Agreed, but they still don't see it. They continue to depend on misrepresentation and obstruction, as though that will be enough to save them from themselves. Not a terribly inspired strategy.

This is not 1993. What could happen next year, you never know — the depth limits of the Demmies have been far from reached yet (sadly for the USA and Americans). Nobody can predict another 1994. But the open question remains how bad will the Dems get and how alien-far to the left will they attempt to go.

Imagine if Bush or McCain were in office right now, and the economy was in the shape it's in now. It would give the most apocalyptic lunatics associated with “climate change” some serious competition.

Imagine if Bush or McCain were in office right now, and the “stimulus” and other bungled efforts, and examples of mischief by the executive branch as well as the same party in Congress were as they are now, and producing the results they do. Nobody would be rushing to slander the public or Fox News out of desperation, as some currently are doing.

Imagine of Bush or McCain had people in his administration (though it never would be) with as toxic political past baggage, even fairly recent controversial behavior and statements, as has happened already this year in the Obama administration (leading at least once to obvious departure in disgrace, in Van Jones's case). Would would the Usual Suspects be doing, orders of magnitude greater (with ethics inverted, i.e., zero or negative), if this were a Republican administration?

Hope, that always was a degenerate concept this time around. Change, we know is hypocrisy, et cetera.

Election-wise, the Reps are a joke. No leadership at any level. No candidate to offer. No future in site. Who are the new young up and coming Reps?

Obama could be polling at 40% in 2012 and still win.

Hope and change!
