Look the day that a WHITE, SUCCESSFUL, WEALTHY, UNHIP GUY gets elected might be around never... people vote today in a POP CULTURE SOCIAL MEDIA kind of way. The Liberals and Democrats are so much better at that game and build so many coalitions through that structure. Here in California the GOP is gone. I can find few outside my Orange County town of Newport and it is just NOT in VOGUE here to even say Republican.
The Demographic face of America has changed and you either change with it accordingly or it leaves you.
When I suggested that America may need a Pinochet person to run this country, I was met with derision that was even of a sexual nature. I still think I am correct and more so during these days.
And there is no right for people who want stuff to take it from the rich and the middle class. From each according to his ability to each according to his needs may be written down in the "Communist Manifesto," but what is a written is history where 100 million people were killed by Communism and they may even be counted as the lucky ones who no longer had to suffer through that horrid system.
I was referring to the eventual nominee. To be sure, several candidates this time in the primary advanced a conservative agenda, but Romney ended up slandering all of them, so we ended up with the Massachusetts moderate.
Michael Reagan blames the victim for the crime.
Stolen votes and fraudulent votes are the problem.
Not so President Reagan made a deal to agree to amnesty in exchange for closing the border Democrats reneged on their part of the agreement!!!
As as far as the Democrats reneging—give me a break. Reagan was President and CINC. He could have taken steps, including executive orders and veto threats, to ensure the border was secured. He didn’t do it because he didn’t care.
EXACTLY!!!!
Obama won because he got more of his drones to vote. It is simple “blocking and tackling”. We are getting beat on the ground.
We also need RUBIO and CRUZ to start becoming more visible in the Latino community. We must get 50% of the Latino vote.
The good news is the 2014 election cycle. If things go as poorly as expected and knowing a lot of Obama voters don’t participate, we need to elect more conservatives to the House. There are 20 Democrat Senators and 13 Republicans on the ballot. We need to start organizing to win +5 or +6 seats. Winnin back the Senate and getting rid of the evil Harry Reid is a MUST. Alaska, NC, and South Dakota should be an easy 3. We need Montana, Virginia, West Virginia, Arkansas, Iowa, and Colorado.
GET GOOD CANDIDATES NOW!!!!! START ATTACKING THE INCUMBENTS NOW till election day. Best money we can spend.
Romney got 60% of the white vote and lost by a couple million.
Lots of people are posting that comparison, but does it really mean anything? Do you think Reagan was a better campaigner than Romnney? Do you think maybe he could have won more votes in 2012 than Romney?
And you failed to say that Regan got 43% of the Latino vote.
I'd bet he could have gotten 65% - 70% of the white vote this year and motivated a few million more to go to the polls and vote.
I do agree on parts of this analysis, but I will also blame the American people’s short term memory. Just two years ago, FISCAL SANITY and FISCAL SANITY ONLY saved the day. A TEA Party sweep! Two fast years later and we cannot bring that same enthusiasm? We cannot even match the popular vote of the pathetic John McCain? And then in the waning hours of the campaign, in comes an idiot like Mourdock and his insane RAPE comment. The support from undecided women was trending heavily toward Romney until that comment. And so once again, an election that should have been focused on our FISCAL cliff was transformed into a social policies war. And guess what. We lost that war again!
One of the stupidest comments I have read!!!
What's your source? This source disagrees:
Brown skinned Hispanics are not going to vote for a white Hispanic and add Republican,who reminds them of the Oligarchs that ruled over them in many Latin countries.
If it becomes impossible for us to stop the marxists at the polls, that is exactly what the choice will come down to, because everyone will realize that Conservatism can’t win in that situation. There is only one other system that can stop marxists once elections fail, and so that will be the only alternative left. Nobody is going to be happy in that situation, but the left will have brought it upon themselves by undermining our Republic.
They became angry about their being positioned by Romney, onto the national stage and spotlight --- where their embarrassment over their difficulties that are not of their own making nor wishes --- was made subject to apparent ridicule by the very brand of bad management who was *the type* whose failed business leadership resulted in these people's economic straights, yet the same "type" was trying to become President.
Obama's high-tech intel-research sensed that as a big problem for Romney, and Obama's ads succeeded in placing Romney as *the cause of these people's unemployment and need* in addition to opening the wound caused by Romney's "47 percent" comment.
These people --- particularly the Reagan Democrats among them --- showed up to vote, but did not vote for either candidate for President, though some bit their tongues and voted for Romney for only one reason: an attempt to protect their right to keep and bear Arms.
Yes and no.
We have been exporting American jobs now for a full generation.
China now has an unemployment rate like we used to.
China is now growing and taking over.
Yes. Taking over. We need to stop sending jobs to China, and bring jobs back to America.
Now.
How did we as a party become blind to this??
The Dems or the GOP need to do something about this, or we need a new party.
The problem has gone (way) beyond critical.
It boils down to; We are headed for The Cliff. We will go over. Civil war is coming and those without guns will die.
During his initial four years, Hitler did not really kill en masse. It was after those four years that the bloody ball got rolling; e.g., kristalnacht, WWII, the holocaust; etc.
Obama and the Democrats are capable of anything and no scrap of paper written by dead white men, some of whom were slaveholders, is going to stop him.
As long as our party is anti-immigrant we will lose national elections by increasing margins.
One of the stupidest comments I have read!!!
In many ways, Reagan was a great President. But he totally dropped the ball on his responsibility to secure our borders. And the proof is that we’re living with the demographic consequences today.
