I hate to be a pessimist, but we have to face the likelihood that the electorate will shift further leftward with each successive election cycle. Well if you hate being a pessimist, stop being one! :-)
Your political analysis is sound, but despair is not an appropriate response. I have faith in our Lord, and believe that all else is transitory and ephemeral, so while regrettable human failings increasingly attempt to submerge and bury the truth...truth will out. And we do know who wins in the end. Our job is to stand firm

That's why I included the phrase, "humanly speaking." A mass revival could occur, along with reformation of the church and society, if God so desires it. As a Calvinist, I also believe in the sovereignty of God over all human affairs. In the long run, we know who wins, q.v., the Book of Revelation. However, we must also look at the political and cultural situation in our country realistically. We must also analyze prevailing political and historical trends and the logical consequences of actions such as poorly controlled immigration by nationals of Third World countries. I would like to see a President Alan Keyes or a President Howard Phillips, but it does not appear possible at this time. We may have to settle for a President Tom Ridge or a President Jeb Bush and pray and work for a better day.
