There is no way the GOP can win 2012 IMO. Their nominee is Mr. 1% corporate-owned robot with no personality in the era of Occupy. The guy is an empty vessel of, "I'll say whatever you want me to say if I can be President". He has no soul, no purpose, no core. He literally flip-flops and contradicts within sentences of himself (Saturday night debate)

The party as it used to be is collapsing upon itself. Socially they are so out of step as to be obsolete. Economically they will never escape Bush trashing the country, and the failure of Reaganomics. They traded their souls for 2010, and now the devil has quickly collected. We are witnessing the destruction. Whether the remnants will be able to someday coalesce into something different, to remain a viable major party, remains to be seen. But it's Democrats and Independents now, with the Independents being former Republicans, real progressives, and the usual Ron Paul types. The "Republican Party" pretty much claims the evangelicals only, the southern rural section of the US, and that's only about 25% of the populace, max. The GOP is now the party of anger and hate. They are the party that boos active duty soldiers; and cheers people dying when they don't have insurance, and executions. They are the party of Rush Limbaugh's vitriol and hate, and Fox News. Not something many want to be associated with any longer.

i have no idea where you get your optimism.

i think the only chance we have is holding onto the white house and that's going to be touch and go if we're extremely lucky on the economy.

people i talk to are pissed off and blame the government.

i'm not saying they're right. i'm just saying it's a tough election when you're playing defense in that environment.

My optimism comes from looking at demographic changes in the US rapidly trending away from the Republican Party permanently, and the still-lingering effects of the Bush nightmare. People are not going to vote that right back into office. Not yet. And every GOP candidate is a clone of Bush financial actions.

The public "threw the bums out" in 2010 by voting in the Tea Party, and that resulted in the most historically do-nothing congress ever, with the lowest approval ratings ever. They do not blame the President for that. They see the reality. I think they'll throw alot of people out, but not blindly as they did in 2010.

And the prez is a clone of Bush financial actions.BigRun was in attendance.He felt me up...whoa!!..I mean he agreed with me.This, even though I am not sure what I am talking about.

The public must now "throw the bum out" in 2012 by voting in the anything that has a birth certificate.Also , this libtard senate has resulted resulted in the most historically do-nothing senate ever, with the lowest approval ratings ever. They should jointly blame the President for that. They see the reality. I think I throw a lot of bullsh.it around here , but I am not blind.Fucl< Obama.
