It was thrilling to see her defeated in Iowa. But it’s still extremely depressing to think that roughly 29 percent of the Democrat participants in Iowa went out on a cold night just so they could sit in a room for 2 hours and express their support for another 4 or 8 years of rampant corruption in our nation’s highest office. The people who vote for Hillary are terribly uninformed or maybe they’re just as corrupt and evil as she is.

If anyone remembers way back when, she wasn’t even going to go to Iowa. Her problem will be losing NH and then a Southern state.

On the flip side, she already has the major states with the big delegates sewn up so this to her is more of how to handle what the media is saying.

Either way, if she doesn’t win the nomination, she will steal it at a brokered convention.

These empty-life Hill-Bots think they will profit from it. Plain and simple.
THe Charlatan Campaign is being seen for what it is, the Acme of Incompetency and Elitism. Most don’t want anything to do with the Witch.

I saw a disturbing post yesterday by Scythian that stuck with me. Mostly because it plucked at fears I don't like to acknowledge. Allow me to paraphrase:

***

"This country has tilted so far to the left it no longer resembles the nation we grew up in. The Republican party is now the Democrat party of our youth: Big government and socialist. The Democrat party is tilted so far to the left that they have literally become dangerous."

***

As "definable" conservatives, we represent perhaps 25% to 35% of the population at most. The rest is a amalgam of moderates and socialists with perhaps some elements of the former Republican party thrown in.

Our political role has been to hold fast to our values, the same upon which this nation is founded, and that which the left seeks to destroy by attrition, tyranny and open treason.

The moderates seek to compromise those values. Their actions have gradually worn away at the Constitutional freedoms we have enjoyed growing up with. They have done damage to the extent that many of us fear for the future freedom of our children. Domestic policy appears more and more to be dictated by the tyrannical socialists at the UN rather than by the American people.

I hate to be a pessimist, but I think we do a disservice to ourselves and our children not to recognize what we are up against.

On that note, I'm open and willing to do what we need to do to change this nation's direction in order to preserve it's future for our children. If it was just for me, I wouldn't be bothering. I guess that's what makes the struggle different for conservatives. Our reasons for being here for most of us are "Not about me", but for others we care for.

Here's to hoping that regardless of where Hillary puts the deck chairs, her ship sinks with all hands.

On that note, looks like a great day for football. God Bless America! ; )
