15. They're coasting and they're running out of momentum.

The Tea Party gave them a little boost but that's fizzling. They don't show much in the way of coordination, IMO. And they are pissing off all the groups they need to add to their 'white man power' guild and they don't seem to understand how to reverse that.

I think 2014 will see more losses for Republicans. I could be wrong, of course, but I don't see any kind of 'master plan' in play.

Palin/Romney/Ryan should be evidence enough of that.

Even the IRS 'scandal' is starting to hurt them just like Benghazi did. Except with their base. That's the only group they have going for them -the hard-core white guy base. And it's dying out.

Yep, this is like the Union/Hippie battle for the Democratic Party that started in 1968... WCGreen Jun 2013 #8

If that is the case, and I don't believe it is, is doesn't speak well for the Democrats. NCTraveler Jun 2013 #9

I see it as the first big push for "fair" tax and abolition of the IRS as we know it. SQUEE Jun 2013 #14
