This is the kind of thinking we need. We are Breitbart

The differences with 1980: Carter was an abject foreign policy failure; whatever went wrong during Obama's term, he could always point to bin Laden's death (and blame Bush). Also, I don't know if the books have been cooked to hide price increases, but we don't have double digit inflation as we did in the Seventies.
Two more factors in this election: the auto bailout was a plus for Obama in the Midwest, and enough Hispanic voters are willing to punish any talk of immigration reform to sway some Western states (and perhaps Florida).
Then we need to find another way to win.
I know, if it was only that easy.
Definitely! We have be come a stupid society. One of the sources I blame - Sesame Street. We've forced learning into 30 second clips. I teach college level classes and textbooks are now filled with big colorful meaningless diagrams to "capture" the attention of students. It's a shame!! Learning doesn't really happen like it does on Sesame Street.
Three things that will bring a reversal of all this:
Depression (could bring more socialism)
Major War (won’t happen) I don’t think Iran will attack Israel. I would wait and let demographics run it’s course. Muslim increase in population and then push for total democracy.
Major terrorist attack ( if I were an islamic terrorist, why attack the US with a sympathizer in the WH)?
I think we’re up sh!% creek without a paddle.
Well, we do have one advantage, if we are smart enough to capitalize on it. Now that it looks like we may be out of power for a while, the Democrats will get to see what it is like to be “the Man” again. It’s a lot harder to convince the kids that you are the cool, rebellious outsiders when you have been controlling the country for years and years.
If we’re smart, we will wear the media derision and smears against us as a badge of honor, and play up our image as the renegades. Breitbart knew how to play up that angle very well, but most of the rest of our gang is hopeless when it comes to being “hip”.
Sesame Street is crap, but I think it’s just a symptom. The real problem is that too many parents just farm out the responsibility for educating their kids, to PBS, or some “edutainment” DVD’s, or the public skools. Kids need parents to care about whether they are learning and what they are learning, otherwise the kids aren’t going to care much themselves.
I’ve been thinking about this myself. Young women were not created (or evolved) to be alone. No matter the culture, it’s part of our biology. They are insecure and fearful, and therefore irrational because of it. It’s less unusual for young men to go off on their own, still not the healthiest thing, but definitely not for young females.
There are those called Truthers (9/11), Birthers (Obama birth certificate), and Deniers (climate change).
As of yesterday, I include myself as a member of what I’ll refer to as the “Counters” (voter fraud 2012) group.
American voted with her “lady parts” alright and succeeeded in becoming a gigantic dumb tw@t.
The election was stolen via massive fraud. Pure and simple. There simply aren’t enough sluts or I would have never bothered to graduate college.
As of yesterday, my 24’ flag pole is naked.

You didn't go to my alma mater. In the late 1970's in a school when women outnumbered men 2 to 1, any guy who wanted some could find it.
Of course, a large number of girls were looking for their MRS degree
Duh!!
Here's the link that got me thinking:
The one I found most interesting:
Are you currently married? Category Obama Romney % Total Yes 42 56 60 No 62 35 40
Duh!!

Rush just played a quote by Cain that we need a third party for conservatives. If he acts on that, me and my money will follow.
The goal is to have a party which has conservative values and platform and make the repubs the third party.
We are now a minority in a minority party.
I’m 66 and have no more patience for b—lsh!&.
I am the furthest thing from a “troo believer.” I follow the idea that “extraordinary theories require extraordinary evidence.” I’m not a 9/11 truther or a birther (I think the scandal is Obama pretended to be Kenyan-born which helped him get into Harvard.) Climate change happens, it’s happened as long as the world has existed. Not enough evidence to show we are to blame for any weather pattern changes of the last few decades. Definitely not enough for the Greenies to try to “fix” it.
It’s just we can’t take for granted that Democrats acting as an organized cheating machine isn’t an extraordinary proposition. We know they are amoral. We know they are organized. We know they hate us. We know they feel justified with every slimy move they pull. We know they try to cheat and don’t find a problem with it. It’s just the fact that it’s really comfortably easy to say “pah on conspiracy theories” and it’s hard to actually accept the world is not as nice as we like to think.
I have a friend who is going to look at the numbers by voting precinct and see whether there are any irregularities between ‘08 and ‘12. Already we are seeing interesting things, even if they are legit. For one, Republican turnout was not down evenly across the board. Romney got way more votes in TX than McCain received in 08. Wisconsin netted more than 150K more this election as well. But in OK and Kansas, Republican turnout dropped. Also in Vermont. Because they knew how their states would go? Perhaps. But I’m tired of the “evangelicals didn’t turn out” line as if we are a monolith of belief. We can’t just assume without actually looking at the data. Of course I want to compare the Dem-controlled district turnout in BG states with Rep-controlled districts. That could show any oddities in counting.
Forgive the overlong post. Got a lot of thoughts on this subject. :)
I think we have probable cause to investigate.
Yes, there are the Truthers, Birthers and Deniers but now we have the “Counters”.
Why should we settle for less when so much is at stake?
