“the GOP may have to go through the purifying ritual of cataclysmic electoral defeat.”
If Obama secures the nomination (looking more and more inevitable) I don’t see how McCain can possibly win, regardless of what conservatives do. The “cataclysmic electoral defeat” is almost a certainty, the subsequent “purifying ritual” - we’ll see if that can happen.
You are absolutely correct. It took Carter to open America’s eyes and elect Reagan. This is not the end when we lose. (the GOP WILL lose this one in a big way.)
It is only another beginning in our rebuilding process. Anything the Democrats do can be undone. We can also lobby our hearts out and make so much noise, they will have great difficulty in getting any legislation passed that will stop us.
Now is the time to stand up and fight for what we believe, not cower in the corner and vote for Juan McEvil because some of us are cowards and “FEAR” the Democrats.
On the contrary. Even though my old combat unit was greatly out numbered, we won all of our battles because the enemy feared our great determination and resolve.
The enemy could not understand our unit citation (Emblem of the 101st Airborne) because they had never seen eagles before, so they called us “Chicken Men”. And to them, that meant great respect and fear. Their saying was, “Never fight the Chicken Men, you can’t win against them.”
The Democrats are spineless and lack all moral direction. They are easily defeated by the strong and courageous.
