Please tell nancy Pelosi,
We are gonna do the Hokey Pokey,
Put the "right" ones in,
Pull the "left" ones out. Ray Stevens

This election could be a real changer and the reasons are very evident. However, the Tea Party movement may be the biggest reason as can be seen by the Stevens ditty. They plan to have the largest group in history visiting DC on April 15 for their second meeting on Tax Day. I wonder how MSNBC will manage to film that one. It should be interesting to see what they do show. Maybe they will just stay at home.

The tea party will have a detrimental effect on the GOP, and that's about it, we are already starting to see it now.

You must be seeing something that most of us fail to see. What is it?

Libs are just scared of the Tea Parties and the grassroots movement. We need to keep it strong in defense of their pathetic attempts to destroy our resolve, then get the socialists out and real Americans back in.

I think you are very right about their fear of the Tea Parties. I really do want to see how they handle the April 15 group in DC this spring. We know they will use any attempt to marginalize it that they can and then they will try to ignore the numbers of people who attend. Also, they will try to negate the numbers of Democrats and independents that attend.

Hey, change that name. When I see it I see red because of the effect of Saul Alinsky on what is going on in our nation today. Keep the name since you write like a good guy.

That is what I predict will happen too. They have overplayed their hand and there will likely be a backlash- especially of the economy improves over the next year.

That is because they will be 99.99999% right wing Republicans and the Democrats would be wise to ignore them- just like the Republicans ignored the anti war protesters.

You vote Obamacare, we'll vote you outta there...

Ray Stevens has been doing this kind of music for maybe 49 - 50 years.
