Re: Close win for MaCauliff in Virginia
Listen.
In my first post that I mentioned Christie-Perry, I said that the combination wouldn't make sense.
Reagan would indeed be considered a Moderate today and it was Reagan that helped to grant amnesty to the illegals that were already here. The truth of the matter is that many in our GOP are pretty far to the right-- far enough to make the average American not able to identify with them.
Why isn't the GOP winning elections?
Just to establish it, America will have 8 more years of Democrat leadership in the White House. Why? Because the GOP will not put Christie forward and they'll put some other guy who is unable to identify with the Joe America and they will lose against Hillary Clinton-- a centrist, MODERATE Democrat.
Christie and Jindal are both common sense GOP'ers. Your T-girls ('cuz I've long since disowned any connection to them) are destroying the party's ability to relate and to win. Christie and Jindal are both very popular Republicans in their home states, but will not have the national support they need.
Christie doesn't loathe Libertarians. The gay marriage issue in NJ boiled down to libertarian ideas and has his support based on that school of thought. Rand Paul would also support gay marriage. It's a libertarian issue for the conservatives who decide it's ok for the government to sanction it.
A Christie-Rand Paul ticket will stop the GOP from becoming non-influential and could very well beat a Hillary-XXX ticket.
As for West, I have never heard West say the gene pool thing but there could be a strong argument for a small amount of censorship for government secrets that help protect the strength of our nation.
Still, West is not a crook and he doesn't have the FBI doing ethics investigations on him and his staff. As far as I know, he doesn't just say stupid stuff that he knows isn't true just to be in the news. Bachman and West are not a good comparison. Bachman is far more nuttier than West will ever be.
There are some things that I don't need to know.
There are other things that if I did need to know about them, I shouldn't be reading about it in the newspaper or online.
