Four More Years

We thought it was a fluke the first time around, when a "community activist" got himself elected as President of the greatest nation on the planet. So, what do we make of it happening again... four years later? Four years of stagnation, lies, partisanship, and a total lack of transparency. What happened?

Campaigning

Take the fucking gloves off! The GOP falls all over itself, playing nicey nice, so as not to offend the delicate sensibilities of Independents, moderates, and women. Guess what? They aren't voting for the Republican anyway! You just lost to the worst President of all time because you didn't want to seem like a big meanie.

Theocons

Nationally, the Republican Party is dead as we know it. Good! The Religious Right has undermined the GOP for the last two Presidential races. Leave talk of abortion, birth control, and gay rights out of my politics! Keep it in your church, or start your own political party.

GOP

None of the above matters if the GOP doesn't reinvent itself. Today's majority is not looking for solutions to problems. The less they know about problems, the better. To them, it's all about emotions. Prey on their fears and beliefs. If they don't have any, invent some for them, just as the Dems would.

The ten million new voters since 2008 skewed much younger and non-white. The opposite of the GOP... old and white. Get out there and show Latinos, Jews, and women why the Republican Party is the party for working, tax paying, voters. Or, do nothing, and lose national elections until they stop having them.
