I understand that is the popular thought, but what if conventional wisdom is wrong. After Clinton was impeached who had a much more effective war room, we gained seats in both chambers and won the presidency. I win elections by doing what the experts says doesn’t work. People actually like it when the Party fights back.

[Alas Babylon!]

Actually, Bray, we lost seats in the 1998 Congressional elections. It wasn't a lot, and considering the all-out media effort to save Clinton (Just about a private matter; sex). Still, usually the opposition party picks UP seats in an off year election:

Leader
Newt Gingrich Dick Gephardt

Party
Republican Democratic

Last election (1996)
227 seats 206 seats

Seats won 1998
223 211

Seat change
Decrease 4 Increase 5

Popular vote
32,237,964 31,490,298

2000

Leader
Dennis Hastert Dick Gephardt

Party
Republican Democratic

Seats won in 2000
221 212

Seat change
Decrease 2 Increase 1

Popular vote
46,992,383 46,582,167

No question!

Usually that's the case. And 99% of the time you are the gold standard in political wisdom.But, here we are fighting a phony charge of racism that we have never overcome. We both know just how much the left has successfully used the race card over and over and over and at the very least always gotten us to back down.

There's a reason for this.

They have perpetuated a dems love blacks con game since LBJ in the 60's and we have never countered it.Dems have always been able to buy their votes through various welfare BS projects and largely through labeling us as racists or more recently at the very least closet racists. Truth is right now the dems are on the ropes with blacks unions,Jewish votes, and others of their stripe having successfully self destructed which is their mo every time if we just leave them alone.

Blacks are outraged that zero seems to be favoring Hispanics with more free stuff than they ever got and with the thought that the few who work will now be displaced by Hispanics working for less.

Jews are upset about how zero keeps dissing Israel.

Unions have huge problems with zero from zero care to the pipeline jobs to coal you name it they are not happy.

None of this invigorates the lefttard base.

we need to keep it that way not stir up the pot so they get invigorated which is the only way we lose. We need to keep our eye on the 2014 ball. Its key to stopping the communist takeover of the country.
