismissive of Christine O'Donnell."

Brown was leading Whitman 52 percent to 39 percent among likely voters, expanding his lead particularly among women and Latino voters, according to the poll. Brown, campaigning this morning at several churches in south Los Angeles, said after one stop that he is "cautiously optimistic" about his chances in November.

A recent University of Michigan study is a call to action for those seeking the latter. Researchers found that college students today are about 40 percent lower in empathy than their counterparts from the 1980s and 1990s. Present-day students are less interested in the perspectives of friends and are less concerned for the unfortunate. Empathy is the ability to recognize, appreciate and respond to the feelings of other people. It is a fundamental building block of a healthy society. Empathy helps us understand our differences and our common ground. It enables us to go beyond the superficial to identify shared interests and accomplish collective goals.

Sarah Palin is a trendsetter, and she’s going to make this George W. Bush character popular on the campaign trail no matter what challenges stand before her. Yes, Palin invoked he-who-shall-not-be-named at a campaign event earlier today to get Republicans and independents fired up about foreign policy, fiscal responsibility, and “good ol’ Reaganism.” Too soon? Palin was in Florida with RNC Chairman Michael Steele to energize voters and supporters to get out the vote and get involved in the few days leading up to the midterm elections in early November. She began first and foremost by plugging her new program, Sarah Palin’s Alaska, and, because no Palin gets left ...

BLUE BELL, Pa.

Democratic Rep. Joe Sestak has trailed Republican Pat Toomey for months, and a GOP victory always has seemed likely, given that it's a Republican-trending year in this perpetually contested state. Yet recent polls suggest Sestak has closed the gap, and Republican leaders are imploring supporters not to panic even as they ask themselves: What's going on? The Sestak-Toomey race mirrors other Senate contests that are making this one of the most intriguing and unpredictable ...

LAS VEGAS -- Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich brought his road show here Thursday night to boost Republican Sharron Angle in her competitive race against Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, and in the process attempted to further endear himself to the tea party faithful as he considers a presidential bid in 2012. Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has long been considered the favorite national politician by the tea party movement, but Gingrich heaped praise on tea party activists and like-minded GOP candidates, revealing the beginnings of a possible attempt to woo involved activists for his own national campaign.

A Republican congressional candidate in Texas who once likened the US government to Nazi Germany went even further Thursday when he said a violent overthrow is "on the table." Stephen Broden, a candidate for Texas' 30th District, backed away from some but not all of his past controversial remarks when he was confronted by WFAA. In a 2009 interview with Fox News, Broden said that depopulation was the real agenda of the new health care law. "This administration is trying to figure out how to deal with that stress and so they are doing end-of-life counseling in order to depopulate that particular group of people," he said. Broden told WFAA that he no longer held ...

Washington (CNN) -- Dick Cheney is certainly not one to hold back on how he really feels. George W. Bush, on the other hand, has been mum. Despite their differing approaches to handling the post-White House years, their absence on the campaign trail has been obvious. "The former president has been very quiet since leaving the White House in 2008, other than appearances related to fundraising and the establishment of his presidential library," said political analyst Bill Crane. "The vice president has primarily been visible on issues such as national defense and has traditionally not been the strongest fundraising draw." Cheney also has been dealing with health ...

Republicans are on the lookout for President Obama to shift his policymaking focus away from Congress and toward new regulation. If Democrats lose control of the House and, possibly, the Senate during Nov. 2's elections, the president might try to accomplish his policy goals through rulemaking and executive order, Rep. Mike Pence (Ind.), the third-ranking House Republican, asserted Thursday. "I think they're going to shift from an aggressive liberal agenda on the floor of the Congress to an aggressive liberal agenda through regulatory agencies" and executive order, Pence said on the nationally-syndicatted "Scmitt Show."

Earlier this week Guardian journalist Ed Pilkington caught a cavalier Sarah Palin affixing her signature to Old Glory and an Ayn Rand book within a few short moments (1:33 in the video embedded below). Apparently that’s not so Kosher. Salon blogger Emma Mustich points out that signing the flag is a clear and direct violation of flag code, although it’s likely to be protected by a slew of free speech rulings (that Palin likely opposes) which have deemed flag-burning protected by the first amendment.While Palin’s act of “desecration” in and of itself will not stir up liberal outrage, the hypocrisy here is staggering. How would Sarah Palin and her ilk react if it ...
