The elites of the GOP have to see that they can't take social conservatives for granted the way the Democrats take blacks for granted.
There is something to be said for dignity. I will not vote for the GOP that will do exactly what the Dems want them to do.
When we start losing elections, there will be a shake-up.
The history of the GOP is not a good one. With the exception of the Coolidge era, the Goldwater blip, and the Reagan years, the GOP is nothing but a bunch of elite statists, that loathe the concept of freedom for average people. Voting for that is just as bad as voting for the party that loathes the concept of self-reliance.
When America decides that enough is enough, I'll take notice. The GOP is not the cure for what ails us. Conservative rage is.
Agreed - and every dissident down here in Red Nation who I talk to feels that way.
The talk is open; we're not voting for Jorge in 2004 - out of outrage over his stance on immigration. None of his spinmeisters can show us any difference between Jorge and Gephardt or Hitlery on immigration, quotas, or any other social issue but guns and abortion. Dissidents talk openly of how he disses the only significant demographic group to have voted for him - Red Nation's nonminorities. We don't even care if Hitlery wins; we feel that will be the last straw forcing the sheeple down here bought off with superficial debt-ridden prosperity that's now collapsing to get with the program.
