Meh, I think more liberals will stay home. They're just too lukewarm about the president and too principled to unify.

You know, if the GOP could actually field someone worth a second look they just might get some serious attention, until that happens the voters will not back the GOP. Here is a clue to get ya started, STOP telling everyone what you think President Obama is doing wrong and tell us what you plan on doing right, include all those pesky details while you are at it so we can judge if you are just blowing smoke or atually for real.

There are some idiots in Dallas that are smarter than those that call all potential GOP candidates "retreads, rejects and retards" that will vote for them, maybe just to get Obama out.

It's shaping up to be an ABO election for sure...

Dennis Kucinich files lawsuit against President Obama, says Libya war violates the law

U.S. Rep. Dennis Kucinich and nine colleagues sued the Obama administration today over the president's decision to provide air and intelligence support to NATO's mission in Libya.

...
Joining Kucinich's lawsuit were Democrats Michael Cupuano of Massachusetts and Conyers, and Republicans Walter Jones and Howard Coble of North Carolina; Jimmy Duncan of Tennessee; Roscoe Bartlett of Maryland; Tim Johnson of Illinois; Dan Burton of Indiana, and Paul.


I don't understand. Congress has the power to defund these actions. Why are they going to court? They don't need the courts. Am I missing something?

It would take 2/3 of both houses to override a veto - 10 congressmen doesn't quite get you there.

Also, there is no special appropriation for Libya, it's just being paid for out of annual DOD appropriations...
