This is a class blog for the students of POLSCI 426: Congressional Politics at the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee.
Realignment of Southern Party Politics
In class we talked about the President's interest in Congressional elections. How his goal is a unified government or to minimize the number of seats lost. We also talked about his power to endorse and campaign for his parties candidates. Right now in the South, where the Democrats stand to lose a lot of seats in what could prove to be a major political realignment or party politics. Because of this, many of the democrats are trying to distance themselves from Obama and the party program.

Yeah I saw this on television. It isn't too shocking that people are doing this. It is shocking to me that some are saying things like Pelosi wasn't their choice for speaker in the first place. We also have a democratic representative in the south calling Obama's administration a failure which is pretty harsh from a democrat. Also question if someone will try to challenge Obama in 2012.
