So true
After that, the world has 1,000 years of peace on earth. Evey man will sit under and tend to his own vine, and no man will be able to take it away from him.
The Dems and Libs will never go for this. Who would they take from?
Are you serious?
Talk about economic suicide. How many of us are willing to sell their house at a loss, quit their job, uproot the family and relocate to God knows what.
It wasn't always that way. I think the MSM sorts got together at some point and decided that it might be harmful if the Dim states continued to be illustrated as 'red' states.
Looks like it changed in 1992.
Highly doubt we can put it back together. The country was more cohesive in the 1960’s than it is now. And it’s only going to get worse. Both sides might as well be from totally different planets. There is no common ground whatsoever.
I refuse to bash Barone. He is still the premier voting analyst in America, bar none (little pun there).
Barone had a perfectly reasonable interpretation of the pre-election polls. He said "the fundamentals" were there for a Romney landslide.
And indeed, those fundamentals --the horrible economy primarily-- were there. If this were 30-40 years ago, Obama would've been out on his ass, just like Carter.
But some things have changed in America in the last 30-40 years, much worse than either we, or Michael Barone, realized ... until last night.

I think they’d go for it. In their minds, the only thing keeping them from hedonistic bliss, is us greedy, uptight, bible-thumping, knuckle-dragging, mouth breathing conservatives.
They have no concept of the idea that other people’s money actually comes from (wait for it)... other people. The rude awakening won’t come until after the divorce papers are signed.
We should offer them a sweetheart deal, giving in on almost every disputed piece of territory or other assets. (We can buy them back cheap from them for food, fuel and blankets, when they are cold and starving in a few years).
We've passed the tipping point, where the immoral outnumbers the moral, the pagans the God worshippers, the takers the producers. Decline is inevitable.
Thank-you, George, Ben, Thomas, John, and others who gave us so much. I'm glad you're not here to see what your unique nation and government has become.
Tribalism/globalism.
It changed on Election Night 2000, and willfully so by the Orwellian Newsspeak media with GOPers refusing to repudiate the false label. The irony of Conservatives exclaiming they want to paint America “Red”, well... that’s exactly what we got. Red is Communist.
I really didn't see the republican party that showed up and waited in line at chickfila decide to sit at home rather than vote for the future of the nation.
But he is right. The Obama voters I know have a radically different idea of how things work than I do. Our differences are irreconcilable.
You don't know many liberals. They believe that the government creates wealth and the rich steal too much of it. As far as they are concerned, fewer rich people means more money for them.
I can only speak for one.
“Can we put Humpty Dumpty back together, or are we headed the way of Czechoslovakia or Yugoslavia?”
Dissolution. Finally.
Me either. A lot of smart guys just got it wrong. The University of Colorado researchers miscalled the results, too. Last night was the first time they got it wrong.
