Isn't it interesting how the primary variable in American politics is the Republican turnout? Liberals like to think of conservatives as a kind of unthinking borg but it's really the opposite. Sometimes conservatives stay home, sometimes they crawl over broken glass for the Republicans, sometimes they do things like vote for Ross Perot. It's the Democrat zombie army that trudges to the polls year after year like clockwork.
Seems like that's a serious slam against the Republicans.
