Why Democrats are winning, Republicans are losing
Fox ^ | 6/24/14 | Cal Thomas

**SNIP**

Democrats have convictions. They know what to do with power when they get it and how to isolate, even punish, any member of their party who dares to take a different position on an issue.

Republicans seem to constantly react to the policies of Democrats or slam each other instead of making a case for the superiority of their ideas. It doesn’t help Republicans that they lack the Democrats’ uniformity.

RATS at least pretend to like their own base.

I’m sure this is highly selective editing... Cal can’t stand democrats and he’s never been one to praise thugs...

RATS have taken cheating to an art form.

Frankly, the whole essay had me asking myself, does Cal Thomas even understand that the GOP is at war with its own base?

It’s a simple principle of universal suffrage. Once the people figure out they can vote largess for themselves from the public treasury, they do. A majority will ALWAYS vote for the party or individual who promises the most giveaways.

... We are approaching a one party system here in America. There will soon be one party rule and the rest of the minor parties .... including the remaining fractured pieces of the GOP and Conservatives, will only be given lip service and included in the government as a mere formality to appease the old guard.

They’re winning because on websites like this, you are required to pray for Ted Kennedy or get banned. This is a fight TO THE DEATH. You do not pray for Adolph Hitler, Bin Laden, or Kennedy in a fight to the death. We are pussies who do not hate enough.

I think we’ve been there already, for the better part of the last two years.

I think that’s been true since before I was born (1967) though only widely recognized in the last 10 years or so.

Marxists want absolute power and are willing to do anything to get it, including subvert their own country, Constitution, laws, free press and speech, misuse law enforcement, aid our enemies and betray our friends, and lie like the psychopaths that they are.

Otherwise, they are nice to talk to at cocktail parties, before the Night of the Long Knives begins.

The GOP establishment members are feckless, backstabbing scumbags. This IS the primary problem the Republican party must deal with.

Another reason that the commie ‘RATS are winning is because the ‘RATS DON’T “REACH ACROSS THE AISLE” or ever compromise. That’s a dumbass Republican stunt.

"I think we’ve been there already, for the better part of the last two years."

.... Yup ..... I think we have finally reached the point of no return. The political pendulum has been swinging back and forth over the history of the country. But unfortunately lately .... the "Point of Suspension" has been moving America with great speed to the left away from her strength, might and power..... and away from the constitution ...... taking the whole of America with it.

President Obama’s approval ratings continue to plummet

Yes, and there is a strong possibility that the GOP will take the Senate. So why does Cal think the Democrats are winning?
