From Thursday night’s Fox News All-Stars.
On why the Democrats are going down in November:
I’m not sure it’s just Obama because he’s not on the ballot. I think it’s about Democrats. Democrats Pelosi and Reid are not very well-liked. The House, the Senate are held in low regard on any of the polls. …
It’s not just that we have a bad economy. That obviously is the framework and the context. It’s not just that they spent all the money on the stimulus and it hasn’t helped.
I think it’s the kind of arrogance and contempt that was shown by the Democrats.
Look, when you had the election in Massachusetts where a Republican wins a Senate seat held by the Kennedys since 1952, it means something. But it was ignored. And after it happened, Democrats shoved a health-care proposal down the throats of the Congress and the people even though it was unpopular, even though the Brown election of Massachusetts largely hinged on that and was a message about it. It was a demonstration of [Democrats saying]: We have an ideology. We won the election in ’08. We’re going to do it, and we don’t care.
And that I think is what stokes the anger of the electorate, and the energy of Republicans. So in the context of a bad economy and with the anger and the energy, its looks like a wave.
