Read it, remember it, re read it the day after the election.

That was great and I hope the wave is as big as you say.

I agree this could be a wave election for Republicans. But breaking the liberal bubble? We’re electing Romney. He’s a progressive as I define progressive—a politician for whom every problem elicits a government solution, probably a federal one.

No, Romney is not nearly as bad as Obama, who might be characterized as a vicious progressive. But America is not voting for small-government conservatism because none are on the ballot. Sadly, were one on the ballot, he or she would be defeated in a landslide.

This election (assuming we win it) is just the first step in a Hostile Takeover (to crib Matt Kibbe’s term) of the US Government. It will, hopefully stop thing from getting a lot worse, while small government conservatives continue to build our infrastructure and develop experienced small-government candidates for future races.

But the worst possible reaction to a Romney victory would be for conservatives to say, “whew, it’s OK now. I can relax. The liberal bubble has been destroyed.” It’s not OK and they cannot relax and the liberals will still be running things in D.C. That they will have R’s by their names and will not be as ugly a set of liberals does not change that.

I can feel the wave. But it’s a Republican wave. And that doesn’t mean a whole lot, except that Obama, Pelosi, and Reid’s wrecking ball gets turned off for four years.
