I have no idea. It seems like everything that could have gone wrong for true conservatives, did go wrong this time. I just hope this cycle is a one-time anomaly.
When we put our trust into humans alone, we have a, well, bunch of humans alone.
Without guidance from the HS, we will always wander off the narrow path, seduced by the dark side, or intrigued by the glamour of the jungle, or curious about what happens just over that ridge.
Conservatives got the thing that corrupts most absolutely - power.
