Thank you for your kind words.
We need to quit looking to the RNC for a Savior and realize the real problem we face is ignorance and the fact that, although Rush likes to say this and I hate to disagree with him, the delusion that “conservatism works every time it’s tried.”
Whether that’s true or not, is not my point. My point is that that mantra leads too many to think that the “fix” is simple-—just get a more conservative candidate (by whatever standard on applies), run a more conservative campaign (however that is measured), advance more conservative ideas (by someone’s definition) . . . then everything will be right with the world and we will win every time.
Again, that’s simply not true, and the delusion that it is leads to much wasted effort and heartache.
Before we can stop being at the mercy of history, we have several major myths to bust. Such as: the Rats are better on the economy and are for the “little guy;” corporations are evil and so are rich people; etc.
Wait-—I see Pelosi and Reid are speaking in Washington now. Pardon me now while I go bard.
You are right again when you say “the real problem we face is ignorance”.
In this era of rapid communication and the so-called information age, there isn’t much excuse for uninformed voters. Rather, we have seen the cult of personality, the image-makers, the psy-ops that have been successfully sold to a large portion of the voters who didn’t take the time or effort to be better informed.
Maybe it was just easier to buy the image than to look at facts.
