I am starting to think that free and fair elections will never happen again. With billions from the stimulus and now the GIVE Act the leftist groups will turn out to support Obama and the ‘Democrats’ like never before. The left media will never allow anything like the other side of the story to be aired. If the FCC enacts laws that destroy talk radio and who knows what they might do to the internet we will not be able to challenge them in the public square.
If this comes to pass Obama will not debate the GOP candidate, he will just dismiss the GOP as a fringe element.
Years of new programs and announcements, energy subsidies for the poor as O drives up the cost of electricity, govt buying cars for the poor, more food programs for the middle class as they drive up the price of food and on and on.
If talk radio is dismantled, its over. We are a one-party state with a fringe minority of ‘usurpers’. Just like a country called Zimbabwe. With ACORN writing the census and Dems redrawing districts it wouldn’t matter if we got 55% or 60% of the vote, we still wouldn’t get a House majority.
I remember when Democrats were winning most seats from Texas even with the GOP getting something like 57% of the statewide vote. The lines were drawn for them. Thankfully we had new lines drawn after the GOP won a bare majority, even though the Democrat members bolted to Oklahoma and then New Mexico to deny them a quorum.
I think that after the 2010 vote, it will become abundantly clear that we won’t get our free republic back without violence. That is my greatest fear but it sure seems headed in that direction.
