When will the GOP strategists get a clue?
The current crop, never. They're all about providing cheap labor to their globalist masters. If they'd be about decent opportunity and jobs for the white and established minority middle class, the Obama Party wouldn't even be in the running.
IMO, all the RATs need to do is to go forward with their voter fraud and voter suppression, e.g., 20012, which the GOP has left unchecked and not investigated nor prosecuted!
“When will the GOP Strategists get a clue?”
They won’t.
2016 Electoral Map is pure awful. There are enough dumb-low information voters in Electoral swing states to carry the day, regardless. The fact Hillary Clinton can still be talked about as a serious candidate even after her ties to the Benghazi scandal shows the dire state of Electoral Politics in this country.
Until conservatives do a better job articulating conservative principles to the populace, this will be the norm for some time to come.
The beltway GOP doesn’t care. There are no patriots in the leadership. They are content with the status quo for the next 3 years. 2016 and beyond the GOP “plan” is to marginalize conservatives and try to be a “centrist” party with the Dems on the left.
Not when Bonehead and Cantor and Rubio help pass amnesty.
For the Democrats to target this group of voters is about as ideologically consistent with their agenda of the past several decades as if Barry Goldwater in 1964 had made a big push to get Socialists and Communists to vote for him. Their hope is to fool people with nice sounding slogans when everything the Democrats actually do is contrary both to the values and to the economic wellbeing of these voters.
The Democrats will offer them free stuff. That oughta do the trick.
Current blue collar Democrat voters are like Southern Conservatives of the 70’s who had voted a straight Democrat ticket forever, just like their pappies and their grandpappies. They came to realize the the Democrat Party did not represent their interests, their beliefs, or their convictions. They left and have not come back. If the Republicans are to overcome this Liberal/Progressive/Commie juggernaut, they must to the same with the midwest and east coast blue collar, salt of the earth type and they can - if they want to.
translation: We here at the Democrat Party don’t have another Barack Hussein Obama to pull out of our arse who can turn out minority voters at historically unprecedented levels.
There’s a LOT of “working class” whites who aren’t working and are sucking up entitlements.
They provided the swing votes in 2012 in my view.
“In the months since the 2012 elections it has become apparent that the victorious Democratic coalition Obama assembled is still not sufficiently large to overcome the unprecedented Republican obstruction and sabotage of the normal processes of American political life.”
How dare you express dissent, you saboteurs, you. We’ll obstruct your applications for non-profit status to keep you from these counterrevolutionary obstructions. You are the enemas of the people.
