I think if we had a conservative candidate with an actual plan AND a willingness to call a spade a spade, we might have been able to counteract some of the Kool-Aid.

I can’t imagine there’s ever been a clearer choice in my lifetime. This was Marxism vs. capitalism, pure and simple. But, the Romney campaign was either too afraid or too blind to go there.

Obama kept talking about how there was a clear choice between two distinct visions for the country. Romney could have hit that one out of the park time and again.

As I’ve been saying lately, our nation’s eventual downfall will be largely attributed to (1) the widespread, willful ignorance of basic economics and civics, and (2) the triumph of emotion over reason. But, more than that, it’s people turning to government for security and salvation.

(New tagline debuting today, especially for any of our FRiends tempted to worry about the next four years.)

"Conservative" voters certainly stayed home this time leaving the election to be decided by queers, witches, stoners and the usual libs.

I just don't know. I believe I have allowed my ears to be tickled by people like Rush who were saying what I wanted to hear about how well Romney was doing and how well conservatism is doing.

BHO got up and said that he cut the deficit just a day or two ago. He said it to a crowd of cheering people!!! I just do not get it. Reality means nothing.

Pundits who have spend years pouring over the electorate blew it, who am I to try to sum up what happened. I'm into Danial 4:17 today.
