The political machine won.

Actually it was McCain who won with very little money and campaign that was dead just a few months ago.

Duncan lost because the voters rejected him. Accept that fact and act accordingly.

McCain won NOT Republicans but "independents" and liberal RINOs who like his "maverick" anti-Republican ways!!!!

No rejection by Republicans but by non-Republicans, "accept that fact and act accordingly" thyself!

[Jim Noble]

In a system where elections decide who governs, minorities which cannot deliver votes become irrelevant. The Rudy McRomney forces are winning about 60% of the votes and Christian socialism has about 25-30%.

Your choices now are:

a) Accept the fact that your country is lost.

b) Reconcile with forces more powerful than yours, give them the votes they need to prevail, and acquire influence.

c) Become revolutionaries.

Your call.
