What makes you think we will win in 2012? Think about it, if the GOP runs on “getting the house in order, and smaller govt.” and the dems run on “freebies for all”, who do you think the huddled masses will vote for?

The chosen one will still get 114% of the holders peoples vote, 80% of the wall jumpers vote, and probably 70% of the student loan vote.

The dems will always get the moron vote, which I figure is at least 40% overall. The GOP will always get about the same from the common sense group.

We have to depend on the 20% of the “politics, what’s politics” group. That doesn’t inspire confidence in me...

Well, we're close to the tipping point. If there's enough people left in the country that care about getting the house in order for the sake of their children and grandchildren, then we have a shot. If not, then we don't.

If we are already past the tipping point, and the parasites have a numerical lock on the government, then it doesn't really matter either way, does it?

An astute observation. Having to rely on the +/- 20% of voters who give no thught whatsoever to to matters political is not necessarily a recipe for resounding victory.
