| "The republicans have become crazy and the Democrats have become Republicans" |

I think that was Bill Maher's line.
I look to Bernie Sanders now. He's the only Roosevelt democrat in the senate. Maybe Feingold.

| 1. The GOP is being set up for FAILURE by their OWN....Hint...Look at their Front Runners and more |
|
important....their cloudy, Freedom Filled, Bait and Switch promises....
a lot of Americans died from Bushies empty promises...
The GOP is real deep doo doo and they noes it...hence their upscaling desperate measures of late....
Their past record of backing Bush for 2 terms reveals their selfish goals...
All for the Rich GOP and fuck the rest of us...
that includes a whole bunch of POOR GOP

| 2. The Republicans Have a Much Larger Bat-Shit Crazy Base Than the Democrats Do. |
|
There's no way we don't lose the Senate in 2010, and it would take a miracle to keep the White House in 2012.
Obama and the Democratic Party have fucked themselves right out of power. All those pissed off liberals are either going to stay home or (like me) vote for truly progressive candidates in 2010 and 2012. Only the kool-aid drinkers will be backing Dems in either of those elections. And since there will be more bat-shit crazy Republicans than bat-shit crazy Democrats voting...
It doesn't matter WHO the Repubs put up in the next two elections. Barring a miracle, they've got it.

Don't shoot the messenger. I didn't create this corrupt, one-party fuck up of a country...I just live here.

| 7. all they have to do is show up and all the dems/indep. have to do is |
|
stay home. don't expect zillions of them not to, especially the young ones. say what you will about older people, they always vote. it will be interesting to see if the tea baggers 86 a few repugs but it is stupid to assume it will happen to the extent that we need.
