The world is crashing in on the GOP? Maybe not. (Vanity)

I remember back in 1976, after Watergate destroyed Nixon, and the Peanut Man Jimmuh Carter won the election, every lefty political pundit was writing about how the Republican Party was finished, it was over for them, the Dems would rule for generations.

Then, of course, just 4 years later in the 1980 election, Ronald Reagan, our most recent (but definitely not the last) conservative president destroyed Carter, carrying 44 states. And in 1984, it was an even biggest defeat for the socialists with Reagan winning, hold on to your hat, 49 states! Only Walter Mondale's home state of Minnesota, and D.C., went into his column that year. Even Commiefornia and Taxechusetts voted for The Gipper in 1984.

Now, again, the smirking political writers, like Gail Collins of the NY Times, and the leftists writing for the WAPO and LA Times are high fiving each other, certain that the GOP, and more importantly Conservatism, is dead. But it always seems that just when the libs think they have final victory in hand, their dream falls apart.

I predict they are going to be in for a well-deserved shock November of next year. And Ted Cruz will enhance that state of shock, in 2016.

Spare your snark for someone who cares.


Wow, having a bad day or can’t find your thinking cap? Sometimes it is painful to think.......................

We all want magic bullets to problems but sorry, they don’t exist. Why, because of the nature of man.

The Framers accounted for man’s nature.

You’re too stupid to recognize your ignorance.

Ciao’ clown.

More likely, he doesn’t care one way or the other about you.
