I agree. Pres. Bush is probably worse than Carter and that’s saying something...he convinced Americans that Repubs are incompetent.
One offect of political correctness is that the Republicans are pressured not to debate in areas they can win.
What if a politician did some research about how many Asians are shut out of schools because of the need for quotas for other groups? He or she would be called a “hatemonger” and “appealing to our worst instincts.” In truth, it would get a lot of Asian votes.
No doubt cowardly GOP congress played a role.
The largest communist country in the world is China. They have a different idea of hard work than a traditional American.
Tell me about it....I worked for a US Congressman for 3 years.
They hire “professionals” to run campaigns, who only know how to pander to the MSM and the Dims.
This comes from decades upon decades of reacting to the liberal news media. It is a habit, and the only way to get elected.
This must end....we need a communications group to brainstorm some ideas to defeat these media bastards.
Toomey should have a good shot by then depending, of course, on the so-called swing of the pendulum.
I don’t see the pendulum swinging in PA.
Actually, Newt did that about 13 years ago.
We DO NOT want to be the majority, if that means we can’t implement Conservative policy. And keeping jack asses like Specter on the Repbulican roles, is a sure way to make sure we NEVER EVER have a chance to do it.
What good does it does us to have a majority, if our party members are voting with the Democrats?
I can’t believe how many people are so confused, that they can’t understand this concept.
Even when we had the majority, we weren’t able to move policy our direction. This concept is why.
I don't think cultural issues such as gun control help Republicans among Asians (I am Indian). I don't support gun control and understand the argument that legal gun ownership enables self-defense, but no one in my family has ever thought of buying a gun.
I doubt that Asians supported the Iraq war as much as whites did, and there is less of a military tradition among Asians than whites. The military tends to vote Republican.
The Dems have a number of blue dogs and are still advancing a leftist agenda...with all due respect, we will never advance anything if we remain in the minority.
It was a different era...PA has gone down the dark path like New York, Connecticut. I live near Pittsburgh.
sadly, a couple of 9/11s down the road and the GOP will be fine.
I would never wish for such a thing. No American would. But you are correct. It’s going to take a big screw up for this to end well for the GOP.
You can convince yourself that those blue dogs are ours if you like, but what way did they vote when the big votes came down? That’s right, they voted with the Democrats.
Three of our bastards voted with the Democrats recently, to do in the Republican push.
How much more clear does it need to be?
How many Democrats in the house crossed over? How many Democrats in the Senate crossed over? How many Democrats in the Senate crossed over?
Our little libtards(R) have got to go IMO.
Look, I think you’ve got an argument to make, but I’ve had it with that concept. Sorry.
Asian leaders tend to be socialist/communist and the rest tend to follow (a generalization of course). This particular election they didn't like McCain who had previously voiced his dislike for "gooks". Some of the others were angry voters who felt that Bush betrayed them by overspending. Finally, Asians feel that they have been excluded from republican administrations.
Now is the time for positivism, not negativism.
On giving billions to ACORN, we got two to vote against (Nelson-Neb and KKK Byrd). I know it's slim pickings, but at least it's a start.
Well, for that bailout boondoggle, none did. We had just enough of our Senators go south to defeat us.
The same day as that vote, those two or three Senators should have been shown the door by the Republican Party IMO.
