Funny reading this now, considering how just two short years ago we were reading everywhere about the ‘death of conservatism’, realignment, ect, ect, ect. In 2004 we were hearing about the death of democrats and liberalism, realignment, ect, ect, ect.....
A month ago the republicans one a historic Congressional election, and 0bama is on the ropes. Two years from now, republicans could take control of the Senate and win the presidency, with the right candidate (I have no idea who that is at this point). We are in very fluid political times.
Things are very much up in the air.
That's unquestionably true. I still haven't seen a thoroughly compelling reason or explanation why that is, but it is.
Perhaps the ubiquity of the internet has allowed the opposition (to whomever is in power) coalesce more easily and effectively.
All these articles are just political trash. These guys make their living writing the same stuff over and over. I remember when GWM won his wnd term. The MSM espcically Chrissy Matthews was all talking about how the Democrats needed to learn to not be the party aganist religion (you know quit making fun of middle country people) and he even said is the Democratic Party just going to be known as the party of abortion? It went on for quite awhile how the Democrats needed to learn how to understand and talk about faith etc. That idea did NOT sink in.
