Hillary Clinton Photo of the Day: The Demon
Matt Drudge, as always, is having fun with Hillary Clinton. This photo on the Reuter’s wire is pretty weird.And, it reminds us that if the Democrats insist on sending the Clintons out to save their ass in the Midterm Congressional elections (in five weeks), there will be reminders of what has gone on before – like impeachment, perjury, “sex with that woman” and political contribution corruption.
Some outstanding surrogates, the Clintons make – for the GOP

Day By Day September 28, 2010 – Burn Out The Vote
Day By Day by Chris Muir
The Democrats and LEFTY unions have no recourse but committ voter fraud since their ideas are bankrupt and Americans are rejecting them, right? But, their fearless leader is now telling them to BUCK UP.Admonishing his own party, President Barack Obama says it would be “inexcusable” and “irresponsible” for unenthusiastic Democratic voters to sit out the midterm elections, warning that the consequences could be a squandered agenda for years.
“People need to shake off this lethargy. People need to buck up,” Obama told Rolling Stone in an interview to be published Friday. The president told Democrats that making change happen is hard and “if people now want to take their ball and go home, that tells me folks weren’t serious in the first place.”
The midterm elections are in five weeks and polling shows that Republicans, out of power at the White House and on Capitol Hill, have a much more excited base of supporters than Democrats. Obama, campaigning this week in four states, is in a sprint to restore the voter passion that helped him win office.
Good Grief……

Albert Greenwood Brown’s Execution Delayed by California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger
From yesterday evening’s Fresno television station KFSNCalifornia Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger issued the stay for Albert Greenwood Brown this afternoon and delayed the first California execution in five years.
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger issued an order Monday delaying the execution of a convicted rapist and murderer by one day, postponing what would be the first death sentence carried out in California in nearly five years.
Schwarzenegger cited procedural reasons for the temporary reprieve, saying that an appeals court decision allowing the execution to be carried out would not take effect until Thursday, a day after the execution was previously scheduled.
The reprieve ends at 11:59 p.m. Wednesday.
The execution has now been scheduled for 9 PM Thursday night.
The governor allowed the stay so that Brown could exhaust his final appeals which would not be decided until Thursday.
Brown’s attorneys have filed simulataneous appeals to the federal courts and state courts, seeking to block his execution on the grounds that the state improperly adopted its new lethal injection procedures. They allege that execution under the new regulations would amount to cruel and unusual punishment.
The 45-hour reprieve pushes the execution to within hours of the expiration date on the state’s supply of sodium thiopental, one of the drugs used in the lethal injection process.
The attorney general’s office said Monday that it would recommend not scheduling any more executions after Sept. 30 until the state could secure a fresh supply of the drug, an anesthetic that renders the condemned inmate unconscious before lethal drugs are injected.
The delay was imposed by Schwarzenegger just hours after Marin County Superior Court Judge Verna Adams refused to block Brown’s execution after he argued in a lawsuit that California’s new death penalty regulations were improperly adopted.
“Mr. Brown cannot prove that he will suffer pain if he is executed under the current regulations,” Adams said.
A federal judge ruled similarly on Friday after Brown contended California’s lethal injection process put him at risk of suffering cruel and unusual punishment.
I mean he has had ONLY, what, almost thirty years!
Again, I would not hold my breath for this or any California execution soon.
What a travesty of justice.

CA-Sen: San Francisco Chronicle Refuses to Endorse Barbara Boxer
Pat Buchanan on MSNBC talking about Carly Firoina’s latest television ad, “Sir”.When a left-wing rag in San Francisco refuses to endorse your candidacy, you know you are in trouble. And, this is what has happened to Senator Barbara Boxer.
Californians are left with a deeply unsatisfying choice for the U.S. Senate this year. The incumbent, Democrat Barbara Boxer, has failed to distinguish herself during her 18 years in office. There is no reason to believe that another six-year term would bring anything but more of the same uninspired representation.
But, they did not endorse Carly Fiorina either. But, why would anyone expect this far-left publication to endorse ANY Republican?
This whole exercise is more of a SLAP at Boxer and California Democrats for an OBVIOUS lack of performance.

Day By Day September 27, 2010 – Theft
Chris, American voters must be EVER vigilant to protect our right to vote. Many over the years have attempted to GAME the system. Look at the Houston case:Two Texas activist groups, Houston Votes and Texans Together Education Fund, were accused Tuesday of an organized voter fraud campaign by Harris County Voter Registrar Leo Vasquez, who likened the groups to the now-discredited ACORN.
“The integrity of the voting rolls in Harris County, Texas, appears to be under an organized and systematic attack by the group operating under the name Houston Votes,” Vasquez said at a 2 p.m. press conference at his office, where he also released copies of applications in some of the most egregious cases.
Houston Votes is the get-out-the-vote arm of the Texans Together Education Fund.
“Evidence shows that the Houston Votes and Texans Together organization are conspiring on a pattern of falsification of government documents, supporting perjury in a deliberate effort to overburden our processing system,” he said.
Vasquez said he is turning evidence over to the Secretary of State’s office and the Harris County District Attorney’s office for further action. He called into question more than 5,000 voter registration applications.
Vasquez’ office announcement was based in part on research by a conservative-leaning citizens’ group, the King Street Patriots, which had presented his staff with documentation of questionable voter registrations, a leader of the Patriots group said.
And….. I am looking forward to receiving my Day By Day Goodies.
Thanks Chris!

Updated – CA-Sen Poll Watch: Barbara Boxer 51% Vs. Carly Fiorina 43%
++++++Update ++++++From the Carly Fiorina campaign:
September 26, 2010MEMORANDUM
TO: Interested Parties
FR: Martin Wilson, C ampaign Manager, Carly for California
RE: Los Angeles Times Poll/CA Senate Race Update
________________________________________________________________________The just-released poll by the Los Angeles Times is neither an accurate nor a reliable reflection of voter interest or likely participation in the upcoming election.
Simply put, the Times poll overestimates Democratic voter participation by a wide margin, hence it produced skewed results that are inconsistent with other public and private polling in this race, including the respected Field Poll released on Friday. Specifically, the poll’s sample indicates that self-identified Democrats will hold a 16.75 percent advantage over Republicans, which is at least double what other credible polls indicate. In addition to understating the Republican vote, its results are based on 9 percent
participation of independent voters when, again, other pollsters estimate that at least 20 percent of the electorate will be comprised of swing voters.With such an errant sampling methodology, we are amazed that Boxer’s lead over Carly is not in the double digits as opposed to the eight-point advantage they are giving the incumbent. At this stage and in light of the dynamics of the race during the time this survey was in the field, that is a gap that can, and will, be bridged in the coming weeks.
For 10 days, while this survey was being conducted, Barbara Boxer spent several million dollars on unanswered advertising mischaracterizing both her own record and Carly’s record. It is notable that, despite this, Barbara Boxer was unable to increase her standing with voters in the Field Poll. We are now answering back with the launch of our advertising campaign just 72 hours ago, after both the Times and Field polls had been completed. As this campaign moves forward and as voters become aware of the facts about Barbara Boxer, the hyper-partisan career politician, the dynamics in this race will change quickly. Over the course of the next 38 days, the spotlight will be squarely on
Barbara Boxer and the low road she has taken toward achieving higher office. Carly will stand in stark contrast to Boxer’s record of failure: a bipartisan problem solver who will use her real-world business experience to find common-sense solutions to solving our state and nation’s problems. As that happens, the numbers in this race will move, so hold on to your hats for an exciting and competitive race to November 2.+++++++++++++Pollster’s Interactive poll average graph: Boxer 47.9& Vs. Fiorina 44.2%The latest poll in this race from the Los Angeles Times/USC is probably an outlier since the venerable California Field Poll has the race closer and they polled at about the same time. Also, there have been some documented deficiencies in the polling sample (Meg Whitman campaign)
There is strong evidence why the LA Times/USC Poll is out-of-step with the California Field Poll, despite the fact that they polled voters at the same time. The Field Poll conducted interviews from September 14-21 and the LAT/USC Poll was in the field September 15-22. The most significant difference is that the LAT/USC poll under-sampled Republicans. That’s why its results differ so sharply from Field and all the other recently reported public polls, as well as our own internal polls. Field provides a far truer representation of California’s 2010 electorate, in our estimation.
But…..this is yet another poll that has Carly Fiorina behind.

CA-Gov Poll Watch: Is Jerry Brown Really Ahead of Meg Whitman?
California Attorney General and Democrat nominee for Governor Jerry Brown’s latest television ad. In this ad Brown attempts to reinvent himself again (LIES to voters) about increasing taxes and local control of governmentWell, if you believe the LA Times/USC poll Brown is ahead by five points (49%-44%) but there are some problems with the polling samples.
There is strong evidence why the LA Times/USC Poll is out-of-step with the California Field Poll, despite the fact that they polled voters at the same time. The Field Poll conducted interviews from September 14-21 and the LAT/USC Poll was in the field September 15-22. The most significant difference is that the LAT/USC poll under-sampled Republicans. That’s why its results differ so sharply from Field and all the other recently reported public polls, as well as our own internal polls. Field provides a far truer representation of California’s 2010 electorate, in our estimation.
My belief which is supported by the venerable California Field Poll and polling averages is that the election is very close. Look at the poll average graph below.
Pollster Interactive CA-Gov Poll Average Graph (Meg Whitman 45.7% Vs Jerry Brown 44.8%)
In my various social ventures (in person) outside the blogosphere nobody and I mean nobody is discussing Jerry Brown or Barbara Boxer – absolutely no idol conversation about the coming elections at all. There are no signs, bumper stickers or anything in the lefty parts of Los Angeles. I cannot foresee an enthusiastic turnout for the Democrats in November – at least not in heavily Democratic Los Angeles County.
This is a very good sign for Meg Whitman and Carly Fiorina.

Day By Day September 26, 2010 – MIA
Chris, American voters now understand how they were hoodwinked by Rahm Emanuel (now President Obama’s Chief of Staff) in the 2006 election cycle by portraying Democrats as conservatives in red-leaning Congressional Districts. Of course, said Democrats post-election, have voted for Speaker Pelosi’s Far-Left San Francisco agenda – in lockstep.Now, voters will hold them accountable.
What is the difference between now and 2006?
No, it is not the fact that Rahm is no longer there (as the Chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee) to hold the Democratic Congressional candidate’s hand. Since this time, the internet has expanded and voters have more current information – like how their own Congressional Representatives have voted. YouTube, Twitter and Facebook have all contributed to the idiom: “You can run but you can’t hide.”
