I am one who will never wake up. McCain will do more damage to the party than Bush if he gets his agenda through. If the public wants Obama and socialism then let them experience what Western Europe is suffering from, the faster our public learns the hard way, the faster a conservative movement can take place.
Europe has been socialist for over a century. So be careful what you wish for. Also, for many people in Europe, socialism delivers what they consider a pleasant lifestyle ... we wouldn't .... but they ain't gonna change it. Their most "conservative" pols would be considered lefties here.
