Yea see those ‘long term consequenses’ were pretty far from the collective GOP mind when they pushed for lesser evil. Because ‘long term’ they added up to a party too gutless to impeach, filled with people too gutless to admit what they are. Moderates at best.
I think it’s awfully entertaining how a certain same old same old group of posters here hit all these threads with excuse after excuse covering for the ‘strategy’ of letting Obama retain power and not using the Constitution to strip him of his office.
Who came up with that ‘strategy’? Saul Alynski, Cloward or Piven? Ayres perhaps? Or was it a collective DNC contribution?
I, on the other hand, while angry with the GOP over Mississippi and other issues, realize an important point:
NO political party will ever be perfect, as all political parties will consist of human beings, with egos, pride, ambition, cowardice and all the other human faults.
In truth, pushing for a “3rd Party” as you and your buddies want, will only make YOU compromise more and more with worthless or even damaging candidates. If your goal is to harm the GOP, you do not care if you win or lose an election as long at the Republicans take one on the chin.
This is suicide and it accomplishes nothing.
AS for your other worn out refrain? This country would be FAR worse off if not for conservatives like me within the Republican Party who have been fighting the good fight for years and years.
The “lesser of evils” strategy is the ONLY strategy, as well fall short of the Glory of God.
NO candidate will ever be perfect.
Every strategy has risks and rewards.
The risk of impeachment now is far, far higher than the “reward” of Joe Biden, perhaps, being POTUS.
