[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

It amazes me to no end how leftists are always analyzing over the death of the GOP and then offering sage advice.

Why can't they be happy that's its dying, and celebrate? Or do they need them like the Globetrotters need the Generals?

The worst thing that could happen to the Democrats is that the G.O.P. implodes.

A new party would arise out of the ashes and after it is all said and done lots of so-called Democrats aren't all that excited about they're party either.

Either one of the parties collapsing could destroy the other when a new party forms because there is no stigma in a new party. There is a high probability that people would desert the remaining party just to get away from the status quo.

That's more or less it. And at some point, the government will manufacture a war against some outside country in order to gin up "patriotism."

Meanwhile, the charade of voting becomes obvious if the two sides don't pretend to fight.

Bingo.
