Yes, the Repubs have some issues, but the “problem” is with the electorate, not the party. We have become “a nation of takers” (Google it) and those “takers” voted against the ones they thought were going to take away their sugar. 9M people on SSDI, 48M people on SNAP, countless still milking UE benefits, the fastest growing demographic are “the takers”.
So the cultural divide is really based upon the 47% that get government goodies. There is virtually no way they will vote for a candidate that pledges to address these issues. Peel off a couple of young liberal women with the abortion issue and the Bamster gets elected.
Someone on the NRO twitter feed last night wrote what politician is going to run on getting budget and entitlement issues under control? Only a fool would go back there.
And we know where this all leads, economic stagnation and possible financial catastrophe are in our future.

So true
