Taiwanese Animation Takes On... 2010 Elections
— Ace

It's like they're just playing to us now.

What's the best part? Well, what would you say the most bizarre and lurid story of the 2010 election season is? If you know that then you've answered your own question.

Also at Hot Air: Obama's inspiring new rhetoric. Oh it's good. Remember when he said the difference between 1994 and now is "Now you've got me"?

Well, the man is delivering on the promise of "Me."

Nate Silver noted on his twitter feed today that most Democrats don't understand how "terrifying" the Generic Congressional numbers are; I was going to write about that, but Allah already did. Allah also notes that Charlie Cook has further downgraded the Democrats. 68 Democratic seats are now toss-up or merely lean Democrat, and, given a wave, almost all of those are likely to be lost.

MatthewsAntiThrill.jpg

I didn't really hit his hard enough in yesterday's post: Gallup's generic reading of 50-43 and Rasmussen's of 48 to 36 are really extraordinary, all-time highs of Republican sentiment. And mutually confirming.

And usually the rule is "add on 2-3 points" to represent better Republican turnout than polls indicate, and then subtract a point or two for Democratic dispirit... And well, it's hard to be a pimp.

Silver is trying to figure out how determinative the CGB is to November results, and while he's drawn no firm conclusions, here's a chart showing the congressional generic from 2002, when Republicans picked up a handful of seats, like 10:

Now imagine that graph for this year, extended out to November, with an unheard of 8 point (or more) lead for Republicans.

Kos is now using a more reputable pollster, but one (PPP) still widely believed to skew left, and, now bound by more credible numbers, his sycophants are... angry with him.

PPP has delivered a poll on the Missouri Senate race for Daily Kos, and IÂ’m seeing genuine anger at the results, which are now filtered for those likely to vote in November.

As Kos says, “So what’s going on? Our old friend, the intensity gap.”

...

The way the races stand today, I think it’s fairly likely that the Republicans will hold all their seats in the Senate, and gain more besides. Because, again as Kos says, “If the current malaise persists, it won’t be so close.” He says that about Missouri, but I think the same applies to the national Congressional situation.

No, it won't be close.

People make a decision as far as party on three main bases: 1, foreign policy/security, 2, similar values, and 3, the economy.

Which of these helps the Democrats? None. They all go in the same direction.

Everything already was going against the Democrats and now they have the suddenly-discovered constitutional right to gay marriage in all 50 states and President Praise Allah.

What the hell? If there were serious betting on elections, and if the mob were involved, I'd swear they were being paid off to throw the series. I'd start looking in Judge Walker's driveway for a shiny new hooker's-lipstick-red Ferrari and I'd look to see if any members of Obama's family were suddenly taking luxe vacations in countries conveniently near Switzerland--

Hey....! Wait a minute...!

Oh: Hat tip to the Editor who suggested I include a picture of Chris Matthews wincing in all poll posts... I think I'll do just that.

You must have missed the story about Rand Paul's supposed hijinks at Baylor. It was posted here on AoS last week. Apparently he was part of a "secret society" whose purpose was to cause mayhem and shock the hell out of the good Baptists at Baylor. Some woman claimed that Rand and a friend kidnapped her, forced her to smoke weed and then took her to a creek and demanded that she worship "Aqua Buddha." I think we conservatives were supposed to find it shocking! but I actually thought it was funny.

I said months ago that the Republicans would re-take the House, with a comfortable margin.  A good 50-seat pickup, I think was my prediction.

It's looking like I was being a bit too conservative, no pun intended.

Cause it's looking increasingly like a utter rout in the House, with the realistic possibility of taking the Senate, or coming close to it.

54 That Taiwanese company was almost banned in Taiwan as they 'recreate' crime scenes which means that they could convince people something happened which did not. They are certainly playing towards the US market - they have ads in English touting themselves. I wonder how careful they will be not to be lefty?

Lavoquin is an EXCELLENT antibiotic,  even if it does cost $240 for a one week supply.

I figure that is way cheap compared to 3-4 days in the hospital and maybe dying.

You're welcome (and I'm glad you're feeling better, BTW.) My memory's rotten but I think I hit all the high points. I think it was JackM that tried to declare "Aqua Buddha" the new catchphrase but it didn't catch on.

76 I don't think even a wag-the-dog war could inspire the country into turning Donk. Obviously, President Peace won't do it because it would ruin his chances at a second, historic Nobel. Second, he's not on the chopping block... only bus undercarriage-worthy peers are. Finally, the Donks are untrustworthy on national security matters. The Daddy Party will be given red carpet treatment to their Congressional seats.

There's going to be a tsunami and there's not a thing the Democrats can do about it. The atmospherics have been seeded and are coming to a boil. The more burning question is, "What will the GOP do with its mandate, a mandate it won in spite of itself and by virtue of the Tea Party?"

Oops.  I didn't see your post.  I was all confused.

So far... though, you know some of the squishes over there were actually sad he was kicked out. Who knows. Maybe they'll start a petition to have him come back.

I was more pissed off about the squishes and the concern trolls. Oh, and all that back door action.

82 Ace you gotta hang on to that picture of Matthews and use it all the time.

Looks like the tingle up his leg has turned into a trickle down it.

84 The generic ballot has other implications. When it comes to the state legislatures, people don't know much of the particular candidates. With that generic ballot number, we'll be looking at Massive majorities in statehouses. The individual gubernatorial races look great too.

85 So...the Democrats have to suck this hard before people start considering Republicans? That's not good.

87 "$100 and two weeks later, I will get my laptop back virus free...just clicked on a story over there and kaboom. So, I moved in over here." I've gotten an alert from my antivirus software (Avast) several times upon loading HA. The site seems to have very poor security. Though I've left comments about the virus problem on HA threads, I'm not sure anyone in a supervisory position at HA actually reads the comments. There's been no acknowledgment of the problem, as far as I know.

88 Editor, did you get your $100.00 for that tip?  You have to keep on Ace about that.

89 Is he still giving away free viruses?

The one  I got ended up costing me about 160 bucks, including new spyware.

90 Did you guys have the virus that tries to sell you antivirus protection? That one's a bitch.

That was douchenozzle & gay Hispanic troll "ernesto."

Still happily posting over there. Such is the stuff of HA.

92 prada sport shoes, if you're talking about AP at HA, you've nailed a very key tendency of his....
LOL.!
did you originally come here to post your ads, but end up staying for the good political chat?

That virus thing at Hot Air happened to me too.  AdWare crap seized my computer.  But I paid Geek Squad $134. I stopped going to HA

95 some enterprising Pol needs to hire these people to help with his ad campaign......

the intro to the clip was t3h aw3som3

96 71 Jenfidel,

hey welcome....

glad you crossed over....

essentially HotAir's behavior lends itself to the acrobatic 180 Jharles Chonson did over at LGF....

part of why I hammered my 95 theses to AP's forehead on my way out.

Posted by: sven10077 at August 18, 2010 04:58 AM (kq1lG)

97 80 peggy west,

quite the contrary I'd LOVE for the Hot Air trolls to come over and play here where there are no skirts to hide behind.

98 There's going to be a tsunami and there's not a thing the Democrats can do about it. The atmospherics have been seeded and are coming to a boil. The more burning question is, "What will the GOP do with its mandate, a mandate it won in spite of itself and by virtue of the Tea Party?"

What I hope: Produce reasonable, balanced budgets and force Obama to veto them, repeal (or at least attempt to repeal, or defund) obamacare, investigate and dismantle the czar apparatus.

What I fear: Waffle, get cowed, and suck up to the media.

99 72 Just don't bring those assholes you're always fighting with over here, Jen. Posted by: HornetSting at August 17, 2010 10:41 PM (/J4ob) Which assholes? I'm sure people here won't agree, but HA depresses me lately. Just a lot of vicious anti-gay bigots over there. And before one asks, I don't equate opposition to gay marriage to bigotry. But when you start comparing homosexuality to pedophilia, the line is crossed, and too many people at HA are too eager to do that sort of thing.

The look on Chrissy "Tingly Leg" Matthews says it all...
