Democrat Party Suffers its High Disapproval Rating, while Republicans Enjoy a Rising Approval Rating

By Rob Janicki

Not surprisingly, the Democrat brand across America has suffered a significant blow to its approval rating according to Gallup's latest polling.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- After the midterm elections that saw the Democratic Party suffer significant losses in Congress, a record-low 36% of Americans say they have a favorable opinion of the party, down six percentage points from before the elections. The Republican Party's favorable rating, at 42%, is essentially unchanged from 40%. This marks the first time since September 2011 that the Republican Party has had a higher favorability rating than the Democratic Party. Read much more Gallup.com here

The elections actually have spoken more clearly than even the Gallup polling, since they are tangible facts that are irrefutable.  Republicans have opened the margin of approval considerably.  Now they have to demonstrate that those who voted for Republicans were not mistaken in doing so.  

Republicans cannot rest upon the outcome of the recent elections to believe they have some kind of mandate from voters.  Rather, they have been given a challenge by voters to turn America around from a failing and floundering leadership to a leadership of those who will actually move America along a more traditional path and direction of economic growth and world leadership.

Going forward and looking at the 2016 presidential election campaign cycle, we see the Democrat candidate bench as being old and tired in Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden.  Elizabeth Warren, a relative newcomer in national Democratic politics, is a far left radical liberal and unlikely to motivate a national electorate with her outrageous rhetorical rants on time worn and thread bare liberal talking points.  Fauxcohontas, aka Dizzy Lizzy Warren, will simply not cut it on a national level.

The Republican success in this year's congressional midterm elections has been due in great part to the party presenting top quality candidates that could distinguish themselves from their Democrat opponents.  Was this skill or pure happenstance?  Only time will tell.

The Republican challenge in 2016 is to replicate this success of 2014 by fielding great electable candidates, especially at the presidential level.  The greatest challenge to the Republican Party is getting away from the seniority system of selecting candidates by their party tenure, rather than by their real ability to win head to head contests against Democrat candidates.  This is an absolute must for selecting a presidential candidate.  Will the Republican establishment be able to adapt to this necessary new model?  Only time will tell.

Democrats, afraid of right-wing use of the Internet in political campaigning, seek limits through FEC regulations.

Democrats are becoming desperate, and this is just the latest move on their part to shutdown the political right.  Democrats have already reconciled themselves to losing House seats and very possibly the Senate, if not control of the Senate, with November 4th congressional mid-term elections across America.  But, they are now looking to the 2016 presidential campaign, which looks to be a head banger in the Democrat primary between two super radical liberals, Hillary Clinton and Elizabeth Warren.  I think we can all agree that Joe Biden doesn't have a snowball's chance in Hell to win the Democratic nomination.  By logical elimination, that only leaves Hillary and Princess Dizzy Lizzy of the Lyin' Tribe on the Prevarication Reservation.

No matter what some liberal pundits might say, Hillary Clinton is running scared that Elizabeth will capture the far left before she can.  Typically, a Democrat candidate will tack to the left in the Democrat primaries to capture the hearts and minds of the loons of the ultra left.  This strategy is then followed by a decided move to the center for the presidential election and is done with a wink and a nod to the radical liberal left to let them know this strategy is just window dressing to capture the political middle. 

Now we have the liberals on the Federal Election Commission trying to run interference for Hillary and Dizzy Lizzy and their cohorts.  Forget about 1st Amendment rights, the liberal members of the FEC could care less about those rights for the political right in America.  You can be certain that these liberals have crafted such rules and regulations that will give their party special considerations to get around any such rules that the FEC might pass.  The good news is that the liberal attempt was rebuffed in a deadlock tie vote, but that does not put the issue to rest forever.

In a surprise move late Friday, a key Democrat on the Federal Election Commission called for burdensome new rules on Internet-based campaigning, prompting the Republican chairman to warn that Democrats want to regulate online political sites and even news medialike the Drudge Report.

Democratic FEC Vice Chair Ann M. Ravel announced plans to begin the process to win regulations on Internet-based campaigns and videos, currently free from most of the FEC’s rules. “A reexamination of the commission’s approach to the internet and other emerging technologies is long over due,” she said. 

The power play followed a deadlocked 3-3 vote on whether an Ohio anti-President Obama Internet campaign featuring two videos violated FEC rules when it did not report its finances or offer a disclosure on the ads. The ads were placed for free on YouTube and were not paid advertising.

Are You Ready for Liz for President?

by Kim D.

If your answer is "Oh, hell no," too bad. Warren for President is up and running, soliciting signatures to petition for an Elizabeth Warren presidential run in 2016. Of course, this effort and its backers assume that Hillary Clinton is damaged goods and that she will decline an automatic coronation to run on the Democratic ticket. 

Along with the petition undertaking is a hipster, music video that claims America wants the next president to be a woman. Hmmm . . . so #WarOnWomen and all the other trending feminist hashtags must have worked.  We need a woman president no matter what – since when did having a vagina become the prime requisite for the most important job in this country?

Oh well, take a listen to “Run Liz Run” to hear what all the fuss is about.  Personally, when I listen, I get a mental picture of some chick sporting Birkenstocks and a pooplock hairdo wearing tampon earrings. But, more realistically, she’s probably just a hipster feminist singing a bad song.
