Ya know, it’s getting tough to stand with any of these people any more. The problem is mine...I’m imbuing them with stands of character and principle that I subscribe to and have been missing the point that they (and in Rush’s case he has been abundantly clear about this for decades) are in it for the money.

I will vote for whoever the Republican candidate is but with some sort of odor filtering device on. None of the candidates we have can arouse any passion in anything or anybody. They are the equivalent of the demonrat blah, blah, blah but without the street-fighter instincts the left has.

It is much easier to be a left-wing puke because THEIR people fight.

What a bunch of sorry wimps leading our side.

This is because far more people on the left literally train for these government/political gigs their whole lives. They go to school for it, they hone political skills for years preparing themselves for it. They are aware the agenda they push often runs contrary to traditional values, so they practice how to manipulate the public and how to otherwise go around the people when necessary.

Far more conservatives, on the other hand, only do the politics thing as an afterthought after a successful career actually achieving something in private business.

Like or not, politics is an art. A good politician has a certain set of skills they are either gifted with or learn through a lot of practice. Electability matters, no matter how much we wish it didn't. The left simply understands this far better than we do, put more time into than we do, and keep cranking out more and more polished politicians than we do. Most people are followers, they do not understand politics, they do not really revere constitutional principles. They are easily suckered and the left are masters at fooling the masses, addicting them to programs and winning their votes again and again.
