Think the author suffers from paranoia?
I can just see the girly man typing away with perfectly manicured nails while wearing his tinfoil hat.
No REAL man will vote for Hillary...period.
It has nothing to do with this nonsensical psycho-babble.

I will agree with him on one point: Several notorious scandals involving high profile Dims being exposed, will occur before next years elections.

Deranged, paranoid, projectionism.

projectionism.This is it exactly. They swear that WE are the dirty tricksters. Someone tell me, when was the last "dirty trick" the Republicans pulled? I am biased, I know, but all I can remember are things like the original "October Surprise", then the Bush DUI in 2000, and recently the FoleyGate scandal. The latter two were old news, held and then released specifically for maximum effect prior to the elections... When has "our side" done something dirty like that, or any dirty tricks?

This is a ham handed attempt at humor to hide the malicous attack machines of Mike Rogers and CREW.

The most half-baked, reverse-psychology, and totally-reliant-on-the-deficiencies-of-your-opponent plan ever cooked up in the history of the world, maybe.
There is the Stupid Party and the Evil Party. The Stupid Party wouldn’t be able to think up such a convoluted scheme, while the Evil Party is concocting similar ones all the time, but nothing on such a grand scale.
Rube Goldberg used to draw up all these elaborate inventions to do something that could be accomplished by walking across the room and making a simple gesture, like flicking on a light switch.

Well, our side didn’t forge Bush’s National Guard documents and air them on CBS back in 2004 (think: Dan Rather).
Nor did our side commit voter fraud by registering *thousands* of made-up people (think: ACORN).
It’s not our side “outing” closeted gay GOP’ers, either.

Do you think it better to let the rats out one at a time or should the GOP go for a big sweep?

The rats will keep outing their own in the GOP, while holding a double-standard for their own Party.
This is social darwinism. We grow stronger. Our herd is culled.
Their herd remains weak.

That’s my opinion, too. Cull ‘em now. No more October surprises.

"Several notorious scandals involving high profile Dims being exposed, will occur before next years elections." I doubt it.
The current batch of Republican have neither the brains, brawn or balls for the task..
The term "metro-sexual" was invented for Republican politicians.
I authorize you to remind me if I'm proved wrong....

There is high risk of extinction, if the current herd of Republicans is culled under realistic and meaningful criteria...

Let’s not forget the entirely bogus prosecution of Speaker DeLay that ran him out of Congress.
Dems have a lock on dirty tricks.

Whenever conservatives demand their elected representatives actually represent them, its called a “wedge issue.” I’m sick of it. Use of that word is probably the best single indicator of a moonbat with utter scorn for democracy.

It should be obvious to the Gay community just who their tormentors are. Mark Foley and Larry Craig were both known by their constituents to be homosexuals and were both voted into office multiple times. They both were brought down by their own self destructive behavior. Behavior that would not be tolerated if done by heterosexuals. If I ever encounter sexual activity by anybody when using a public restroom, I will holler to high heaven and make sure the management of the facility takes action or I will press charges myself. The Republicans have been open to Gays occupying elective office and being employed at various levels of government. It is the RATS who blackmail and taunt them just as they have done with other minorities who break from their socialist, liberal stranglehold.
