I'm biding my time on that one. For my own part, I'm interested in seeing how many "independent activists" donate their time and money to push McRINO through. My guess is that it'll be none. And I know that no self-respecting conservatives will be shilling for that liberal Democrat who's going to be running on the Republican ticket. All told, I suspect it's going to be a large no-show for McCain in November.
And then we'll be seeing those liberals and RINOs purged en masse with their "big tent" poles shoved up where the sun never shines. Roundabout that time we'll see the GOP rediscover its moral compass in time to retake Congress in 2010.
“Roundabout that time we’ll see the GOP rediscover its moral compass in time to retake Congress in 2010.”
You’ve reiterated the conservative conventional “wisdom” of course. And it’s possible this scenario will play out as you stated it. After all, the voters elected a Republican congress in ‘94, right?
However, as you no doubt know, the electorate re-elected Bill Clinton in ‘96, over Dole, even after living through fours years of Clinton’s first term, and even after witnessing the implementation of a major portion of the Contract With America.
I’m not at all confident Republicans can pull it off a second time. We’ll see.
