Just in case you follow election stats, here the financial considerations of the Congressional leadership in both the Senate and the House of Representatives.

Understand that Nancy Pelosi does not spend her funding for re-election. She lives in the safest Congressional district in the nation. The funding she raises is given to "needy fellow Democrats." John Ensign (R - Nev) has been dealing with moral --- or should we say immoral charges. --- jds

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
