Indeed. Good thing it isn't happening.Indeed. The GOP is becoming the mirror image of what the Democrats were in the period between the Civil War and the Great Depression. That isn't a good thing.
You want the GOP to become a liberal party.If the Republicans are to continue as a national party and also remain a conservative party, the meaning of "conservative" has to be redefined to something resembling, as it happens, your own political positions, abandoning the culture-war stuff that appeals to the right-wing fringe as presently constituted. Another way to put that is that the GOP can only remain a national party if it abandons southern dominance. Compete with the Democrats in the Northeast, Midwest, and West Coast (which were originally Republican areas, please note) by campaigning on REASONABLE, LOGICAL, and FACT-BASED conservative positions (that IS possible, you know), and let the South either be up for grabs or let a third party represent it.
There are a few Republicans today who can show which way to go. Notable are GOP representatives from New England, like Cynthia Snow and Scott Brown. Also worthy of attention is former governor Arnold Schwarzenegger of California. Of course, a lot of Republicans regard these politicians as RINOs. As long as that's true, the party is on a collision course with reality.

Your problem is you ignore reality in favor of leftist talking points, which bear little resemblance to reality.

We have one of those. We don't need two.
Leftists have an amazing capacity for self-deception. Coupled with their natural gullibility, they can make themselves believe absolutely anything, no matter how stupid.Indeed.

We have one of those. We don't need two.
These people on the left make things up so they can feel better about their unpopular agenda.
We have one guy claiming Texas is going to become blue because of all the illegals. He insists all minorities vote in lockstep for democrats.
We have another poster insisting the GOP is the same as the democrat party of the mid to late 19th century.
Neither poster has a shred of evidence what they state is true. The rely on "I posted it. Therefore it must be true and the rest of you will accept it without question".
What democrats will not admit is their party's voting base resides in large urban centers. For example, New York. 60% of the state's population lives within 40 miles of Times Square. The Downstate has always been a democrat stronghold.
The democrats do not even bother campaigning Upstate. Not because there aren't any democrat voters, but because they don't have to in order to win.
No real Republican is concerned with the jabberings of far horizon reactionaries like those above. They, like parrots, offer only squawks and shit for the ground.
Keep jabbering, little far righty birds (and TeaPots and Little Engines Who Couldn't).You will vote for Romney if you have any slight hope of having any influence on majority politics.
Fakey Jake, representing the Noam Chomsky faction of the GOP...Kim Jong Il was to the right of you, fakey.
That is exactly why you will vote GOP to have any influence in the future.
What an incredibly shallow commentary by you, Uncensored.
And who cares?
Ignore? Who knew?
This fact is simple: the Santorums and the Palins can never draw middle America, and without those scores of millions of vote, the GOP can't win the Presidency.
Either we GOP learn to work together, or we don't deserve to win.

A month ago, 40% of independents said they would back Obama over Romney today 51% say they would, while the number expressing support for Romney has slipped from 50% to 42%.
Over the course of the campaign, Romneys image among independent voters has suffered substantially. Most notably, the number who believe he is honest and trustworthy has fallen from 53% to 41%, while the number who say he is not has risen from 32% to 45%.

Give me someone I can work for, and I will.
Otherwise, we were probably going to get four more years of Obama anyway. I can sit this one out and be just fine.
Look, Romney is a weak candidate. Despite his millions and the efforts of the GOP Establishment, the rank and file would rather have anyone else.
Santorum has gone from 4% in December, to being the "Frontrunner" now. I don't think it will last. But it shows that there is no love for Romney.
And if Republicans don't like what they see, why will independents.

The better people get to know Romney, the less they like him.
Along with wishing the 17th amendment was repealed, Conservatives LOVE the Electoral College.
Seems they don't want democracy ANYWHERE near the United States of America.
You want the GOP to become a liberal party.

Ignore is for cowards.
Oh, I ignore 90% of the idiocy you post, but I've never put you on ignore - and never will.

The GOP wins by UNIFYING behind "Not Obama."

You're right, we dont, democracy is the tyranny of the many imposed on the few.
Wins what?
The country likes Obama..
with the exception of you guys..and you guys are in the minority.
Which is why you guys are so desperate to suppress the vote.
The majority of United States citizens are not you guys.
The "country" does not "detest" the president. he still beats every one of your potential nominees in head to head match up.
so much for "detests".
stop projecting your own lunacy.
RealClearPolitics - President Obama vs. Republican Candidates
btw, his RPC average job approval is at almost 49%
RealClearPolitics - Election Other - President Obama Job Approval
Wins what?
The 2012 presidential race.
The country likes Obama..
The country detests Obama. A rabid core of partisans - you - worship him as a god, but overall, he is unpopular.
Bullshit.
Which is why you guys are so desperate to suppress the vote.
ROFL
Already cooking up the excuses, I see. (The Messiah® only lost because THEY suppressed the vote!)
The majority of United States citizens are not you guys.
Then why are you so desperate to have non-citizens vote?
Obama will lose in November.
Obama won't lose.
You can bank on that.
