There as another path to the political cycle: We put conservatives (the adults) back in charge, they reset the private sector, shring and put the public sector back in check, economy starts ramping up again... booms, tax revenues rise... quickly, and then, almost on cue, the sainted “middle” puts the ‘rats, statists, progressives back in charge to deja-vu this cycle all over again.
The problem is driven by the Libtard Media. They are allowed to hound conservatives relentlessly on a daily basis over made up stories and innuendo. The lazy voters, or dumb masses, are just being manipulated like sheep and respond in kind.
The only hope, and I admit it's a slim chance at best, is for Conservatives to actively take the media to the woodshed through the Internet.
One feature of democracy, long noted, is its instability.
