Murphy doesn't get it. We are a conservative country. I don't think the GOP goes after white voters. When the GOP talks about tax cuts (it's for everyone), job creation (for everyone). This has been needs to realize they nominated his boy who appealed to everyone and lost. Lost bad.

They are GOP embedded libtards. Since when does the color of ones skin make one’s problems any different from anyone else.

On the one hand he says the GOP needs to appeal to Latinos and on the other hand he says it needs to support gay marriage.

Does he think the consensus in the Latino community is to legalize gay marriage?

Does he really think that?

And people pay him money?

and to support practical immigration reform to win more of the Latino vote, Murphy suggests

Yeah, that's sure worked up to now, hasn't it?

"The demographics are changing in a way that is deadly for the Republican Party as it exists today. A GOP ice age is on the way."

This guy doesn't know what the hell he is talking about. Most people are generally conservative, regardless of culture, or anything else. That's what made Reagan so appealing, because he knew this and knew how to tap into it, especially since the Democrat Party has pretty much all but abandoned any semblance of conservative principles and ideas. The reason the Republican Party is wavering is because pinheads like this have it exactly backwards.

That said, one can not underestimate the manipulative power of the media, for many reasons. They are the real enemy here, and the force to be reckoned with. Again though, one could learn more than a thing or two from Reagan regarding this, something these pinhead consultants should pay a little attention to if they were really worth the money.....

You mean Mike Murphy, longtime McCain adviser and MSNBC political commentator? Yeah he's the one to guide the GOP back to power!

Obama opposed gay marriage, and young moron Millenials supported him en masse. Murphy's stance doesn't hold up to simple logic. McCain lost because of a once-in-a century economic anomaly, nothing more. Had the Dow been 14,000 on election day, John S. McCain would be now President of the United States.

the mistake Obamaniacs now make it that his election somehow represents a broad mandate for their ideas. this is NOT the case, and is borne out by Obama's total reversals on detainee photos, DOMA and DADT, his defeat in Congress on Gitmo, and his healthcare and cap-and-trade bills stalling like a Cuban Studebaker.

GOP "stalwarts" just don't get it. Obama is NOT invincile. We just need to be Conservative for REAL.

But they all knew he was lying.
