I’m going to start carrying pikes disguised as teepee poles in my pickup truck in case I accidently run into a peaceful far-left liberal riot.

Them long green ones they sell at the nursery for saplings are already sharp, long and stout, and legal.

“”Everyone should interpret that to mean Democrats are out for blood, literally.””

Yes, but.... communists are always out for blood, literally. When are they ever not? Even when they’re in the losing seat, they will stop at nothing to get back into power. Our biggest mistake would be to underestimate them, our enemy, literally.

“1998 after Democrats figured out how to harvest ballots”

I question everything about an article when a stupid statement is made. In school in the ‘50s I read about ballot harvesting...but not by that name. Starting in 1964 I saw up close and personal ballot harvesting in the near NW side of Chicago. Again in local races in 1965 and many elections after that.

We called it impersonation and other terms... voting in the name of a dead person, voting in the name of of mover, voting in the name of the apathetic. It wasn’t until motor-voter that there was impersonation of a non-citizen. It was the way motor-voter was implemented by FEC/HAVA that so many non-citzens were place on the voter rolls and available for impersonation.

“Contract with America” framework to win over people

History, Yes, Gingrich played a role. But the primary role was the religious right pro-lifers who registered to vote millions of people who had not previously participated in the electoral process because they did not want to be involved in such a dirty activity.

Those voters never voted prior to ‘94. The US Senate sold them out in ‘95-96 and they did not vote in ‘96. The #1 goal of Karl Rove was to convince enough of them to vote in 2000 that Bush jr could win, which Rove did succeed in doing.

“When was this supposed time when they were playing by the rules?”

They’ve been playing Calvinball, which involves spontaneous rules that are never the same twice. Of course establishment GOP and media never call them on it.
