10. Karl Rove. and others telegraph their intentions .. if we are astute enough to see..

remember the U.S. attorney scandal in 06?.. false flag to justify the all these new voter ID laws.. look at the outlier issues being pushed by the republicans for the next plank of their platform..lately the lapdogs have been exposed, (alec et el) but a lot of damage has been done since the election of 10.. it will take years to clean up the mess...

having said that it seems to me that Willard will shoot himself in the foot.. in fact is unelectable barring a Major attack or something of that nature..even with unlimited money for Willard, President Obama is a class act that the Republicans can't match..

I'm look for battles in both houses... if the republicans have both houses.. the post office ends up privatized... the supreme court ends up being 6-3 instead of 4-5.. Dod-Frank ends up being toothless..

if there is any good news for us it's that changing demographics favor us.. but this election is in fact ours to loose.. we need to elect good people all up and down the slate.. that includes dog catchers,d and school boards.

these guys play the long game.. after all they have been at it since Nixon's southern strategy.. 4 years mean nothing to them now.. especially when they are so close..
