The undeniable reality is shady slimy politics won this election, while principled politicians lost. Liberalism is a mental disorder and a addiction, you may die if you dont enough doses of the Liberal drug, thats what the dumbed down Americans getting their news from the MSM have been fed upon.

Liberalism is a mental disorder and a addiction

As a former liberal I must agree with that characterization. The only way I can see that conservatives can turn things around is if enough liberals start waking up that they sway their friends, who in turn sway their friends, etc. I don't know how we can reach critical mass, but if we do the liberals are finished; if we don't, the best we can do is limit the speed of our own slide into the abyss.

I don't know what stimulus would be most effective at turning liberals, but one that I would think would be helpful would be if a conservative were to do a "Criswell"-style prediction routine and ask people to write down his predictions and ask liberals to--as a game--seal them in an envelope. But unlike Criswell, actually make predictions of things which to any rational conservative are entirely predictable. A few years later, he should ask liberals to look in their envelopes and see how he fared.

As a liberal, I found that when liberal politicians' programs failed to work as advertised I always viewed the failures as resulting from unforeseeable circumstances. Would have been a little harder to rationalize if someone had, in fact, foreseen them perfectly.
