It may be 1776 soon. That’s the rumblings I’m hearing.
I have been thinking 1968, only the roles are reversed. The candidate talking anti-war got elected ‘now’ and ‘later’.
Hillary will challenge BHO in 2012.
He’s in over his head now. Two years from now will be a good Republican year.

I hear ya!
I believe it will be a lot like the late 70’s, we already have had the gas lines and we will all be wearing sweaters. I am looking forward to the 80’s already.
"Where is my Reagan? Don't say it's John McCain. Where have all the conservatives gone?"
More like 1861.
I’m up for that!
w00t! Mullets all around!
Me too. :)
The novelty of a black president will soon wear off.
I hope you're right. I fear those rumblings sound like 1861.
I see obama and the democrats raising taxes on the “evil” corporations, and as those taxes always get passed on to us, I see a period of inflation.
I remember Carter and the inflation that his policies brought about. It was my first year of marriage, and we had no cash. It was tough going to the grocery store and seeing prices rise every week.
What are the best casual defences that one can take against inflation on a daily basis? Buy stuff now, before the price rises? What will rise with obama’s priorities, besides energy? I fully expect my electric bill to go through the roof.
Look if they push the fairness doctrine through, you might not know what is going on. The MSM will not report bad things on Obama and The democratic congress. They are in the tank for them!
I was 18 that year, voting in my first Presidential election in my freshman year in college, and cast an absentee ballot for Jerry Ford. I recall working at our campus radio station the night Carter was elected, as we got the news on yellow tractor paper freshly spit out of a giant, four-foot tall UPI teletype machine.
I ripped off the sheet and brought it over to the news desk, and distinctly recall thinking: "Oh, well. It's a fresh start for the country".
Yeah, that worked out well.
Does that mean that in a few years, we’ll have another Reagan, and hair metal, ripped jeans and big hair all make a comeback?
Please make it so!!! That would rock!
I agree but we will recover and fight on.. conservatives have to rebuild over the next few years. I believe we have some up and coming leadership with Jindal and Palin.
I hope you’re right. I fear those rumblings sound like 1861
