Democrats Running Away From Obama And Pelosi

Democrats Avoid Mentioning They Are Dems And Bills They Voted For

 

 

Dozens of Democrats who have bucked their party on some elements of Obama's agenda — the stimulus package, health care overhaul and a climate change bill are running against socialist Obama and Pelosi this fall.  In a year of voter discontent with soaring deficits, the effort is more of a liability than strength.

 

Even Democrats who voted against the health care and climate change bills are locked in tough races because they are being linked to Obama and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.  As the campaign becomes increasingly toxic for Democrats, none of it may matter.  Georgia Rep. Jim Marshall and South Dakota Rep. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin are on the list.

"Jim Marshall's days are numbered because of his continued support of Nancy Pelosi and her agenda of backroom deals, hocus-pocus economics and massive government spending," Marshall's opponent, former Georgia legislator Austin Scott, wrote on his website.

Directly in GOP crosshairs are roughly four dozen Democrats in districts that McCain won in 2008. That's one part of any GOP calculation to reclaiming the House.  Many vulnerable Democrats have distanced themselves from Obama and Pelosi on several votes, including repeal of the "don't ask/don't tell" policy on gays in the military.

Just two years after Representative Chet Edwards (D-TX) was on Obama's short list of vice presidential candidates, he did not appear with Obama or Pelosi during their recent, separate fundraisers in Texas. Instead, Edwards campaigned with former Bush administration Veterans Affairs Secretary Anthony Principi and three retired Army generals.

"Americans are reawakened because the Democratic takeover caused them to pay attention, and the execution of the Obama-Pelosi agenda has really frightened Americans," said oil and gas executive Bill Flores who is Edwards opponent.

Flores, like other Republicans trying to unseat Democrats in conservative districts nationwide, is portraying his opponent as a Washington insider who fully backs the "failing socialist agenda" of Obama and Pelosi. In what's shaping up to be a nasty campaign, Flores has said Edwards should return $42,000 in campaign donations from New York Representative Charlie Rangel, who faces trial in the House on ethics charges.

The Democrats have backed the socialist agenda of Obama and Pelosi for the past 19 months.  Now that America is waking up to this socialist agenda some Democrats are trying to distance themselves from Obama and Pelosi.  Don’t be fooled America they are part of the problem and not part of the cure.
