The GOP lost this election cycle, badly, I mean badly,
While all indications were that the American public was disappointed in this president, after three years of what they saw as left wingist, socialistic, policies, (to a faction of the public) it's clear that in a short nine months, the GOP was able to garner more disappointment and disgust among the independent voting public.
The women's issues:
This divided a country, it divided families and it created an un-necessary discord which became quite obvious to be a tool of political expendiency, even Republican women voted against Akins and Murdouck, with no surprise I might add.
But it became a rallying cry for the right to show themselves as under attack, and the underdog of what's right and good.
It didn't work
The economy;
While the transparency of this president to fund a vital industry, the automotive industry, became a sticking point of criticism by the GOP, they themselves could not defend their own math; Clinton had it right, it's all in the arithmetic".
There was none, rather it was more of "In God we Trust" until after the election.
The indies didn't like and some republicans too, while they may not like this president, they know, buying the car without kicking the tires just ain't part of free market principles,
Romney lost them with his trust me until after the election statements.
The House;
The house was filled with rancid and rabidly insane Tea party candidates which morph and transmorgified the original movement under Bush; it was all about wasteful spending and balancing the budget, it became looking for subversives in the Government, and speculation on the number of Communists in the Congress,
Thank you Michelle and Allen
Moreover, some candidates began to believe their own myths; One Joe Walsh could be seen screaming an yelling at his constitutents in almost every single video, the deplorable treatment of Senators who earned their gravitas, Arlen Specter, at town hall meetings showed how deeply the low rent attitude of the GOP had become.
it was okay to burn a president in effigy, hang that president in effigy, this is the stuff of the Middle Eastern lunatics, but there were people who were not going to admit that
That's okay, the vote count and the electoral college admitted it for them.
The GOP "retained" the house, they lost seats in the house, states that were heretofore considered untouchable went blue, while the blue states became royal blue,
You have to realize that the Democrats now have over 200 seats in the house, this doesn't bode well for the GOP in 2014.
But then again, I question the whole definition of GOP these days.
Now, Fiscal cliff, it was clear this president was going to address the fiscal cliff after the election, and the GOP in it's lack of wisdom, stated "The Same Thing".
This is the Waterloo, they are forced now to address what's been their "Palenstine" for many election cycles, ever since they vote in Bush and his mortgage legislation of zero down, jumbo, Revered Ike "Pie in the Sky" bull=shit.
Yes, the GOP went bi-polar, from wanton spending to tightening the fiscal spincter to the point of total systemic infection.
So let's be clear, the GOP lost, it's time for them to look inward angel and heal themselves.
if they don't, they will lose again,
In 2014, and this time,
it WILL be a blood bath.
Maybe Limbaugh can then retire and start writing his own "Turner Diaries"? after all, he's definitely going to feel the pinch of this beauty contest gone terribly wrong.
