How Conservatism Killed The GOP

Let's broaden the question a bit to get a better look.

Four open Republican governorships are leaning Democratic. Two open Democrat senate seats lean Republican and three Republican senate seats lean Republican. Three Dem senate seats are safe and six Rep senate seats are safe with one Dem senate seat apparent safe for Republicans.

Republicans will pick up seats, which is nothing new. The only question is how many. Pubs will not take the Senate and possibly may take the House.
 
Not at all. Auto, you are mistaking perception for reality. Americans are upset with both parties, but the sad thing they want it the cheap way, the way they don't have to suffer for their greed. And the Dems, the Pubs, and the Tea Party cannot provide a cheap answer.

So, no, don't confuse reality of frustration for the perception of a great conservative uprising.

It is anything but.

Yes they are upset with both parties. It is why I voted write in, in 2008 I wrote in mickey for pres and daffy duck for VP. I will be damn. They won.

But they are upset at the liberal policies of both parties. So to say its is conservatism is where the delusion takes hold. Just for clarification.

That is your misconception. They are upset they cannot live the good life without unending credit, and both parties are at fault for that. This has nothing to do with liberalism or conservatism. It has to do about greed.
 
LOL, we should start a thread about how the Commies took over the Democrat party and is NOW KILLING IT.

just look at the Obama's and his COMRADES in Arms poll numbers.:lol:
 
I gave you the numbers. What are you unhappy about? That it will not be as massive sweep as you hope will be disappointing for you, I know.

Go to RealClearPolitics, Steph, and give us numbers, honey.

The only Democrats who have a chance of winning have made a credible case that they are nothing like their leadership.

What stupid comments. But go for it. You will fit with Jack Fate, Stephanie, and bigreb. What a hoot.

Other than Pelosi and districts like hers, name some Democrats who are going to the wall for their record over the past two years.

Alan Grayson?
 
You really have no idea, do you? Well, time well tell, and I will save this discussion, and we can talk about it again after election.
 
You know, they just came out with one of those "report card polls" giving grades to the government......

President Obama - C

Congress overall - C

Democrats - C-

Republicans - D+

Nope, people have a more favorable opinion of Obama and the Dems than the GOP.
 
If this were true, you'd think Dems would be running on a pro-Obamacare and $trillion deficit platform.

They're toast.
 
Soggy, you don't get it. The Dems are not running on the last two years as a referendum because they don't have to. They are running on "Do you really want to go back to what the Republican Party offered?" The platform for America has been almost totally ignored by the electorate. It should be.
 
SORRY but the GOP has not been dominated by Conservatives since WFB and his Cold Warriors took it over under the idea that "we have got to accept Big Government... for neither an offensive nor a defensive war can be waged... except through the instrumentality of a totalitarian bureaucracy within our shores."
