The Democrats are on the verge of a historical defeat. Just two years ago, the party seemed to be forging a majority governing coalition. It controlled Congress, key governorships and many state legislatures. And with the 2008 election of President Obama, the Democrats occupied the White House.
Democrats had a golden opportunity to build an enduring pragmatic liberalism upon the Republican rubble.
They blew it. Instead of focusing on economic recovery, job creation and winning the war on terrorism, the Obama administration used its massive congressional majorities to expand government power.
Mr. Obama is a radical ideologue. He chose socialism over pragmatism, remaking America rather than reviving it.
Yet, as the media coronated him the new leftist emperor, his subjects grew restless under Democratic imperial rule. Mr. Obama has alienated Middle America for one simple reason: His policies are bleeding the country white. They are breaking the nation's back.

Everybody knows that the Minutemen were 38% black Latina womyn, of whom 8% were lesbian and 94% had had abortions; and moreover, 40% were atheists as well.
So there. Waaaaaciss!!!
Apparently a lot of people don’t get the news from any source judging from how many seem to be unaware of the income tax increase that is about to occur.
The last part of the sentence speaks volumes.
Needs to be repeated again, again again, again
That's an understatement.
The Republicans overreached in 2006. Obama is committing grand larceny.
Except this election is being driven by the republicans. They are just the happy beneficiaries of the Tea Party movement.
OK, I'll play. What Democrats were reluctant? Oh, wait! Yes, yes. Those Democrats holding out for some bribes feigned reluctance.
I prefer "cosmic" myself. I don't want them blown out of the water--I want them blown straight off the face of the earth.
As will be the next, and the one after that, and the next one. That will be the challenge.
Great article. Every American should read it.
I'm so f'n sick of that phrase!
You are right, but this is the first one (Election) with this level of importance. So....let’s send a potent & powerful, clear message to failed POTUS Obama, the Democrat Party, the mainstram media and all the America haters here and across the world, starting with hate America, destroyer, Obama and his America & American hating wife, Michelle!!! Let’s take America back to freedom, liberty, opportunity, more & meaningful jobs, less government, less taxes and a bright and growing future for all!!! Let’s take America away from the Democrat Party, Communist Barack Hussein Obama, the idiot media buffoons, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, Rev. Louie Farrakhan, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Dick Durban, Barbara Boxer, Charlie Rangel, Maxine Waters, Al Franken, Barney Frank, etc., etc.!!! You get the pictur, I’m sure!!!

The problem is, there is no such thing as 'pragmatic liberalism.' And today's liberalism doesn't give a rip about 'economic recovery, job creation and winning the war on terrorism.' Only conservatism does.
Today's Dem party cares about two things - more government, and killing babies.
Correct.
And it should be “an”, not “a”.
Incorrect.
As I occasionally point out to Freepers who misspell common words or otherwise mangle the English language, people lose confidence in writers who cannot present their message in a literate fashion.
Wow, thanks.
LOL! “an” is followed by a vowel btw.
Shovel Ready!
