"If I had a dollar for every time someone predicted the demise of the Republican party I'd be a rich rich woman. Nixon's resignation in 1974 -- Ronald Reagan 6 years later. There's too much gravy to be made by keeping both major political parties at each other's throats. It keeps the unwashed masses believing we still have a Democracy."

"If I had a dollar for every time someone" declared this: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10022453600

...I'd be rich too. The fact is extremism is tearing apart the Republican Party, and President Obama's ability to stay focused is keeping them boxed in.

The Democratic Party is stronger than ever. Oh, there will be those fanning the anti-Democratic flames, but they're mostly gunning for the President, and he isn't running again. He will however be using his coattails to strengthen the party. There will not be a repeat of 2010 in 2014...lessons learned and all.
