I dislike the RINO’s as much as anybody, but David Frum at least was right in his Washington Post article today: We need to refocus the RNC’s resources on winning Republican Senate seats. Most of the people where I work are Democrats who’ve proudly informed me and other Republicans of their plans if they make big Senate gains, and if the Dems get close to 60 seats in the Senate, they’d essentially have a one-party dictatorship— even worse, they’d rig the system to shut down the conservative movement for good. Here are some of the things that would be on tap for us if the Dems were to win so many Senate races:
1. Full statehood for Washington, D.C. as well as Guam, which would provide 6 more guaranteed Electoral College votes for Dems, as well as 4 more Senators and 2 more Congressional representatives.
2. Full amnesty for illegal immigrants who would be granted immediate voting rights. The entire Southwest would then be almost as Democratic as New England— even Texas, Arizona and Florida would become Democratic strongholds, making it virtually impossible for a Republican to win again.
3. Mass censorship of conservative news sources.
All this on top of the wave of mass socialism that the Dems would unleash.
We cannot, I repeat, *cannot* allow the Dems to get a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate. Furthermore, we should restore the old filibuster rules in the Senate that require a 2/3 majority of Senators to cloture a filibuster (rather than just 60%, as it currently stands).
I know this may sound like a surrender to some people in the POTUS campaign, but it isn’t— it’s nothing more than a tactical retreat, which is *not* a surrender. The most successful armies in the past have known when to beat a tactical retreat, since this allows them to retain some strongholds and regroup to fight another day. If we fail to beat a tactical retreat now, then we’d be like the British at Yorktown— trapped, with no ability to fight back.
Concentrate on the Senate. We’ll retain the seats in Kentucky, Georgia, Mississippi, we’ll gain Louisiana, we’ll hold onto New Hampshire and Oregon if we just focus our resources there. That’s where the real battle is!
Sorry, I disagree completely.
First, surrendering is for Democrats (which is waht Frum is)
Second, If the Dems rule without limits it will hurt them far more and far quicker than us. As Clinton hinted, too many people are buying into a fairy tale. The sooner American realize that, the better. Enough of the “limit the damage stratgey.” Let them burn the house down so we can rebuild it.
As Joe Biden would say, Gird your loins! ROFLMAO! Stand up for Joe! Gawd Luv Ya!
Not at all, are you daft?
Frum has embraced the Obamao, and now he is your source of political thought?
Absurd!
