Hmmm. I think you fail to see the problem here.
Sorry if I was too harsh — just got fed up reading all the posts saying ACORN this, voter fraud that, on the Tedisco posts today.
The “problem” as I see it is that these conspiracy fantasies only serve as distractions from reality. The reality is simply that modern American politics are cyclical.
The best-case scenario for the GOP is that it regroups and wins in 2010, just like in 1994. Whether it can harness its grass roots to do that depends on whether people give up things like this birth certificate nonsense sooner rather than later.
Of course, lots of the base still believes the GOP doesn’t deserve to win yet. Maybe that’s valid.
Again, no offense intended.
