“How do we change course with the electorate, media, and intelligentsia we have?”
By UNITING against the common enemy — those who are trying to destroy the USA from the inside.
If conservatives and Republicans (we all know they are not all the same) would have united against Obama and gotten out the vote, Obama would not have gotten a second term. Romney wasn’t going to be Reagan, but he surely wouldn’t be Obama. Conservatives who stayed home and sulked or voted third party were the ones who reelected Obama.
And the worst is that they never learn — they elected Clinton too by voting for Ross Perot, instead of keeping their eye on the prize.
See my tagline.
Yes, well, having watched someone as buffoonish as BJ Clintoon not only get elected, but RE-elected, then watching as AlGore came within a hair's-breadth of stealing an election, THEN undergoing with appalled disbelief the repeat of history with The Won, someone with not only blatant socialist beliefs but almost indisputably not even a Citizen get not only elected but RE-ELECTED, I think your clinging to The Vote as the process currently stands needs some reevaluation.
