Obamatard's own OMB budget for 2013 says we will have 22 trillion in debt by 2016. We won't make it that far before the collapse. When those EBT cards don't work anymore because the government has no more credit, then we will get martial law. |

There's got to be some understading that at least 5 other parties have come and gone since the founding fathers. The Republican/Democratic stronghold NEEDS to end. If the Repubs end their streak, then an introduction of a new party may open up new opportunities. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1569968 I think the root of conservatism still lies in the Republican party. The conservatives have been slowly usurped by Liberal thinking "Republicans" and Neo-Con types. I would not care WHAT the True Conservative party is called, Republican or whatever, that is not the point. |

They have moved to the left as the Democrats have moved FAR left to get votes. It's called the 'Overton Window'. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 21277120 The GOP is DEAD on ARRIVAL. I'm an Independent Conservative......plain and simple. OK fine, but how do you propose TRUE Conservatives band together and become a unified force to STOP the spread of Obama/Liberal Republican Socialism? Are you going it alone? |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 8464481 United States 11/07/2012 10:57 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The demographics have changed and will continue to change. The thing is, those demographics tend to favor the Democratic Party. I don't think your idea of going further right is going to win any big elections any time...probably ever again. Best chance with that strategy might be keeping the house, but Senate races, as well as the Presidency will be off limits. The Republican Party cannot continue to poll 30% of latinos, 3% of blacks, and give the Dems 60% (almost) of women. Your formula (Libertarians, Constitutionalists????? Really, what is that like 3% of likely voters????) makes no difference in the changing America. White male voters will increasingly make up less of the electorate. Sorry, but your idea is horrible. |

Then you are the one with the harsh ideas such as having a budget each year. Smaller and less intrusive government, less taxes, strong defense, stronger local government compared to federal and state. If 50% of the country are on the dole and will just vote for Santa this just means the USA is over…they just have a few more credit cards to max out first. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 25130922 United States 11/07/2012 11:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I acknkowledge this explanation with far more truth tha the OP's point!!! And I saw this next one. This is the one that made me think this exit poll was BS. I just, intellectually, had trouble with this one. "More than half the people who voted yesterday said that they still blame Bush for the economy." More than half the people who...? After four years! Well, now, what is the answer to this? How in the world do you deal with this? There are ways, and we didn't do them. There were too many assumptions made about what the American people thought, about what they knew. Too many assumptions were made. But look, I don't want to nitpick the campaign today. That's not the point. There are larger things here at work. "Roughly half voters want the health care law as it is or expanded, and they are voting for Obama." Really? I haven't seen a poll like that anywhere. Every poll -- every poll! -- I have seen on Obamacare features a majority and close to 60% who don't like it, but this is an exit poll of people who voted. "People who say they are looking for a strong leader and someone who has more of a vision for the future support Romney. Romney even wins among voters voting for 'a candidate who shares my values.' Voters believe the economy's weak and Romney will be better able to manage the economy." Now, this is for people the exit pollers say, this is the reason if Romney wins. This is why. Well, obviously, those people were vastly outnumbered, which is where we are today. We're outnumbered. cut from... [link to www.rushlimbaugh.com] |

Now who in the world that has lived for generations on goverment support is going to vote for a party that wants to put them to work .. I keep hearing of the landslide victory but looking at the supposed popular vote we see what, little over 2 million margin on total of close to 120 million votes. How many welfare votes factor into this. So if the recent immigrant vote went largely for the Dems, how many of those are fraudulent? 2 million isn't a lot on the grand scheme of things, but obviously enough to tip the scale . So the future of the country rests on the vote, opinion, of people on welfare. Really known for being vibrant, productive , law abiding , contributing citizens. I think there is a collorary to the historical 3/5ths compromise vote for slaves always going to the whims of their masters. The commie socialist greatest victory was taking over the education system. |

The tide has turned in America and the white race is dying out because white people are not repopulating their race. People of color are breeding more than 1.8. Soon the white people are going to be the minority all over the country, not just in the southwest. The republican party has become fundamentalist. Religion or lack thereof is not what a political party affiliation should be about, that is what churches are for, to support your religion. the republican party has strayed from the main concept of separation of church and state too far for most people's comfort. The republican party has alienated women from the their party by trying to turn back the right of women to make their own decisions about reproduction. Having people like karl rove co-opt the tea party movement certainly turned me off. It started off as a good movement, one that I supported, then it was hijacked by the neo-cons who pretty much got us into the mess we're in. The way the republican party and the media was so rude to Dr. Paul, a long time conservative who was respected by many, was also a big turn off. We need more honest statesmen in our leadership like Dr. Paul. I've been registered as a republian because it used to stand as the party that was fiscally conservative. It championed the environment. It was for limited government. I don't even recognize the party anymore. It's a sad state when the republican party can not muster up a viable candidate to beat Obama, twice. |
Truthache User ID: 1465537 United States 11/07/2012 11:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Correction: Quoting: Truthache Repopulate the Republic -- or it dies Parties have nothing to do with it. Ha ha, I like that. Can we Repopulate with Conservatives this time? We've surely got enough Liberals. In a Republic it wouldn't matter because people would be living their lives independent of any popular public opinion. That is why a Republic was the best form of government to support the cause of liberty and independence. Of course the Republic was mostly abandoned when 140+ years ago they beat and murdered the living shit out of half a million Americans, forcefully removed their seated governments, reconstructed the constitution, wiped the original 13th Amendment off the face of the planet, created a corporation, told everyone born that the corporation was their country, reinforced it through a socialized public school system, ran it boom/bust bankrupt and then sold it all out all to a cartel of international bankers that still today holds the balls of every politician firmly in a vice. Meanwhile, they keep the people clambering for corporate freebies, privileges, and immunities. The Liberal/Conservative argument is entertaining fluff to them. They revel in it, benefit from it, and promote it. Step 1) Divide Setp 2) Conquer in warm pursuit... |

We are talking here of just simply being what made this Great Nation what it is (Conservatism) and throwing off that ideology (Liberalism) that has brought us to our knees. Do you remember when the people of the world REVERED the USA? I do! And I know why it did, too. We are at a dangerous CROSSROADS. The literal Devil waits at the end of the short road. We must stop and completely rethink what made the USA great. People who consider themselves Liberal will flock to to be part of another Great USA "revival". |
