Amen. Question. What do you get when you have a presdential hopeful that lies? Answer. You get a president that lies. Botta Boom.
Romney didn't get elected because we've reached the tipping point of people wanting money and services from the government for government to make all their decisions for them. Freedom isn't important to half the country. They want stuff. And if you have it, they want yours. There's only one Party now. The GiveAway Party. GOP is now dead (and I'm a Republican). Why? Because the only way for the GOP to compete...EVER...is to give away stuff. It's is now the American (or illegal American) way.
My heart is heavy for our Country, or rather the loss of it.
Romney got 60% of the White Vote.
Last time the GOP got such a high % was 1988 and Bush 41 got 400 electoral votes.
Last night 60% of the white vote meant 200 electoral votes.
The GOP scares away latinos, women and young people who are attracted to the message of smaller government, but then get freaked out by the religion, gay-bashing, immigrant-bashing and the abortion issue.
That is why the the GOP loses in Presidential elections.
The message of smaller governemnt works, it's all the social issue shit that gets in the way.
Mitch Daniels said 2 years ago that Republicans need to DROP all discussion of stupid social issues and build a majority party based on small gov't.
He was right.
All the conservative pundits who fought him 2 years ago were proven wrong last night.
Romney-Ryan got 65% of the senior vote. 65%.
That is huge and it proves that Medicare scare tactics by Pelosi and company don't work. This is a pretty big deal as we are going to be forced to deal with Medicare's $50 trillion unfunded liability.
My point is this, if the GOP drops the abortion stance (and other social views) from the platform, where are those voters going to go? They aren't going to all of a sudden vote Democrat. Republican leaders need to get some balls and tell the social conservative wing to back off for the good of the party, otherwise, they are not going to see the White House very much in the next 25 years
This isn't 1983 anymore with Jerry Fallwell roaming the halls. It's a new day with new demographics, which Republicans learned last night.
Republican turnout was down across the board. Party needs to change or more losses coming. Anger won't cut it.
