Susan In-The-Tank-For-Obama might have a valid point here.
"Imagine how different things might be right now if there were a Republican Party. I mean a party like the one led by Ronald Reagan, George Bush or Newt Gingrich; a party with a program, a single set of talking points, and the technological and communications advantages to get their message across......"

George Bush? Conservative?
BTW, where is Newt and what opposition is he leading; he doesn’t seem to be up front and center speaking out publicly about what’s really going down; like the country???
P I N G
:D
Just a thought.......LOL!
Why is Susan Estrich so concerned about the Governor of Alaska? Or the Governor of Louisiana? These people have their own jobs to do.
When one party controls the Presidency and both houses of Congress, it is only natural that the opposition will not have a defined leader until a the next Presidential primary season is well underway. We’ll pick our leader in 2012.
I am convinced that Susan Estrich and the rest of the Left wants a designated leader for Republicans so they can get busy with the demonization and personal attacks. Making arguments on the merits is a losing game for them, so they would much rather attack Rush Limbaugh’s waistline, Sarah Palin’s hairstyle or Bobby Jindal’s accent.
So it is probably just as well that we don’t have a leader, for the time being. If that means that commentators, such as Susan Estrich, will have to make reasoned arguments instead of just ad-hominem attacks on our “leader”, I can live with that.
—been without a leader or even very effective followers for nearly four years—
I have wondered the same thing! Newt is usually on every talk show available, and lately he’s been AWOL!

Bingo. They are awfully concerned about our well-being, all of a sudden, aren’t they?
It was the first Bush who started the slide and Gingrich turned out to be a flake.
I know ... and knowing Susan Estrich, the pureblood, broken glass Democrat through and through, I think maybe she’s trying to help demoralize Pubbies, as if her party’s doing so great .. LOL.
We won’t let that happen. There will be hope on the horizon .. I don’t know when or from whom, but this type of radical dismantlement of traditions and conventions always results in the pendulum swinging back. Soon, I deeply hope. God be with us and bless the patriots we don’t even yet know who will lead traditional conservatives with integrity.
Can't be too far behind Sean Hannity.
This bimbo, unfortumately, is right. The next two elections should be a walk-off for the Republicans, given the Obama/Reid/Pelosi performance so far.
I still don’t know the Republicans’ message. Is it “we belong to better country clubs than the Democrat elites?
I do know the Democrats - socialism and government control.
Where is the new Contract With America? Where are the three Reagan princilples?
Sadly, John McCain is still the voice of the Republicans.
The Republicans are too busy kissing the asses of all those illegal aliens from Mexico!
Where is Newt?
Ann Coulter has more cajones!
I don’t agree with her because I have heard the same rant a couple of times lately. They just want you to believe we are dying and talk radio is dying.
Don’t buy it for a second. This is just PR magic from the Lefties.

Very true. The Obama campaign had everything it it's favor - money, unpopular opposing president, weak candidate, etc - and got a whopping 53%. They won, but not by a significant margin. This country is still divided nearly 50/50, as it has been. The Dems are going to try to keep the majority by acting like they are the big winners and the GOP very unpopular just to get the 'me too' voters. It may work since the right is devoid of any significant leaders.
If you haven’t gotten Mark Levin’s new book; do. It will answer a lot of questions.
The sad thing is....I haven’t heard ANY real voices from the republicans speaking out and protesting the shenanigans that have been coming down like we used to. That is why when I read this article, it made me wonder if the old hag was maybe at least stumbling on to a truth.
Where IS our outrage? Anybody....anybody....
Beck, Rush and Hannity (no matter what you think of them) can’t do it alone. We need representation who will stand tall and brave it out. Or we lose...again!
