There are plenty of candidates running for Congress we can give time and money to.
“. The Republicans will be entering the race with a 72 year old Senator, despised by large swathes of his own base, sluggishly propelled by a divided and deeply demoralized GOP electorate that is likely to produce an anemic campaign war chest.
By contrast, the Democrats, feverishly enthusiastic and rabid for change, will enter flush with cash, and led by either the Nations first woman nominee - backed by her husbands famously formidable political machine or the Nations first black nominee - a hollow but undeniably charismatic candidate.”
Truer words have never been spoken.
Don’t forget your English/Spanish dictionary.
Isn't McLame perfect to be the face of the GOP?
A sickly old man?
If there is any silver lining, it is that McCain will forever be credited with the destruction of the Republican party, and the final defeat of Consvertism in the United States. He will cherish that dishonor to his dying day, although future generations will curse him for it.
You’ll forgive me if I fight on right? LOL
My God, I guess we only feel good about our beliefs if we are winning all the time?
Screw that.
The battle is for LIFE!
Never give up.
Repeal the 17th Amendment. This is not rocket scence.
It makes me long for the days when Bob Dole was the GOP nominee.
FRee at last, FRee at last, thank God almighty I’m FRee at last.
Eight years of defending Bush, six months of agonizing over conservative credentials, six days of carrying Romney on a chariot....
Now I can know that I tried. I can look my children in the eye, I can talk to my ancestors (yes I do that) and vow to carry on the fight for freedom at the local level.
I am joining my neighborhood’s court-watch, and that is my next step...
romney would have lost the general election with an even greater defeat than what we’ve seen today. Face the facts; he is not electable. Even if mccain does lose the general, it would be less humiliating than the total wipeout we’d get with Romney. We would be able to recover from it after 4 years.
D-Day: War’s over, man. McCain dropped the big one.
Bluto: Over? Did you say “over”? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!
Otter: Germans?
Boon: Forget it, he’s rolling.
Bluto: And it ain’t over now. ‘Cause when the goin’ gets tough...
[thinks hard]
Bluto: the tough get goin’! Who’s with me? Let’s go!
[runs out, alone; then returns]
Bluto: What the hell happened to the Conservatives I used to know? Where’s the spirit? Where’s the guts, huh? “Ooh, we’re afraid to go with you Bluto, we might get in trouble.” Well just kiss my ass from now on! Not me! I’m not gonna take this. McCain, he’s a dead man! Hillary, dead! Obama...
Otter: Dead! Bluto’s right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now we could do it with conventional weapons that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody’s part.
Bluto: We’re just the guys to do it.
D-Day: Let’s do it.
Bluto: LET’S DO IT!
Later today, I expect the market to open -500 on the DJIA, and then REALLY go down.
And that is putting it mildly.
GOP...RIP
There’s no silver lining in any of this. It’s going to be ugly in November for the GOP.
A reason the GOP is doing so bad is Bush’s unpopularity. Bush has been a millstone around the GOP label.
This has been weighing on my mind. With the politicians in power, and the prospect of this presidential election, AND the DC case before the supreme court; I can't think of a better time to look into buying an AR15 or similar firearm if you ever thought about getting one....
Will it be the Clintons or Obama? The GOP will face either Isflam or Islam, unless Obama really did commit apostasy (in the view of radical Islamists).
There is still some hope for Romney but not much. In an earlier post on another thread, I said it was time to retool the Republican Party. But not until we strive for Romney as hard as possible. McCain has to be discredited. Huckabee-lovers have to be shown how innane their candidate is too.
"These are the days of our great lament. The land thirsts.
A great plague infests our Congress.
They say that strife has made us weak.
That we have become empty.
They say that we rot.
But, we are strong. We are a people of destiny."
