What would it take to make the GOP a "coalition" party like the Democrats?

[thanatos144]

I love when the lefties here sound off on how to "fix" the republican party...
And their answer is always that it needs to be more like the democrat party......

HUH?

No mainstream Republican here as said that at all. Not once.

Your not a republican you lying ****.

 

[thanatos144]

I really dont think the answer for the republican party is tpo be more like democrats seeing as they are the party that nationalized racism.

true, I think RW is a jake snarky sock. notice that they are never active on the board at the same time and the both do nothing but post dem/lib talking points and lies.

the dem party is the party of pandering and lying.

 

[rightwinger]

the dems broaden their appeal by lying and pandering. The GOP will broaden its appeal by restating constitutional principles and real freedom.

The GOP will broaden its appeal by restating constitutional principles and real freedom

You really think bumper sticker slogans are going to get people to vote Republican?

People want action. They want real strategies to resolve real problems

Republicans give them none of it

Really, trying to stop the worst piece of legislation in our history is not taking action?

standing up for sane fiscal policy is not taking action?

calling out the obama admin for its lies and incompetence is not taking action?

passing multiple sane budget bills is not taking action?

You say we need "strategies to resolve real problems". The only "real problem" we have is a federal government that is too large and too powerful and spends too much money---fix that and the country will be just fine.

the so-called "real problems" that the dem/libs talk about are not problems, but rather opportunities for the socialists and statists to take away more individual freedom.

No it is not.

Shutting down government due to an Obamacare obsession is not taking action. Taking action would involve actually doing something, ANYTHING, to improve our healthcare system

Too much to ask from the Party of NO

Dont forget thyey are the party that always calls others race traitors.

Too many times political party labels are used in lieu of the liberal-conservative label. The Democratic party, at one time, had a large contingent of conservatives, the Southern bloc. The bloc was known as the solid-south and were Democratic only because Lincoln was a Republican. It was hard for Democrats to let the South go but after WWII the Democratic party began passing bills that alienated the Solid South and they began leaving the Democratic party and ended up in the Republican party. But even there, some of the old conservatives are changing and deciding American will never go back to slavery and that their economic-well-being is more important than race and someday they will vote Democratic.
The Republican tent grows smaller.

Rules violation, Redfish. Don't do it again is my best advice to you.

Thanatos and you cannot be socks, because nobody could privately admit to themselves that they have lowered themselves by owning you.

 

[JakeStarkey]

What is funny is that a puppet could make Thanatos or Redfish look stupid.

We are eliminating the far right's control of the caucus selections here in Utah, which will open up the process sensible citizens.

 

[Nosmo King]

Let me make this as simple as possible even a Liberal retard like dean would understand. WE DON'T WANT THE GOP TO BE ANOTHER ******* ARM OF THE DEMOCRAP PARTY YOU MORONS!!!!!!

Well then I suggest you just keep bringing the bad ass and see how many elections you win!

Appealing to angry white men may sound like a winning strategy if you're indeed an angry white man. But they aren't making angry white men as fast as they are making minorities, educated people and Latinos. Those are tomorrow's voters. If the Republicans enjoy being a niche party, so be it. But gaining the power to advance your agenda only comes with votes.

thats what you libtardians don't get, its not just angry white men, its angry white, black, and asian women, its angry white, black, and asian men, its old and young, its rich and poor.

virtually every demographic is pissed at what the dem/libs (and some rinos) are doing to our country. 2014 and 2016 will see major changes in both houses of congress and, if the country is to survive, a true compassionate conservative in the white house.

Check the polls. You are right. Everyone is angry. But the target of their anger is the irresponsible Tea Party faction. Since that faction picked up their luggage at baggage claim at Dulles, we have careened from fiscal crisis to fiscal crisis, heard the President of the United States called a liar to his face on the floor of the congress, shut down the government and flirted with wrecking our credit rating. All because the Tea Party can pick a fight, but doesn't know how to win one.

I suggest you keep your head buried firmly in the sand, ignore what the people are actually saying and keep bringing the bad ass attitude. That will hasten your political demise thus allowing the grown ups to run the federal government.

A conservative isn't a racist. that we leave to you liberals.

The worst piece of legislation in our history? Really??? Worse than Prohibition? Worse than 3/5 of a person? Worse than the Alien and Sedition Act?

Standing up for sane fiscal policy? Really?? Shutting down the federal government in a fit of pique and resulting in a $24 billion lose in economic activity? Flirting not once, but twice with wrecking the federal credit rating? Please show me the sanity in those fiscal moves!

Calling out Obama for incompetence and lies? Does that include shouting "LIAR!" at him during an address before a joint session of congress? Is that what the American people should take for responsible governance?

Sane budgets? We are now saddled with an across the board spending cuts that were administered with a chainsaw when a scalpel would be more appropriate. Federal agencies are not funded so that their mandates can be fulfilled. So when food and drugs go uninspected, research cannot be fully conducted and law enforcement suffers from unwarranted cutbacks, show me the sanity.

 

[Harry Dresden]

No, they don't count

Because as a party, the Republicans are slipping further and further behind in appealing to minorities
They think they can resolve it by trotting out some minority faces. That it will make it all better somehow
But it is the narrow mindedness, the meanness when it comes to minorities that drive them away from the once grand old party

RW....the "Latinos" vote for the Democrats....but they sure as hell don't respect the Party........its a choice between a Party who says to their faces they don't particularly care for them or one that tells them to their faces how they are for them....but behind their backs its.....but please just don't move into my Neighborhood..... they get that......someday when they take over the party and make it theirs,and they will......the white elites will leave that party pretty quick.....

Who cares?

Every major demographic has their own political agenda and right now the agenda of blacks, hispanics, jews, muslims, gays and young people does not include the Republican Party

That is what this thread is about as well as the fact that the Republicans are doing nothing to broaden their appeal

who cares?....well at least you admit your party is only using them for votes....thanx for being honest.....many of your Fellows would never admit that....i would get a song and dance about ....."how we actually care and how full of shit i am"....

and yet you just got through telling me that Democrats dont give a shit if they are using a group of people as long as they get their votes.....how long do you think that will last?...

Hispanics are becoming a major political force in this country. Both at a local level and a national level.
They will form a major part of future Democratic Platforms. It is inevitable and that is how politics work

Republicans choose to not only ignore that vote but to alienate it

It is at their own peril

Hispanics in general are religious, family oriented, and hard working. They fit much better in the GOP than the lib/dems.

Dem policies are alienating demographics by treating them like sheep and taking their money.

Obama shut down 15% of the govt, obama put up barricades. the TP members of the house do not have that power.

ACA is the worst piece of legislation in MODERN history---happy now?

Obama decided which agencies to defund for the sequester, not the GOP members of the house. If you got tainted pork chops blame obama.

By nature, most Hispanics tend to more Conservative in nature. Very religious, hard working, strong family structure, anti-abortion. Republicans have to work very hard to drive them away .....and yet only 30% vote Republican

Why? Hispanics are also proud of their culture and Conservatives go out of their way to offend that culture

the only people that you and RW make look stupid are yourselves---and you do it every day.
