I think that even the big bad boogieman of Acorn can only manufacture about 2% of the vote. To do more, they would need a huge mobilization which would attract too much attention.

The rats will win in their usual strongholds but will lose the rest of the country by too great a margin to tamper with.

If the rats try to impose ‘martial law’ or something similar after a national election loss, then that’s when the shootin’ starts.

Great post!

But what’s this about Republicans in 1951? Sounds like revisionist history to me.

I must have been channeling VDH this weekend! At a neighborhood BBQ I made these very same points - almost even in the same order.

All of these points have been made here over and over again. He may be channeling you.

“It is clear that the Democratic party intentions were to advance a domestic program as quickly and hugely as possible, and they have done so. However, the combination of a President entirely unversed in foreign (and especially military) policy and a Secretary of State nearly as uninformed has produced a ship of state with no one at the helm. It has given us a President who apparently regards photo opportunities and apology tours as foreign policy and a lickspittle press that does its part to foster the illusion.”

Well said. So, who is left to mind the ship? Foggy Bottom professionals. They survived 8 years obstructing Bush policies with different rigor, but with less public visibility than CIA rogues, and now they are free to do what they please. And that is a typical Leftist view that all grievances against America are warranted. I don’t know if I can hope that they have enough people who see themselves as representing America to the world first and not the world to America.

What do you think?

I think I don't want to end up on life support in a big city hospital with SEIU caretakers. Rather meet the enemy on more favorable ground.

Don’t be surprised when Obamunist lets Iraq go to hell to keep Bush from having a legacy of success while he fails in Afghanistan.

Remember how Vietnam became "Nixon's War" on January 20th of 1969? Quid pro quo, Iraq is Obama's War now.
