Workers, women, the poor, Latinos and Latinas, African Americans - and absolute catastrophic disaster - for two generations, if Romney gets two or more court picks. And our LGBT brothers and sister? Forget it. 45 years of progress in the toilet. Gone. A fucking horror.

A fucking horror.

The only people who would be doomed are the poor and middle class Americans and our children who would have to live with the consequences of a Romney presidency for the rest of their lives.

A deeply, deeply stupid article.

Reaganism is dying regardless. So it's not really a silver lining.

When Obama wins, the republican party will splinter into a "morals" and war branch and an economics branch . . . with the latter called the libertarian party.

I can't think of anything positive coming from a romney win.

The Supreme Court will be gone for at least a generation. The end of social security, medicare, and the middle class may take a whole lot longer to restore. And wars may bankrupt the country to a point where it never recovers and nation states including the United States are replaced by international corporate states.

The bushes and reagan that's it. If reagan was their bizarro FDR that makes bush 41 their Truman and the parallels kind of hold up he won an election he shouldn't have and presided over a the end of a big war. Then he left office and was not held in high esteem by his contemporaries but looking back he was a pretty good foreign policy president and he didn't get as ideological as his predecessor. Plus his party split. Clinton in this instance would be our Ike with the good economy and peace. Then bush 43 would be a bizarro combination of theirJFK and LBJ. He was nearly the opposite of JFK in terms of articulation. JFK was trying to keep the US out of wars and bush got us into 2. He's like LBJ in that both were from TX and liked to spend money but at least LBJ had something other than war to show for his spending in the forms of social programs. And I think both LBJ and bush 43 hurt their parties in terms of long term political consequences for their actions. LBJ lost the south because of civil rights and bush ruined the economy and pissed away the republicans' lock on national security. That brings us to Obama who is either our Nixon i.e. a person with the opposite moderate ideology who comes along at a weak moment in the end of the dominant coaltion. Nixon was a moderate conservative who had to placete democratic liberals and Obama is a moderate liberal who has tried to placate conservative republicans. Or Obama could be our Reagan and the beginning of a new political regime. It's hard to tell at this point.
