Another Off Year Election

And yet it seems Democrats and Republicans keep slinging that crap. That creepy Eric Cantor, Republican House Whip, was on Hardball with Chris Matthews discussing how it's all a referendum on the Obama Administration. Of course he says that now that the Virginia governor's race went to the Republican jerk and not the Democratic dweeb. I swear, I don't know which is worse, the creeps on the Republican side or the boring wet blankets on the Democrat side of the aisle. Quite frankly, I side with the Democrats by default as of late.

The only solace I have is in The Daily Show and The Colbert Report. Here's a Daily Show clip. Apologies to those living outside this country who may have trouble accessing Comedy Central videos. It baffles me as to why they have blocked it. I sent an inquiry but so far have received no explanation.

In any case, here's Jon Stewart - the most trusted 'news anchor' in America. lol

What gets me about off-year elections is that there is low turnout, which makes it better for conservatives. When more people vote, they don't do as well. So how can anything this year be a referendum against anything? Except it proves only a minority of the people in this country (9% I believe) consider themselves to be Republican and those are the ones who turn out to vote in off year elections. lol

I hope you get to see it. Jon Stewart puts things in perspective so well. I'm quite fed up with all the news outlets in this country and the hysteria they throw into EVERYTHING. I primarily have a problem with FOX but the other networks are starting to irk me, too.
