and Rove

The GOP has accepted the support of the TP and the anti-abortion and racist into their party to win and guess what, the true GOP is loosing its being. Let those groups go on their own and see if they can stand. Thank goodness the Dems saw fit not to accept their kind to take over our party. I don't understand why so many of the far right radicals votes against themselves. Now the platform of the repubs is tainted with the blood of the radicals no different than the muslim radical.

They waited until this weekend to try to demonstrate that there are still reasonable people in their party.

Snowe's op-ed, for example, gives the impression that she is oblivious to the Romney/GOP platform.

If Jeb was serious, he and others like him would have been working to ensure that the platform didn't scream: Luncay!

They have thrown everyone who isn't white, straight, and male under the bus and run over them multiple times just for good measure. They would have to purge the entire 'establishment' and completely stamp out all remnants of the Tea Party. It is going to take way more than an election cycle or two to undo the damage they've done to their 'brand'. They are still dangerous, but I don't see how the GOP survives after doubling down on ALL of their most extreme views for this election.

Your party is exactly what the majority of it wants it to be - white, old, mostly male with a few little fillies runnin' around battin' their eyelashes. It's definitely too late to do anything about it this year so let them have their party in Florida so they can look around at the people ranging from near-albino to slight-tan and pretend that this is what America should be. Don't take their 3 day fantasy, Jeb.

As Jon Stewart pointed out last week.

They want your Mom's "little brown ones" to self-deport.

You thought you were going to be the illunati, the smart one, the one that would bark the orders, when all along, you were a PAWN! It must make you sick to see the Koches throw gold on Rick Scott that you could not get. When the Devil is through with those who sell him their souls, they are discarded. Sad fact is, Charlie Crist, even though he was your toady, has a better shot of ever seeing Tallahasee again, because he knew when to change banners.

If you were not such a SOB, I could pity you.

Says the guy who chose Palin.

Too funny.

They've written off this year - Romney/Ryan is just a hail mary pass. Jeb in 2016 is a serious threat to win, regardless of how well Obama does this year and how good of a candidate that runs against him.

Jeb's playing moderate (which is total bullshit), so that next election cycle they can say, okay now we've come back to the center and are appealing to middle class voters - we understand the mistake we made with the going to far to the right. Again,, all bullshit, but a lot of people will believe it. Expect to see Jeb's face on TV a lot more in the next 4 years.

And that is terrifying.

He simply isn't conservative enough for them any more. Right now (though it's ridiculous to make any prediction now, of course) Ryan is the 2016 favorite.

And I highly doubt "another Bush" would sit well with most people.

He has the "name," which gives him the ultra-right credentials, so he doesn't have to pander to them. Romney did have to pander to them, because he didn't have those ultra-right credentials.

Jeb may not talk that way now or on the campaign trail, but they all know he is.

It was too soon now from Jeb to run, because the bad taste from gwb is still fresh in America's mouth. By 2016 most people will have forgotten, however.

Jeb is a serious threat. The Dems should start planning to run against him immediately after November is over.

you helped your brother steal an election and fill Grover Norquist's bathtub for him. Dude, you had a major role in leading the GOP over the precipice.

So does that mean your party is going to:

Renounce Reaganomics any year soon?

Police/regulate corporate criminals?

Support the First Amendment?

Stop wasteful spending on folly wars and corporate welfare?

Reach out to women, children, minorities? Support LBGTQI rights?

Stop cooking the Church and State Patty Melt?

Drive your party's bigots, warhawks, plutocrats and hatemongers out?

When in the hell is this ever going to happen?

The very people that run and fund your sorry bunch have just about zero interest in "Reaching Out". They're far more inclined to "pushing the country rightward whether they like it or not".

can agree with them.


It isn't about reaching out, it is about what they are dishing out.

to erase any memory of his eight year reign of terror

but they don't want to actually care. Before say the Reagan era they were able to con many into thinking they cared about them and their policies would help them. Today not so much. The idea isn't to appeal to people by being more active in changing their policies to fit reality, the idea is to be able to lie like they use to. It will be the same crap once their in office, they just won't be as open about how much they hate women, minorities, workers, unions... oh the good ole fake GOP days.
