I agree the Party is in the crapper right now. GWB learned from his father’s mistake about raising taxes. But he failed miserably on the spending side of the equation and he had plenty of accomplices and enablers among big spending Congressional Republicans.
Perhaps it is God’s will that we’re being punished for this breach of dicipline and failure to govern efficiently and prudently.
But those who suggest that the Party is dead and buried need stop smoking crack. Only the GOP reinvigorated by its conservative base stands any chance of reversing Obamuism. The Libertarian and American Independent Parties aren’t going any where. We have to make due with what we have. Conservative took control of the GOP is the key. It has been done before (1964, 1980, 1994) and must be done again. These minor little third parties have no future and are going no where. They only serve to distract from the work that needs to be done.
You keep telling yourself that, as tens of thousands have kicked the doors off the GOP big gov house, and left the damn building. The rancid stench alone drove many out.
