I think the GOP have thoroughly fucked themselves, and the Dems look good by comparison.

all i can say is

i wish the election was last month
not 11 months from now

theres a lot of room for the left to fumble around between now and then

I'm still curious if in Smoker4's world, Santorum still has a chance in hell of retaining his senate seat.

Pennsylvanians are known for their near-universal love for religious zealot right-wingers.

The GOP at least has a direction, even though it's headed toward fascism, it still has a direction. The Democrats have no direction. They only focus their efforts on bashing Bush and the Republicans, not coming up with any ideas of their own. What's sad is that we have to choose the lesser of the two evils when we vote, instead of voting for a candidate that will help force the federal government to uphold the Constitution instead of subverting it.

Quote :

"Let me say a few words about important values we must demonstrate while all of us serve in government. First, we must always maintain the highest ethical standards. We must always ask ourselves not only what is legal, but what is right. There is no goal of government worth accomplishing if it cannot be accomplished with integrity. Second, I want us to set an example of humility. As you work for the federal government there is no excuse for arrogance, and there’s never a reason to show disrespect for others. A new tone in Washington must begin with decency and fairness. I want everyone who represents our government to be known for these values. "

Sure, but nothing groundbreaking. Seat losses are a virtual certainty.

i kinda hope the GOP gets beaten up just badly enough to cause some party reallignment for lesser sucking, but not badly enough that the Dems have control of either house of Congress.

1/31/2006 1:05:24 AM

I'm going to go out on a lim here and say that nothing will happen to the GOP.

The democratic party is in shambles with no clear vision, leadership, or any amount of unity.

I am going to form the Lemon Party.

We can get lots of press on TV and then tell people our website is lemonparty.org

what does my article have to do with this thread?

2/20/2006 9:59:57 PM

well your article would seem to promote A or B -- I'm just seeing if it changed anyone's mind

it pales in comparison to Deadeye Dick Cheney though, surely that's worth at least a half dozen "Completely and totally fucked" votes...

2/20/2006 10:03:02 PM

wow...so, if my article changed anyone's mind (or even influenced anyone), it has to show up in your thread. how very Rove of you.
