They’re going to stack the vote.
(No, they can’t do that!)
They already are.
And since no one is interested in stopping them, I expect the ballot stuffing movement to gain momentum.
Wasn’t there a thread a few hours ago with the exact same subject only “Republicans” instead of “Democrats”?
I think the democrats are fixin to get stomped and only the GOPe can save them.
That'll certainly help (them).
Most states are now pretty solid either red or blue, and only a small number in play.
Like 2012 the election will really only be contested in Ohio, Virginia, Florida, and a few others.
Here’s one scenario: Obamacare, et al provides sufficient momentum for the GOP to take the Senate and retain control of the House in 2014. This will give the Stupid Party two years to reach-across and share power and do all the stupid stuff they’re more than capable of doing, quite likely with Boehner and McConnell still at the helm. They’ll fail to accomplish anything meaningful and by the time 2016 rolls around, the elites will have hand-picked the next candidate, a moderate like Jeb Bush, and enough conservatives will do what they did in 2012 so we’ll have President Hillary and First Gentleman Bubba.
Aside from the religious and conservatives are there any more votes the democrats can buy? Certainly the illegal amnesty will help them. They have boxes of uncounted ballots already to go just in case. The democrats have a republican establishment that actively helps democrats. I say their odds are very high they will win in 2016.
My thoughts are it bit odd that this was by a mainstream mediot. Basically in the mainstream media every GOP victory is a blip and ever Dim win is a major realignment.
131.4 m voted in 2008; 129.2 m voted in 2012 with “a changed demographic” and a larger voting aged population. The media continues to obscure the fact that there was a pretty massive failure on the Democrats’ part to turn out the vote, despite the supposed technical wizardry they had. It would be puzzling that voter turnout of the voting age population in 2012 is being ignored everywhere ( having slipped from high 50’s in ‘08 to very low 50’s in ‘12http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/) except that it fits so well with the agenda of trying to stampede the Republicans to the left. As Romney admitted, he had to “steal” the nomination away from the southern, populist evangelical base. The effort to steal it away goes on again. There is no demographic wave about to wash over the GOP.
There is nothing "democratic" about the "Democrat" party.
More GOP daydreaming. Thinking about 2016 and beyond while the Dems ruthlessly focus on 2014. The GOP tip toes to 2014 while the Dems execute their new a lie every week and divide the GOP strategy.
I don’t know how uphill its going to be after Boehner and his merry band of RINO’s pass amnesty and then tax hikes ie. “closing the loopholes” That means getting rid of the middle class mortgage deduction and God knows what else. After screwing the veterans I wouldn’t put anything past those shameless quislings.
6 million republicans sat home in 2012. What if 8 million sit home in 2016?
We are on an express train to disaster. The only question is will the military intervene (or something else) to derail it.
LOL! I’d love to believe we have a shot in 2016, but after seeing Obama win again...I doubt it the American people are too stupid.
If patriots would wake up and use the 2014 and 2016 elections to build a Congress controlled by a 2/3 conservative majority in each House by 2016, then a conservative Congess would be able to overide the vetoes of any RINO or liberal that gets elected to the Oval Office in 2016.
When Republicans are in the majority, they govern like they are in the minority.
When Republicans are in the minority, the govern like they’ll never again become the majority party.
We are at 1978 looking at 1980. All we need is a conservative candidate.
The Democrat political strategy for 2014 and 2016 is crystal clear:
Get huge numbers of Black, Hispanic, immigrant, and poor white women voters to the polls.
It's a simple math problem.
For the last 20 years, Republicans have won elections only because of high turnout from white voters, and low turnout from non-white voters.
When non-whites start to vote at the same rate that whites vote, the game is up for Conservatives.
If Democrats can turn out their base in 2016, they will win Georgia and turn Texas into a “Battleground” state.
2016 will show if it makes sense any longer to challenge the designated candidates, or incumbents on national level. It no longer makes sense in most districts on local level. What is the number, 97% (?) of Congresscritters running for re-election win? Are any US Senators beatable? State legislators and senators? Not where I hang my Che Guevara hat!
