Obama visit criticised for 'over-the-top' spending - World News - IBNLive

Washington: The costs of US President Barack Obama's upcoming trip to India has been criticised by a Republican leader as 'over-the-top' spending but the White House said the figures cited by the lawmaker have 'no basis' in reality.'

She however refused to identify specific cuts to the federal budget when asked by CNN. Obama's three-day trip starts from Mumbai where he will arrive on Saturday before proceeding to New Delhi the next day."

Senate Dems warn GOP not to block legislation - TheHill.com

Funny...when the Democrats win - it's what "The People" wanted. When the Republicans win....we MUST compromise, or move to the back of the bus and shut up....

The top three Senate Democrats said the onus was on the newly strengthened GOP conference to cooperate on legislation next year.

Republicans picked up six Senate seats Tuesday night, not enough to take control of the chamber, but the new numbers will make it harder for Democrats to get the necessary 60 votes to proceed on controversial legislation."

Nevada voters don't want Harry Reid, re-elect him anyway | Washington Examiner

LAS VEGAS — At polling places across Nevada Tuesday, researchers conducting exit polls asked voters one fundamental question about Harry Reid: Do you approve or disapprove of the way he has handled his job as senator? The results were terrible for the Senate Majority Leader. Fifty-five percent of voters disapproved of the job he has done, while 44 percent approved. Such numbers might seem a sure indicator of defeat, and yet by Tuesday night, Reid was leading his supporters in a victory celebration."

The American Spectator : The End of Blaming Bush

Today's election is more about America's Left and Right, than Democrats and Republicans. And the Left's worst blow from it will be its inability to blame Bush for it. This time, nothing stands between the left and the public's verdict. Tomorrow that verdict will be clear. And with it will go the tiresome posture in which somehow they could be present at problems without ever being responsible for them."

FT.com / Comment / Op-Ed Columnists - Obama can blame the whining left

Polls can be wrong, but if they are right the Democrats will get their heads handed to them in Tuesday’s midterm election. If the party loses control of the House of Representatives, and possibly the Senate too, President Barack Obama’s administration will be forced to change course or be stopped in its tracks. Two years after US liberals were celebrating the death of conservatism and the start of a new progressive era, a stunning reversal looks likely."
