True enough.
I always blamed Perot and my friends who went for him. As the full truth about Clinton began to come out, and it became undeniably clear what kind of man he was, I was sure he had no chance for re-election without Perot's help.
Until election night in 1996, I was standing in line waiting my turn, and I took a good look at the people I was in line with. Thats when it suddenly hit me, we are toast. There is a portion of our population that is impermeable, unreachable, uninterested in classic liberal, conservative, constitutional principle. And if the Dems manage to mobilize them all on a given night, we have no chance.
It was fear of a repeat that mobilized all of our people to turn out in 2000 and 2004. I hope we are as scared in 2006 and 2008 or we will be steamrolled again.
Yeah, I'm nervous.
If the posts on FR are a true indication, I am terrified for the future of our country.
