Ohhh..Change You Can Believe In!

Republicans surge ahead Democrats in Gallup’s generic ballot:

PRINCETON, NJ — Republicans have moved ahead of Democrats by 48% to 44% among registered voters in the latest update on Gallup’s generic congressional ballot for the 2010 House elections, after trailing by six points in July and two points last month.

Is is a coincidence that this up-tick occurred as Pelosi care was passed to the Senate? With the increased taxation and possible jail time proposed by Pelosicare, independent voters are abandoning the Democrats in droves over this scam of a healthcare bill.

Ed Morrisey puts forth a brilliant analysis of this change:

Republicans won in 1994 by focusing on core principles of fiscal conservatism and limited government, principles that appealed to independents frightened by the statist policies of runaway Democrats. Obama, Pelosi, and Reid have essentially created all the conditions of 1994 again for the GOP to use to give them the boot, at least in the House. The Republican Party has to be smart enough to recognize that and seize the moment.

And this time, they’d better stick to those principles, too.

The only way the Republican party will stick to those principles is when voters replace Republicans with Conservatives.

Dem WCASB Candidates Endorse Teabagging?

Susan Carty, Deb Liczwek, Lisa Samuel, and Sue Tiernan are the four endorsed Democrat candidates running for a seat the West Chester Area School Board. This past week I discovered a letter written by the Treasurer of Citizens for Excellence in Public Schools. The website listed on the signature of this letter is the campaign website for the endorsed Democrat candidates for WCASB.

Screen capture of the posted letter:

The letter, an LTE not printed by the Daily Local, is posted on a website that makes a crude reference to Teabagging.

The website, www.ccdemocrats.com, is registered to Karen McCool, an individual working closely with the Dem candidates. Below is a screen shot of a teabagging reference on this website:


Teabagging is a sexually explicit phrase that denigrates both gays and women. An offensive term, no doubt, and this did not stop the treasurer of the Dem School Board candidates from posting his letter on this website. What message are the endorsed Dem candidates projecting to the students and parents in the West Chester Area School District? Are they allowing teabagging to be an acceptable cheap shot at an oponent? What about open and honest debate among the candidates or is that so very 2008? It is troubling that these four candidates have participated in such underhanded practices and have actively participated in a whisper campaign against Sean Carpenter. These actions clearly reveal they place more value on winning than providing ideas and leadership to the West Chester Area school district.
