That's all wel and fine joe, but OWK doesn't offer anything constructive how to do that electorally.

Lessons in constructive politics 101 (written exclusively for Dane).

Lesson 1) If you want the politicians you elected, to do something (or not do something), then you must actually speak out. Sitting around waiting until they do the wrong thing, and then making excuses for them after the fact makes them think that you either like it, or are indifferent.

Lesson 2) Stop pretending that massive budget-busting social programs and expansion of federal involvement in education, and the arts, is somehow "conservative".

Lesson 3) Get over your hive-mind mentality, and have the courage to think for yourself.

Lesson 4) Recognize that the president is not a god. He is simply a man. A man who can and does make mistakes. He works for you, not the other way around. (this goes for all politicians... even (gasp) those with an "R" on their team jersey).

Lesson 5) Stop pretending that republican politicians represent a fragile house of cards, and that any of their actions (no matter how ridiculous) should be above criticism lest the whole house fall to the democrats.

Lesson 6) Stop pretending that socialism is somehow a good thing when promulgated by republicans instead of democrats.

Huh OWK still "crickets" on the question asked of you in reply #297 and that question is who is your ideal Presidential candidate.

I guess your refusing to answer the question adds another piece of evidence that you are not interested in anything constructive, but are in the business of destruction, the same business the DNC is in.
