In a rather stunning display of political desperation, Louisiana Senator Mary Landrieu has apparently decided that the best way to boost her flagging support was to insult everyone in the state she used to live in, as well as everyone across the entire South. While her statement to NBC News is being almost universally criticized, the truth is Sen. Landrieu is simply trotting out the two most often used excuses of desperate Democrats, racism and sexism. In this case, Sen. Landrieu is simply being more efficient by applying both terms to an entire region of the country. Let’s face it, if you can’t run on your record, you have nothing to offer in new ideas, and the leadership of your party represents the single biggest failure in modern political history, what other options do you have?

Obama's Iran Plan Makes Tuesday's Vote A Critical Global Event! (Audio)...from TPC

If Obama's plan to make a deal with Iran in his 2nd-term is true, then the mid-term election on Tuesday takes on even greater significance in terms of the safety of the world!

Because nothing says....................from Rico

Because nothing says economic strength like nominal equity market returns.
- Just ask Venezuelans, who have beaten Argentina by a nose so far this decade.

And speaking of saying nothing...guess who can't restrain himself from taking credit for the S&P's new record high with yet another televised teleprompter recital?
- Yes, Obonehead.

And last decade? Zimbabwe was the winner.
- As Kyle Bass said: "Zimbabwe's stock market was the best performer of (this) decade - but your entire portfolio now buys you three eggs."

Just a few more bouts of QE and the FED will make America #1!

JQE....................from Rico

JQE (Japanese Quantitative Easing) aka "Abenomics" gives everyone a holiday 'trick' today by suddenly increasing to 80-trillion Yen.
- Depreciating the Yen (making it worth less) is NO treat, make no mistake.

While the GOJ (Government of Japan) daily tells its subjects that they have things well in hand, and are on exactly the right track, the disconnect between government delusion and the reality faced by the people is tangible.
- Sound familiar?

The only thing going UP is the rate of bankruptcies. You don't have to be able to read Japanese to understand this chart.
- In 2014 YTD alone the bankruptcy rate has increased 140%.

The return of Ten Buck Friday, and down the stretch they come!

This is it. Week Nine of a Nine Week Mission, to Seek Out new life for the Senate, to Boldly hand Harry Reid a trick instead of a treat! Last call, people!

Focusing on the Senate races is it worth ten bucks a week to you (four pounds of candy corn?) to eliminate Reid's control and give the Senate responsible leadership again?

With that in mind, these are the eight candidates we've backed to date:

Scott Brown - New Hampshire -2.2

Cory Gardner - Colorado +3.3

Bill Cassidy - Louisiana +4.5

Thom Tillis - North Carolina -1

Tom Cotton - Arkansas +5

Joni Ernst - Iowa +2.1

David Perdue - Georgia +.4

Dan Sullivan - Alaska +2.2

(All polls via Real Clear Politics)

Originally, the plan was to contribute to the race in MI, where the Dem has a double digit lead. Therefore, my recommendation is to tag one of the above with a second contribution and put your money where it may do the most good.

(If you mark your contribution as "Ten Buck Friday", they'll see if the blogosphere can give them a little bump.)

Be sure to vote this coming Tuesday. Take a friend!

The US dollar is under attack!...from TPC

Of concern for the United States is that the continuation of the global preeminence of the US dollar, failed US foreign policy and Federal Reserves QE-ad infinitum are inextricably intertwined.

This article looks at the historical impact of hyperinflation on a currency along with the danger that the US dollar will lose its current place as the global currency of choice!
