That is a fantasy.

The same old fantasy that many on FR sprouted for years as they joined with the Democrats to bring about America’s destruction - so they could joyfully wait for the knock on the door answering the fantasy call to come and save the nation. They expect the “uprisers” to turn over the dictatorship and then give them the keys to the kingdom to recreate the government.

Yeah right.

In reality - how often do you see a dictatorship turned into a democracy? How often do people make a revolution - especially those that so fear war they will do anything including turning their government over to an anti-war liberal to prevent being called to fight.

Please do not try that nonsense here. We are still reeling from the traitorous “teach the GOP a lesson” crowd.

One note - they thought they were “teaching the GOP a lesson” by sitting out a prior election because they were er....”unhappy with Bush”. But, in fact, the GOP wanted them out of the party. They do not want conservatives so, the “lesson” was exactly what the GOP wanted.

Glad they are gone. We need fighters, team players and workers who “put the country first” rather than their own personal wish lists. Those “sitters” are worthless to our effort. They will never stick, but will always destroy.

You've made a whole laundry list of assumptions that are totally wrong.

Let's deal in facts, shall we? I support McCain/Palin wholeheartedly and have already voted for them. 99.9% of friends and family are on the same page and have even worked for McCain/Palin. Save your sanctimonious, idiotic judgements, ok?

HISTORY LESSON - What I'm talking about ALREADY HAPPENED in ‘92 with Clinton and then the Dems imploded. Two years later the Pubbies swept both houses, huge gain (Contract With America). The Republicans then blew it through bad PR, mismanagement and hypocrisy. Any questions?

Please remember that the Dixie Mafia’s own Bill Clinton had a majority Congress for the first two years of his term in office. And he promptly lost it after some things scared the carp out of the U.S. public.

Obama doesn’t have tens of people who have died in his inner circle.

Don’t be so sure the teflon Obam won’t lose Congress in 2010.

Rarely, but it can happen at least partially, e.g.:

The Philippines, post-Marcos.

Romania, Poland & other former Soviet-bloc nations.

Chile, post-Pinochet.

Nicaragua, post-Sandinistas.

Those are all fragile results, by no means permanent, and often reversible (as recent turnovers back to the leftists in Chile & Nicaragua indicate). The struggle of representative republics against despotism will continue for millennia; it's just human nature.

Oh, please, not this canard again. If it weren't for conservatives showing up in 2006, it would have been a much bigger blowout than it already was. Those that are being blamed for supposedly wanting to "teach the GOP a lesson" did no such thing. Please stop presenting this fiction at FR.
