4. Funny, the repubs claim Romney is ahead

On a conservative forum that I frequent from time to time, they all cite piles of polls showing Romney in the lead. Give me a little bit of time an I'll see if I can pull up their data.

I was saying years ago that Obama would win this election. During the republican primaries, I really started to get a warm and fuzzy about it when I saw the field of potential candidates. The republican party, as we know it, is dying. Assuming that they lose this election, 2016 is going to be a major formative year for them. I was reading an article recently about the changing minority demographic in the US. Minorities tend to vote more in favor of liberal policies than conservative. As the percentage of America's population becomes more "minority" dominated (I guess if they are a majority, minorities aren't a minority?) politics will have to shift more liberal. If the Republicans want any semblence of power in the future, they'll have to drop some of their conservative positions and pick up some liberal ones.

I fully believe that the radical right surge we've seen in the republican party is them aknowledging that this election might be their last chance to run and impliment a strongly conservative platform like this. Even if they win this presidential election, they are done.
