"I have a mindset that says bipartisanship ought to consist of Democrats coming to the Republican point of view." -- Indiana U.S. Senate nominee Richard Mourdock (R), quoted by Politico. Some of us have known that was the Republican view for some time. Perhaps the media and certain Democrats (cough cough Carper Coons Carney) can finally wake up to it.

I am not sure what Rove is smoking making us think Georgia, Kentucky, Tennessee, and North Dakota are only leaning Republican while Colorado is in the bag for Obama. It is most likely a Rovian mind trick, trying to get us to spend money there. So I started looking at all the state polls on the Huffington Post map, and determined that I too would maintain our own DL map in the open threads day to day, based on only the latest polls in that state, except for Rasmussen polls for obvious reasons.

The UK and the Eurozone are stagnant, even declining back into recession, because they are pursing the Republican policy of severe austerity. That is what will happen to us if we elect Mitt Romney and a Republican Congress. A return to recession.
