Or the GOP may go the way of the Tories in England. This would make it an incentive to sabotage any and all relief the Obama Admin will try to accomplish over the next 4 years. They can’t allow the People to think that one party actually may be better at governing and finding practical solutions, instead of hubris….per the usual GOP M.O.

Come 2012 or 2016, the man elected president will be a Republican; the voters just like to change parties every so often.

It could also be a woman.

[...] While liberals, the media, and whiny psuedo-Republicans decry the end of the Republican party and the demise of the conservative movement (two different things), I look forward to a resurgent party and a re-invigorated conservatism. Why? You need look no further than Delaware Dem’s post at DelawareLiberal.net. [...]

In 1994, 2002 and 2004, the media were writing about the dying Democrats; in 1992, the media were writing about the dying Republicans. And in 2008, everyone is speculating about impending demise of the Republican Party again. It gets difficult to take such things seriously.

Come 2012 or 2016, the man elected president will be a Republican; the voters just like to change parties every so often.

Rebecca is right.

In 2012 our elected officials will be held accountable. They will need to say: this is what we did; this is where we’re going…

Otherwise November 4ths win will mean as little as two Sundays ago’s win over the Giants means now to Cowboy’s owner Jerry Jones.

Four years is a very long time in politics. There is somebody lurking out there that we’ve never heard of.

On the other hand, four years isn’t going to be long enough to fix all the stuff the Bushies broke, so Obama isn’t going to be in a strong position in 2012.

Let’s not get complacent here. We’ve witnessed their ability to rig elections and propagandize the electorate. There is no reason to believe that is going to change. We must remain vigilant and keep working.

I love “Yes We Did” but we haven’t. There is no time to sit back and enjoy our victory because they are already fighting us.

In Delaware we’ve got Dixiecrat Thurman Adams and in the U.S. Senate we’ve got the Hooverite-Southerners. We’ve seen how both can hobble our progressive agenda.

Sorry folks, our work is just beginning.

I’m still unclear on the direction of the Republicans. Right now they seem to be on the “we’re not Democrats” path.

Huckabee is the man I fear on the Right. It’s the charm.
