The Senate Republican filibuster is the only thing that can stop Democrat tax increases, Republicans need to be clear that any tax increase legislation will be filibustered, and any Republicans that can’t, go get a new party designation, your not wanted
But moving through the crowd in the moments before the networks called the race for Obama, I talked to a young couple who brought their children to the celebration including an infant. The huge bearded father had recently gotten out of the army after three tours in Iraq and one in Afghanistan. He was proud of his service but was attracted to Obamas call to bring the troops home from Iraq. He also was disgusted with the corruption and incompetence of the Republicans and didnt see John McCain as anything but a continuation of policies that he believed were bad for the country.
When I asked him what policies of Obamas he supported besides the pullout from Iraq, he couldnt name a single thing. All he knew was that an Obama presidency would take the country in a different direction. ...
There is a very good chance that both the Iraq veteran and his wife would have eagerly supported a Republican for president just ten years ago.
Absolutely.
The Republican Party needs to say:
We believe:
Lower taxes
No socialized Medicine
Strong Borders
No Amnesty
Domestic energy production
Strong National Defense
Those who do not accept these tenets are welcome to leave the Party.
