If you say so. I disagree.

Here's the problem.

We choose public officials by election. Elections between two candidates are determined by majority vote.

Your point of view represents no more than 35% of the people, probably less (22%-27% would be my best guess).

You can have a Republican landslide only by winning significant numbers of uncommitted voters who are usually also stupid and lazy.

Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan both were masters at doing this.

The Rovian "stimulate the base" plan worked up to a point.

However, the stimulated base has now terrified or repelled (or both) a large group of centrist and center-right voters who will not vote for a base candidate under any circumstances.

I like the letter and agree with the author on many points.

However, common sense would dictate that most of the loaf of bread is better than no slice at all.

I think the letter is a great goal that all Republicans and Conservatives should work towards.

As things shape up in the near future (08) if Hellary wins then the United States as we have known it for the last 200 plus years will soon cease to exist soon after her inauguration.

She has repeatedly said for the last 40 plus years she want to redistribute the wealth and that America is a global village.

Hellary is a follower of communist and socialist thinking for all of those years.

Hellary's hero's have left their black marks of socialism all over the pages of history.

All those hard noses will rue the day that they in essence turned their backs on this great country over pride.

America is at a crossroads just as England was at the same crossroads 50 years ago.

England capitulated to European thinking and gave up her place at the table of world powers.

She opened up her borders and denigrated her populations with the scum of the earth and self identified haters of anything non Muslim.

I believe the Democrat Party, Hellary, Al Gore Envirowhacko's and George Soros liberals are on the same path of self destruction as followed by their mentors in 1940's,50's, 60's and 70's England.

All of this liberalism (crap) (if I may borrow a Osama Obama term) has a high price to pay in the long run.

One way or the other our grandchildren will be the ultimate payers for the next election.

God help us if Hellary is elected but run and hide, seek shelter in a dark cave if Obama becomes El Presidente.
