THis may be a very interesting election. Now that Dems hold the Senate/Congress and threaten the WH, we will see if they have any meaningful pull with the country at large. It may turn out that the people become more frightened by the prospects of Dem control than Pubby mediocrity. We will see. Taking a look at LA, one has to conclude that the DEM/MSM PR push to blame Bush for Katrina didn’t work, even with the ignorant masses of NO. Funny how that turned out. Even ignorant people are able to differentiate between Sh*t and shinola. Remember, DEM/MSM invested a lot of capital (both moral and financial) into that PR campaign.

“Well for a “failed” party, an awful lot of them continue to get elected.”

And what a dismal collection of hacks and frauds they are, too.

The government junkies continue to vote for them. They want some of that “free” government money the Democrats are always promising.

Yes they do but not without their well planted deception and toooo many "BIG TENT" less than conservative Republicans. There are some exceptions but the majority of Republicans took up the mantle of liberalism in the name of being compassionate.

If you think that’s the case now, you ain’t seen nuthin’ yet!!! The DNC’s “Fifty State Plan” will bring on massive voter and voting fraud in 2008.

For some reason the author, just like the present administration, has seen fit to ignore this important aspect of the coming election.

That was my thought as well.

Then it occurred to me: The level of knowledge and understanding of American voters is generally very low. The Dems have failed, but many voters just don't know it.

For most US citizens, the socialist appeal of: vote for me and I will get you someone else's money, and also get someone to pay for your medical bills, will trump the conservative opposition. - tom

For now.

Look at what it takes to get them elected now as opposed to 30 years ago. Today's Democrat has to pander to every nut case out there and continually try to offer ever more difficult to implant and sustain social welfare programs. There is no fundament consistent theory of liberalism. That has long ago given way to trying to appease the numerous special inerests groups. Like a giant ponzi scheme sooner or later it all collapses.

This applies to the Republican party as well. Recently, the GOP has started to back off its conservative principals in favor of appealing to special interest groups. The recent immigration bill debacle illustrates this point. No true conservative can be in favor of illegal immigration, but many so-called conservative leaders attempted to cram it down our throats in an attempt to appease big business and other special interest groups.

Yes, and actually it is the GOP which is the Stupid Party and the Dems who are the Evil Party. The Dems are not stupid just horridly wrong and evil in their policies. The GOP will not unite to beat the Hildabeast and get some lower ticket GOPers elected. They take stances that offend the BASE. Now that is stupid.
