The Republicans seem to feel that the Democratic majority rule in America has weakened their enemies. May be. One thing is sure. Any loss of popularity among Democratic politicians has not, so far, generated any increased support for the Republicans and it's clear that the Republican base has moved away from any trace of real conservatism into a realm of deep, dreamy, reactionary longing for a past rooted in racism, segregation and restrictive, fundamental Christianity that the majority in this country will unlikely share in.
Next year we will have mid term elections. It doesn't seem to me that the Republicans are going to put forward candidates likely to attract independent voters in large enough numbers to make the kind of gains they need to make a difference in Congress. It's possible that a more fiscally conservative batch of Democrats will gain election or that third parties will field attractive and successful candidates.
Many Rightist pundits are saying that Barry O will be a one term wonder. Republican aspirants to the Presidency at this point cannot be taken seriously. Sarah Palin, Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich are all clearly interested but I can't see them getting the kind of support they need for a serious run. The Arky Bible boy, Huckybuck, doesn't have enough money to get on that train again. Mormon Mitt has already spent as much of his own money on the quest as he cares to. I think both of them are done. I could be wrong. Of all the Republican brood, I like that Cantor whip boy from the Old Dominion best. It's been a long time since the "Mother of Presidents" pushed one out for us. It may be about time again. He is a lot like George Bush, only he's not a retard, God Bless him. He's a Jew and that will bring money and brains into the game. The Republicans need both badly for the next contest. Even so, I don't see him beating the Commie, Kenyan Mudman. It's always possible that Obama will step down after four years and pass the baton to Hilary. He'd have to be hurting a lot worse than he is now to do that. It's an option for him though. I'm sure Hil' would man up.
Currently, the Republicans are staking everything they've got on the claims of the Birthers, fighting universal health care and rolling back the clock on Women's reproductive and Gay rights. They are letting Wingnuts like Orly Taitz and Glenn Beck build a sty and fill it full of the kind of shit that isn't going to attract a lot of fellow travelers to climb in with them.
Their go to reserve strategy seems to be portraying Michelle as a jungle gorilla, dressed up like Marie Antoinette, trailing her two little porch monkey dauphinettes behind, stridently screaming.
"Let them eat bananas!"
It's going to be fun to watch. There's still a lot of time left. The smell of retard revolution is wafting from the diapers of the faithful. Flip the Man the ol' sixth finger boys and girls. Sharpen your banjos. Gird yourselves with the drool bibs of truth. Double up on your anti convulsives. Don your protective headgear. Climb aboard the short bus of freedom. Join the fight to take back this great land, from the Death Panel Eugeniscists, who seek to enslave and kill us all.
