(65,616 posts)I do believe in leaders. Heroes...not so much. Growing up there were many Reagan Democrats that were single issue. I think we might of run into some of them in Missouri. However by the time the GOP rolls around their latest con man the majority will get behind Hillary Clinton. IMNSHO.
We need to focus on parts of the party that should have left a long time ago. If Dixiecrats are still lingering, I would guess they would also be libertarian. I'm old enough to remember dealing with liberal republicans growing up. Those are your Paul supporters imo. Nobody should want that loon in office. It is back to writing in rusty can if I had no choice. We got 3 choices imo.
I get yelled at for saying who I think is going to win around here but I don't fucking care someone will either tsk me or guess who is going to win too. Good conversations.
I was wrong about the midterms. I was right about Obama both times although I said Hillary would beat him the first run term. I thought she had more national recognition.
We got this, they need to fix gerrymandering and election laws. Little fiefdoms are stupid, I grew up in Houston which was conservative bullshit central in the 1980s. Watched republicans saying one thing in the day time and another at night. Going to church on Sunday. Worshiping Reagan...and trashing Jimmy Carter. Not bashing, TRASHING.
My yellodog grandmother would come visit and she would curse at (ABC) Reagan and Kissinger on TV. Great education from a smart lady.
She knew her history on the GOP which is why I use the term the most.
LOL look at me rambling, have a good night.
