REPUBLICANS: "My God, what (an effing) mess---A loss is what the GOP's political class NOW expects."

32. Long Overdue...

This inept and corrupt party has been robbing Peter to pay Paul since the Goldwater days. From the Southern Strategy to the slash and burn games of Ailes, Atwater and Rove have turned this party inside out in its all out lust for power at all costs. It now stands at the fringes and fractured as the rhetoric has pushed it off the political abyss. It's alienated large blocs of Americans from blacks and Hispanics to Women...all groups that vote (note to lurking Freepers: there are more than just 10 ammendments in the Constitution) and stands on the wrong side of virtually every major issue of the day.

The fracturing has been going on for years as the "establishment" who control the purse-strings and used to be able to control the various factions that helped it win elections and gain power have become a monster. The teabaggers who were useful idiots in helping the party win back the House in 2010 is now creating a mess of the primaries (as I had expected) and will not go away quietly or fall in line come November. No matter who "wins" the nomination, the party is so divided, it will lose.

The big question is how far down the food chain this occurs. Will there also be backlashes against the heavy-handed rushpublican legislatures in the Midwest? Will the stupidity and arrogance of the teabaggers in the House lead to them being tossed out en masse? And will the Paulbots go third party and really throw a wrench in whomever the rushpublican nominee is?

Democrats should not be complacent. There are still plenty of stupid out there...ready to vote against their interests so the need to GOTV and work hard to get Democrats elected on all levels is critical. The worse the rushpublican loss in November, the worse the imposion to follow.
