Agreed! Ronald Reagan said that.
Yes and losing is so much fun. You might like using this Willy Wonka quote: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M5QGkOGZubQ
These holier-than-thou positions are childish and immature. We need to work the long game and you get there by winning now. You look at every conservative state and you win there. You can make the House much more conservative than it naturally would be because of urban Democrat jerrymandering and you keep tightening the noose.
This is the Internet Age and it’s harder and harder to keep people ignorant of the shenanigans. We just force a Dem Governor, a Dem Senate and a Dem House to allow a tax cut to expire and not pass any new “revenue sources”. We can checkmate them and win. Voters are tired of the same old, same old.
So here we are, right at a massive change in political thought something like FDRs time or the late 60s. People order from Amazon and it’s there in 2 days. People can return products for nearly any reason. Consumers get what they want from the free market, but politics is still 19th century and government services as well.
It’s over for big government. People won’t tolerate junk and failure. They want solutions and they want them to work. The economy is coming back, despite Obama’s best efforts. Let Congress push out his most egregious efforts and the economy booms.
Put money in people’s pockets and keep putting it there and they don’t care about all your other “too conservative” policies. Careful, thoughtful change is what the voter wants, along with a growing economy. We’ll get that starting late this year. The economy will grow at 2.5%+ for 2014 and get better going forward with a GOP Congress.
The Presidential for 2016 is critical. An aggressive pro-market GOP ticket focused mainly on economic issues will win. Let Congress right the rules and tighten the noose on the Leviathan, return power and the balance of power to the states, use the Commerce Clause to break state mandated monopolies as restraints of trade and the economy picks up to 3-4%+ without inflation.
Then we hold Congress for a generation or more as Millenials grow up with GOP prosperity and conservative values. That’s the potential future. Those that take their ball and go home are foolish.
