I am afraid that it is only going to get worse. The Dimocrats have not changed much during the last 20 years (since Carter). The Republicans have slid down into a morass of liberal thinking.
And this has happened because this is what the vast majority of the American people who go to the polls want. Those who do not vote don’t care. Those who do vote have decided they want socialism and so it is going to happen. And it is no more apparent then in the election of 2006 and the slate of Republican candidates in 2008.
Sad day coming I am afraid.
As to your comment “May God help us if Obama wins.”: If you haven’t noticed he has been annointed.
We still have some good guys. I haven't sat down and crunched numbers, but I'm making a big guess and saying we have just as many liberal Republicans as we always have had. We just had the unfortunate scenario of this nomination. And, unlike the "Democratic" party, we actually do honor people's votes and respect the wishes of the voters.
That being said, it will be a sad 4 years at the very least. And yes I have noticed he's been annointed! As a technophile, you don't know how frustrating it is for me to visit the tech sites I used to visit. That industry is almost completely in the tank for Obama. This, of course, comes after they've switched from being Paulistineans. Because, of course, Obama and Ron Paul have very similar beliefs...?
I dunno about that either. Seems to me that on the great issues of the day, illegals and energy exploration, there are vast bipartisan majorities that want the same thing, and it falls on deaf ears in Washington and the DBM. As long as all the candidates agree on something it never becomes an issue. Like Bush-Kerry. They would never discuss illegal aliens. Just never came up. A good old Skull & Bones agreement, is what I think.
