Could it have been votor fraud?

[BARLF]

No, it’s all Bush’s fault. The most hated man in all the world is Bush and everything is bad that happens is Bush’s fault. /S

Could it have been votor fraud?

Perhaps you mean defraud. As in the gop has been attempting to defraud the people out of their votes by pretending to be something they are not.

Rush has a point, the gop has dove to the left and conceded terrain that the dnc is making a calculated effort to seize.

The right isn't losing because they are conservative while the country has gone left, they are losing because they are swinging away from what the people want and now some wily democrats are pretending to be what the republicans previously pretended to be.

And Le Théâtre de l'Absurde continues.

Not in this case.

Rush has been hysterical the last couple of days and I don’t mean in a comical way. He is blaming a lack of leadership for our (Conservatives’) problems when the real blame is much wider. George W. Bush and his father have always represented the middle ground in the Republican Party and were a compromise (of sorts) between the old remnants of the Moderate Rockefeller/Nixon/Ford wing of the party and the Goldwater/Reagan Conservatives.

Much of the criticism of W. Bush echoes the criticism of Reagan at the end of his second term. We as Conservatives haven’t done the job to elect Conservatives and it shows when a McCain is nominated. We’ve had better choices and we have failed. Fred Thompson, Duncan Hunter, Pete DuPont, Steve Forbes, and even Jack Kemp had better credentials than the men that won the nominations. Are many so-called self-described Conservatives really closet Moderates? Do we have true thinking Conservatives cutting off their own noses to spit their own faces by voting for moderates?

Any Conservative that votes for a democrat that supports the national democrat party with some mistaken idea that by doing so he will advance Conservative principles is a Fool. We need as many true Conservatives as we can get in Congress to roadblock any irreversible progress by the left in the next two years. There are no Conservative democrats left running for congress and the idea that Woody Jenkins and the fellow in Mississippi are less Conservative than the democrats is just plain stupid.

For one of those seats lost, the Republican was running as a Liberal, and the Democrat was running as a Conservative. The outcome should be enlightening.
