2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumI hear the sound of knives being sharpened
by repuks getting ready to stab each other for the loss they are about to experience. The 2010 elections just put off the civil war with in their party, there will be a blood bath of blame. After Obama Care goes into full effect in 2014 and the changing demographics Repuks will be out in the cold for many years to come.

(20,998 posts)Christie is a pragmatist. He's not ready to be roasted. And quite frankly, at this time the rethuglican power brokers aren't up to the task. They'll be far too busy trying to protect their own asses.
Jeff In Milwaukee
(13,992 posts)and he might even be President.
But if the Teabaggers continue to control the agenda, he's the next election cycle's version of Charlie Crist.

(15,238 posts)Mr. Severely Conservative had swim up stream to keep from drowning and will probably drown soon. At least Christie knew he was already drowning and needed lifesaving.

(20,998 posts)...not the expensive ones, because I don't care to send my very best. The cheap ones will do. Cheap knives for the rethuglican bloodbath. Cheap knives in honor of cheap, low-rent ideals, and even worse candidates.
This should be better than any slasher flick.

(102 posts)I think the civil war will be on hold for 4 more years. Remember you tend to unite against an enemy even if you're divided. Most likely they will blame Romney for not being a "real" conservative and also blame Sandy a little bit.

(8,064 posts)and the more states that are called for Obama, the more angry the right will be at Romney
and the republican establishment for forcing him down their throats like they forced mccain
down their throats.
The base wants to go further to the right and to do so, they will have to create their own
party. (and they will LOSE horribly) And the beauty of it is, the republican party will not
ever be able to win without their rabid, racist, homophobic base. So, they are trapped.
I love it!

(45,319 posts)electronic voting machines, not one in my entire State. I've never used one in my life. Well, once at a test session with the CA elections people, not in an actual election. I would not cast a vote on such a device.
