(11,555 posts)Your view is to simply let the crazies run things further into the ground, then you "think" a new kind of democratic party will come to be that will take things whatever way you want. My fear is that once you let the crazies take control, the damage they will do will make what George W. did minor in comparison.
Doing it all your way, letting the crazies win elections and take control, will also allow them to put new Supreme court judges on the bench. Can you guess what kind of judges they will be? Your plan would allow the crazies to tear down everything that has been accomplished since Obama took office, and contrary to you opinion he is a total failure, he has done a lot to fix the mess Bush left him. The mess Bush left will take longer than Obama's term to fix, and if you allow a crazy teapublican in the WH, along with a congress ran by nuts like Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, and the other morons from the tea party gang, they will undo everything and make it far worse. Then even if you scenario works out and the crazies get voted out of office down the road, how long will it be before we can clean up the mess "they" left along with all the things they would undo, like health care reform, women's rights, programs that help the needy, etc.?
Working to find better candidates for congress and the WH "NOW" would do a lot more towards fixing things than letting the teabaggers run the country into the ground and the hope that the new party you talk about will be able to fix the mess they leave this country in.
