Or, the GOP could have just elected a REAL conservative candidate, like McLame accidentally stumbled on for VP.
The reason we lost is that our side is fractured and hopeless. Just look at recent posts with respect to energy. What insanity it is to see self-ascribed conservatives posting on FR about “alternative energy” sources. There is nothing more liberal than the thought that oil, one of the main reasons the USA is a great nation, is being chastised and blamed as one of the biggest problems in America. These “conservatives” want to eliminate oil altogether! UNREAL!!
Wonderful post, Ron, and a fine analysis of what modern media has done to take liberty, rather than enable it.
Loved the history, too.
