Should Romney go for the Senate Special Election seat to replace Kennedy?!?!

JLenardDetroit (Diary) Thursday, August 27th at 3:49PM EST (link)

Pardon me if this has been asked elsewhere, but I’m still having “issues” getting into non-FP diaries (Reco-code) that hasn’t been isolated yet. Anyway….

If Romney is even “supposedly” remotely electable to consider a Presidential run, he ought to be able to have “a shot” at this!?!?!

Romney would certainly be best positioned to have a chance

JLenardDetroit (Diary) Thursday, August 27th at 4:30PM EST (link)

Since they didn’t get the Law changed back to allow the Gov. to appoint… and those antics (with Romney being the Gov. they insisted on changing to prevent making a pick if Kerry had won) would/could/should be an issue of the Democrats shenanigans. Or will the Democrats try and ram through the change in law and try to make it retroactive and relevant to this now vacant seat? A part of me would love to see them try to pull that! If Romney couldn’t get this seat he sure wouldn’t have the chance to get Presidency in ’12 and if he does it positions him better for 16/20.

Curt Schilling (R) for MA-Senate to replace Kennedy seat?!?

JLenardDetroit (Diary) Thursday, August 27th at 8:41PM EST (link)

Curt Schilling was was mentioned before and I heard him mentioned again today as a potential run at Kennedy’s seat… all the more reason I heard again today that the Democrats may be trying to still go ahead ex-post-facto and retroactively change the Law to allow the MASS (D) Gov. make an appointment DESPITE the current law REQUIRING a Special Election that Ted Kennedy himself INSISTED be passed when Romney was Gov. PATHETIC!!! They must be called on it… It is a CLEAR ADMISSION that they know the mood of the country and that it IS NOT with them and that they could lose a Special Election to someone like the popular Schilling (or potentially Romney)!!! We must not let this drop, there MUST BE A SPECIAL ELECTION!!!

JLenardDetroit (Diary) Friday, August 28th at 1:40PM EST (link)

(All States should amend laws to require some form of Special Elections) this should prove as example again that it appears CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS in every State is needed to STOP their Politicians (from both sides, we have to have this declared “fairness” for us all). Whether it be a vote by the people or at least require nominations be put into consideration into a States’ Legislature and THEY hold the Special Election (there is more direct pressure to State Officials that way and it is not in 1 persons hands).

All that, again has been discussed before and will be again (Special Elections – All States should amend laws to require some form of Special Elections / Blago & IL fiasco – Blago) and we should keep the pressure on.

At least have some class and let the body

Leopard1996 (Diary) Thursday, August 27th at 6:24PM EST (link)

Be buried in Arlington (where I’m sorry as the son of a veteran he does not belong). Before you try and start using him as a political football. Maybe a picture of Kennedy’s head being kicked by some Donkey’s on a football field would be more apt.

Sorry, no class.

“Lieutenant Dike wasn’t a bad leader because he made bad decisions. He was a bad leader because he made no decisions.”

Good point

I personally was too young for the whole Chappaquidick thing (Probably didn’t even spell it right), but from what I read, he deserved some jailtime at the least, and some electrodes attached to his scrotum and set to high at the most.

Shovel ready...

JLenardDetroit (Diary) Thursday, August 27th at 8:31PM EST (link)

Water polo… I had to laugh at that….

And while Rush only hinted at it, I’ll say it:
Kennedy has provided the Democrats a Shovel Ready project – which should be to bury the HC Bill.

… we now return to our serious discussion….

A "Ted Kennedy" tribute HC Bill that can pass... R's should submit...

JLenardDetroit (Diary) Thursday, August 27th at 7:58PM EST (link)

Republicans should immediately upon return place into consideration a HC Bill in Kennedy’s name that can IMMEDIATELY be passed with 100% unanimous support… The Bill can/should be brief/short and deal with the one issue EVERYONE will agree on: COMPLETE ELIMINATION OF PRE-EXISTING CONDITION EXCLUSIONS – PERIOD!!!!

Again, Republicans should submit it as it’s very own stand-alone piece of legislation in both the House and Senate simultaneously!!!! Democrats will, of course, really want to OPPOSE it but will find it difficult (which is why it must be immediately done) as that is the number 1 issue (supposedly) regarding HC jitters. Democrats really won’t want it because fixing that number 1 concern will give even greater/further rise to the fact that THERE IS NO NEED TO RUSH ANY OTHER HC REFORM – ESPECIALLY THEIR REAL AGENDA OF A COMPLETE HC TAKEOVER!!!

The republicans won't cry a tear for Teddy

izoneguy (Diary) Thursday, August 27th at 8:18PM EST (link)

and they won’t be at the funeral. JLD is right, the Republicans in the House & Senate should work on dozens of one page bills plastered with Teddy’s name on them……

The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.

Iz, unfortunately, the Republicans WILL

theBlur (Diary) Thursday, August 27th at 9:08PM EST (link)

be at Dead Ted’s funeral. Part of the “congeniality” of the legislative body, as it were. There may be a few Republican’s with the spherical fortitude to point out that, despite the fawning media attention, ol’ Dead Ted had not a chance to get cool before the D’s were invoking his (in their mind) saintly moniker in order to advance the health care fiasco.

Let ‘em (both the D’s and the media) go for it. I know that here in my home state, Dead Ted only gets what sympathy he will from ultra-liberals and institutionalized DC types. Everyone else is going “meh?” In fact, at my favorite bar, the most popular bumper sticker on the wall is “Teddy for President – A Blond in Every Pond.”

I’d love to have a modicum of respect for ol’ Dead Ted, but I just cannot. He represented all that was bad about the power structure in DC, despite what the beltway pundits (even ours) say.

 
 

get real...........

idealjoe (Diary) Thursday, August 27th at 9:02PM EST (link)

if you think this is about healthcare then you are sadly mistaken! Obama and his handlers are in the process of destroying our constitution and our dual party system.. He is trying to create a Hugo Chavez reenactment with him as the Dear Leader . He is a master of deceit and misdirection and so far he has been ahead of most of our elected officials. He has us looking over here(health care) while he is happily working in the background turning America into a Marxist third world country. Also he is busily destroying our intelligence capabilities and creating a new military that would only answer to him.. He is definitely coming for our guns.
Never in the history of this nation have we been under such a covert attack by of all people the president of the United states. Wake up America! This is unbelievable but it’s true. It’s time for real patriots to stand once again.

Mr. Obama……you ain’t above the law!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why would ye die?

Shame you miss the point (and all my Diaries on the topic)....

JLenardDetroit (Diary) Thursday, August 27th at 9:34PM EST (link)

(though it is understandble you just not know me and therefore lack context) We all know it has nothing to do with Health Care to the Democrats… which is why we can/could take it and turn it to actually being about HC… If the Dem’s take the bait and oppose the ONE FIX everyone agrees upon it just further demonstrates the point…. It’s called, beating them at their own game!

+Harry/Louise – Harry & Louise want you to pay for their Head examinations?
+Gang of Sicks (er… Six) – The Senate HC “Gang Of Sicks” (formerly 7, but Hatch left and that didn’t have the fun play on words ;-) lol)
+Clunker portends – Cash4Clunkers portends the HC fiasco in so many ways… Basic math!!

Like most Marxists - Obama is not very smart

izoneguy (Diary) Thursday, August 27th at 10:04PM EST (link)

I know the “HealthCare Reform” bill is not about HealthCare.
I know the “stimulus” wasn’t.
I know the Cap & Trade bill called The American Clean Energy and Security Act (H.R. 2454) has nothing to do with Clean Energy or security.

Most of the republicans are in the forest and the socialists have set off a ring of fire around that forest.

The republicans need to start fighting like the future of America depends on it – because it does. The fall back position will get very ugly but most patriots are ready – even if the people we elected to represent us – are not.

The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.

simple misunderstandings

JLenardDetroit (Diary) Thursday, August 27th at 11:01PM EST (link)

I’m glad idealjoe wrote, as he reminded me I had even more points that I needed to save off links to for future such misunderstandings and/or wrong assertions that need refuting (I learned long ago I need to keep some past comments of my own and others on file for such times)… He just simply lacked context of knowing us in this conversation and took my thought wrong (his assertions, of course, about the Left are correct which we took for granted, unsaid, as granted fact w/o needing to say, in this particular instance).

Glad you (and ‘quin) chimed in… We do all know the game being played (and as ‘quin points out, whether we get through or not is another thing) we need to try to push back and mold the issues back to what they are indeed supposed to be about. This provides another one of those subtle reminders that outsiders come around and we must therefore be more thourough with our comments – though it gets tideous and repeatitive (greatly lengthening comments). I’ll give him/her (and other potential new readers) one last referal of: be respectful, or be banned (the Diary) NOT to suggest he/she was not respectful, but for the thoughts in regard to these interactions and the occasional misunderstandings we have to be careful of.

Here are those couple more HC points I wanted to save off:
+an aside, Kennedy seat hypocrisy – MASS looks to ex-post-facto change Law to appoint Dem. to Kennedy seat
+another aside, Obama LAST KENNEDY Bro?!?! – Chrisy Matthews declares Obama last Kennedy brother
+McCain HC – McCain HC Townhall details, another sell-out pre-declared!
+Angry mob script – Democrats and MSM keep playing the Angry Mob script

JLD, I don't think the republicans could even get a hearing.

penguin2 (Diary) Thursday, August 27th at 10:17PM EST (link)

I think you have a great idea to introduce a very limited, focused bill, but aren’t the Republicans shut out of all debate and discussion? Even to introducing a bill? It seems that they have had a terrible time getting any alternative message out about their own plan up until now. Jaded in RedHot tonight noted that ABC and NBC are refusing any antiObamacare commercials. I like your idea of beating them at their own game, are they allowed to introduce a bill, even if they lose on its advancement?

BTW, you can e-mail neil@redstate.com on your continued computer glitches. He’s been tracking and fixing this stuff.

From ObamaCare to KennedyCare

SoFiMil (Diary) Thursday, August 27th at 9:44PM EST (link)

I think the Obama Administration is more than pleased to have the bill named after Ted Kennedy — even if it won’t help with the bill’s passage. If and when the bill goes down it flames it, the failure of health care won’t reflect as negatively on Obama. For that reason, I’ll continue to call it ObamaCare.
