Latest Political Fodder
Tuesday, October 28, 2008
With 7 days before the election, the GOP are pulling no punches in their attacks on Obama and the democrats. Every day its a new socialist charge and even a communist one from the idiot Sen. Mel Martinez down in Florida. It started with Palin, then moved to a bunch of surrogates and onto congress and the senate. It amazes me how the GOP became so unhinged, so sloppy and off message. This is supposed to be the party of lemmings where everyone follows the leader and never deviates. Fortunately those days are over and moderate repubs are attaching themselves to Obama and distancing from Bush and McCain. They will end up losing their seats but at least it was a valiant effort. On the flip side, the bigots of the party are aligning themselves with Palin and throwing bombs left and right. They don't seem to care and figure if they are going down they will go down taking as many people with them. I am not sure if they realize they are losing a whole generation of people and with the current path will solidify their future in the minority. The Real America, Pro America rhetoric may be good for the base but it does no justice when it comes to bringing new people into the fold.
There are talks of excommunication in the GOP, if you trash Palin or endorse Obama its over for you. And to think that just a few years ago Karl Rove thought he was on track to establish a permanent republican majority. There are people who actually believe Palin is the future of the party. Sorry to burst your bubble but Romney is waiting in the wings and will stop at nothing to regain top dog. I would love to Romney duke it out with Palin, both will sink to news lows and use hate and fear to secure their position. If you though the "latte liberals" vs "working class" was bad just wait for the Romney/Palin show.
