Where there's life, there's always hope.
Where things are merely prospective, they aren't inevitable.
I didn't think politics were going to save us. We are too far gone for that.
Only repentance and turning back toward God will save our country.
But where there is still time, there can still be a turning away from sin, and hence, disaster.
Thus, even if it gave us only a few more years before looming catastrophe, we might have made use of that time, we might have avoided complete collapse. Or not! We may have run out of time, anyway.
But I'd rather have more of a chance than less of a chance.
Now, disaster will not be avoided. As the movie said, there will be blood.
And lots of it.
“Field a romney and loose. You have been warned.”
I didn't field a Romney. I voted otherwise in the primaries. But once he was the nominee, it became pretty clear: possible, even likely long-term catastrophe with Romney; unavoidable, relatively short-term catastrophe with the Kenyan.
As well, there is the matter of degrees. The fall will be far harder, far more damaging, far more difficult from which to recover with the Kenyan than with Mr. Romney.
With a President Romney, the loss of our mediating institutions - our schools, our hospitals, etc., was a possibility, some time in the future, avoidable. With the anti-Christ, these things will be on us in short order. With a President Romney, actual jailing and possible exterminations of Christians, especially Catholics, for the practice of the faith, was a long-term possibility. Now it is almost unavoidable, and sooner rather than later.
At this time, even if the vast majority of Americans repented of our crimes, it is too late. Disaster looms.

There is always hope, both practical and supernatural. The new avenue of hope opens with Romney’s defeat: a chance for the GOP machine to fix its primaries process, for the GOP policy wonks to re-wonk conservatism and to give credibility, tactical support and polish to the Tea Party, and to re-engage the voting public with something better than what-to-do-with-that-upper-tax-bracket there-are-no-abortion-laws-that-I-will-change candidates.
Waiting for a few more years before the deck goes vertical is not a hope, it is foolishness. Time to act is now. Here’s a realistic goal: take the Senate in 2014 (20 Dem seats in play, several in red states), when there is no romney to get in the way.
