  1. First, I don't think 90% of Americans had any idea what the deal was with Libya.. its sad, but I am sure internal polls/ intel led the Romney campaign to abondaon talking about Libya because it didn't sway the needle... The GOP is in a pinch, idealogically. You have a country where a growing number of citizens feel that it is ok that that illegal immigrant flow across the border as they please, for the most part. the Republican stance has been to secure the borders of this country. How do you reconcile that position, when the other major political party will smear you for doing that the Federal Government is ennumerrated to do, and it do it convincingly? Do you ease you position on Immigration? Do you abandon your principles and duties? Additonally the GOP is probably going to have to re-think their position on some social issues if they really want to be the party of small government. Abortion- I know they will never change their minds about it, I don't disgaree with their position, but they may have to stop talking overturn R v. W and other womens choice issue, or at least may them less central in their campaign... also on the Gay Marriage front, alot more people in the country are becoming acepting of the notion of two homo's getting married- it is hard to appeal to that growing segment of the populcation when the party of small government is talkign about amedning the Consititution to define marriage. To me, the GOP needs to get back to brass tacks- it might behoove them to adopt a Libertarian stance on some social issues, therby not condoning but not intruding, and get back to convincing the American People, and there are lot of them out there, that a reduction in size and scope of the Government is what we need to do to survivie and thrive....
  2. But isn't that how capitalism works? Financially unhealthy compaines either sink or swim, and do so with private capital? So you save an unhealthy company, whom more than likely will be back in the same place at some point in the future??? I don't think in free market economies cherry picked companies get sctructured bankruptcies and equity infusion from taxpayers, only to come out with the same Union issues as it went in, if not more.. Its great we saved the jobs, but you have to wonder the consequences of that kind of intursion into the car industry

  19. I didn't read the article, but I will say Liberals. A friend cornered me today and asked "did you vote yes on tax increases to build more schools?".... I told her no, I didn't. She flipped her **** about the kids, and this and that... I didn't have the heart to tell her I didn't care.
  20. Its amazing she lost... with 14% unemployment- I seem to remember the social issues dragged her down and beat her silly in that contest.
  21. Obama/ Biden have a ground Army in Denver the last two weeks. I am thinking of getting some spray paint downstairs and mocking up a RR sign for the yard just so they will leave us alone.

  24. I met John Kerry when he was running, his team set-up a mock interview stage in my office area- they never used it, it was kind of crazy- I also met Ted Kennedy when he was here for the DNC...he was very nice, and very sincere... even remebered my name when we said goodbye a few days later. But I have never attended a rally... I have this thing during the day called a Job that keep sme away... Oh, wait- there was rally I could see outside my window when Hilllary was running in the primary, does that count?
  25. It will be interesting to see how on target Silver is.... I read his blog daily, it's a great opportunity to learn how all this polling and prediction stuff works... He still maintains this race is VERY close, given his NFL comparison the other day...
