Something better happen and happen fast or the Pubbies will be the minority party for a long, long time.
Hey, RNC: Get back to the Conservative Principles.
I hear you but that statement is too general. The RNC can't fix it without a winning conservative candidate.
No way Arkansas goes Blue. Look at Bush’s margins there in ‘04 - there’s no way they swing that much.
not suprising,
Seriously, this is scare-tactics, nothing more.
1. It's just not accurate to say "regardless of candidate" because that assumes every vote votes party only. That's obvious BS.
2.A lot can happen in a year and a half. Clinton and Obama can burn out, somebody else can emerge. Same on the Republican side -- we don't have any idea who's going to be running.
3. > Get back to the Conservative Principles.
EXACTLY CORRECT !! Of course, easier said than done...
yeah sure, going FURTHER right is going to solve this.
look at the list - CO, NM and NV are going Dem because of the Hispanic vote in those states is moving away from republicans. and its because of people like Tancredo.
and I take issue with this poll - I think for example, Rudy would take PA over Hillary in the general.
They could run on the slogan: "No leadership, no guts, and no principles."
Obviously, I've been a little less than happy with them.

If the Iraq war keeps going through next year, it's curtains for the GOP in the election. You might not like hearing that, but it's true.
After we feel the full impact of the upcoming amnesty, this will become reality.
What we've seen though is the GOP leadership saying, "Hey, Democrats are looking like they are polling good. Let's be more like them..."
Morons. Alienate your base and what the heck do you think is going to happen?
I've said so for a while, but most Freepers just dismiss it and live on in fantasy invincible GOP land. In particular I have said for a while that Dubya wouldn't win my state of Nevada if the election were held today, and also that Hilly could conceivably win it against a lackluster GOP candidate.
Time to snap out if it people - stop thinking that most of the nation is as nutty as you are.

As soon as Bush signs amnesty for the illegals, he will enable 20 million Democrat voters. Shortly thereafter the Republican party will cease to exist as a political force.
Gee, I don’t blame the party, I blame the media and the stupidity of the American people who don’t know they are being manipulated by the News they watch. The media has been trying to destroy Bush since day one, and they have about succeeded.
This sounds like the kind of nightmares that the RNC dicuss right before they ask for money and suggest that if you don’t send them every penny you have, it will all be your fault.
No surprise.
Red politicians are turning blue.
If we assume that those who wanted to teach the GOP a lesson will add to their ranks and want to do so again in '08 I can only surmise that Hillary will be the POTUS and I will try to find a relative in Sicily that I can live with!!
thank rumsfeld and bremer for this.
there should have been a decisive and short end to the war in iraq with american troops turning control over to the locals.
