At this juncture, I'll take a McCain over an Obama, and continue to build support for citizen's candidates for the future.
I refuse acknowledge the situation to be hopeless.
What's your solution, short of armed resistance?
My solution? I dunno, there are not very many good options at this point. Sometimes I wonder if a new party could gain momentum. I think that the Tea Party should have perhaps stood on its own instead of trying to blend with the GOP and change its ways. Other times I wonder if it would be easier to take over the DNC and change its course than to change the RNC. They could perhaps do more good there. The bluedogs had their impact. Heck WV’s DNC senator Manchin is far more to the right than the GOP leadership. Like it or not, Senator Byrd even was on most issues.
I just feel disgusted when I think about someone with a pro-choice, anti-gun, environmentalist, socialized medicine history becoming the standard bearer of the GOP and writing its platform. How am I supposed to feel?
