Well you go right ahead and waste your time. In all these years of ‘reaching’ we have what to show? Wasted effort.

Screw reaching. Treat the enemy like the enemy.

I have to agree, a downfall without good bourbon would probably be worse..

The base kicked butt in ... 2014.

You're kidding. Have your forgotten about MS Thad, SC Lindsey, TX Cornball, Lamar!, KY's McC.

“But again, the main purpose of this story, subtle message to the Republican Party, “You better abandon your base.”

Don’t know why the R’s need any help from Gallup to do that.

Just yesterday I was comparing the downfall of Rome and the downfall of the USA.

one key distinction...instead of slavering hordes of Visigoths at the gates, our armed opponents will come at us from within, in the form of the military carrying out orders from the CIC...

Might never come to that, as the general populace seems to be adopting ‘corect’ attitudes regarding moral deviance and its celebration...

All you have to do is look to the Texas Legislature to know that the GOP has taken this message to heart.

Campus carry is dead, and open carry is 99.9% dead.

Oh, don’t worry, the Romans were pretty nasty to people within their own country, plenty of conspiracy and power struggles happened. Heck, Nero had his own mother killed for the sake of power. IMHO, the Romans refused to acknowledge themselves as defeatable from the outside until it was too late, they convinced themselves as to how great they were by how well they could bully their own.

The bitter clingers are the black agitators who are always bringing back the age of slavery in their discussions as well are hateful feminists who are still not satisfied with the 50 million babies that they have aborted, it is never enough for them.

I think that those millions of the conservative base that stayed home on 2008 and 2012 sent the message that Obama was the new messiah of the new age. They allowed the new messiah to grab all the power he wanted especially after the second time he was elected. If he had been defeated in 2008 or 2012 there would have been a very sobering tone on the nation. The Obama balloon would have popped and the idolatry would have ended. Everybody who voted for him and everybody who facilitated his presidency fed the hysteria of omnipotence that has grown especially after the second election. Give Caligula more power, what do you expect? Give Nero more power what do you expect?

If Obama had been defeated it would have been a slap in the face to all of his pretentions and all of his radical leftist ambitions. When he was elected TWICE—there was no stopping him. Anybody with 20/20 vision could see this.

About an errant nation that had gone astray, that is a perfect description of the Hebrew nation in the dessert. God did not give up on them, instead he let them wander in the dessert for forty years until they had learned their lesson. God willing we will come to our senses.

The party system began the undoing of the nation. What have we been doing for five generations? Checking off the box —Democrat or Republican. Is that the best we can do? Both of the parties are controlled from the top down by a few powerful people, it is the opposite of what America is supposed to be. We are supposed to be a grass roots nation where the power comes up from the people. The Tea Party is an effort by the people to get back their own political process.
