If every Republican were to get off his dead butt, get off the couch, turn off the cable, and actually dare to leave the trailer park for a few moments to vote, just as if he were going to Wal-Mart, we might get near 50%+ of the vote in a lot of states. Just not the big ones.
The Republicans are the minority party. The reason our "candidates," and I use that term advisedly, run such mealy-mouthed, nonsensical campaigns is that they are trying to lure the mythical "independent voter," not the depends-wearing crowd that will vote for them anyway.
We are in a period of crisis. The Republican Party is dead, and has not yet lain its sorry ass down. There is nothing to replace it. It struggles on merely to assure that its major contributors will have a place on the Titanic lifeboats and that their perks and pork are safe. The GOP does not particularly want the WH in this next election. They want to keep the House and increase their power in the Senate. Why? Better place at the card table.
Can no American voter figure out that these Republican representatives arrive as paupers in DC, and 2 or three terms later, leave as multi-millionaires? Fight the Democrats? Are you mad? They are the ones giving out the money! The House and Senate are vast insider trading schemes, not constitutionally governing bodies.
I reregistered as an Independent on 02. I didn’t have any hope the Republicans would return to small government ways. I was right. The collusion going on between the parties in DC and the capital cities is because we are headed straight for the One World government that all the leaders have been talking (out loud) about for the past 20 years.
