The people are fickle. Once they get tired of one group and their mantras they will turn to the new flavor of the month. In the future Old White Guys, who love Patriotism will be popular because they will seem new. People who —like Reagan—see things in black and white and not gray. Once the Democrats have trashed the state—and the pain is universal—people will try anything. They may even go for the man on the white horse—a Napoleon to fix things. So, America may swing far right. the nightmare the Democrats have imaged will come to pass.
I agree with the swinging pendulum political theory. Also that it will take pain to reverse its swing this time with the momentum built up from freebees. I know even if it meant not seeing liberals pay the price I would fight losing of our rights from the left or right. You do bring up an interesting point that when the SHTF voters might select a guy that promises to make the trains run on time, or revenge on whatever group can be blamed.
