Republicans, the party of the asses, has won two more governor seats

The Republican Party has taken advantage of the money, greed a gullibility of the voters to take over two more governor seats. The party that cares about money spent to restart the economy and their children having to pay it off, but they don’t care if global warming causes them to live in a nightmare freakish hell. This is the party who believes in letting sick poor people die because they care so much about the “freedom” of insurance companies.

WASHINGTON - The White House says that Republican wins in two governors' races were not referendums on the president.

White House press secretary Robert Gibbs told reporters Wednesday that voters went to the polls in Virginia and New Jersey to work through "very local issues that didn't involve the president." The presidential spokesman said voters were concerned about the economy.

"I don't think the president needed an election or an exit poll to come to that conclusion," Gibbs said.

By contrast, Gibbs acknowledged that the 2010 midterm congressional elections will be more about the Obama agenda.

Republicans turned aside Democratic candidates in both Virginia and New Jersey, raising questions about the limits of the president's influence on his party's base of support and on the moderate lawmakers he needs to advance his legislative priorities.

Gibbs noted that Democrats did win two special elections for congressional seats, in California and New York.

This is the same party that champions family values and Christian ideals. That is values and rules the rest of us have to follow. Not them.
