CF,
2016 is going to be a whole different ballgame! If the conservatives don't come to their senses and go to someone like Christie or perhaps, God forbid, even Jeb Bush, this whole political process is just going to continue to spiral downhill. We need two political parties with some sense about them. It is not good to have to go with the Democrats every time out of nothing more than the unfortunate fact that they are the default option! We could very easily vote for Chris Christie in 2016 if he keeps his head! Unfortunately, however, the wingnuts who control so much of the Republican party machinery are not going to go away and are probably simply going to insist on even more ideological purity as the answer as to why they did not win the past elections. Less taxes and less government is their answer to everything!
The neoconservatives have had the idea for the last couple of decades that if they cannot govern then no one lese is going to be able to due to their road block building efforts! We will know by the end of the year just how much they will acknowledge that they lost the election or not! One of President Obama's central campaign themes was that taxes would have to go up on the rich. If the right does not bow to the electorates will on that single issue then they will not bow to anything that lies ahead!
IOVHO,
Regards,
Joe
To say that "God exists" is the greatest understatement ever made across space and time.
