Cool, more faces to names.

Well, Republicans don't believe in evolution (I keed, I keed  ). They do need to change. Embracing actual conservatism is the change they need.



No. If the Republican party doesn't change their policies of the past eight years, they will no longer be a major party. The Independents would probably replace them. Think about it: Americans would rather have a black guy with the middle name Hussein than a war hero simply because he was a Republican. (And don't give me any of that, 'no, the people voted on the policies' bullshit. I ain't having it.)


Yes, yes and no. The whole 'family values' campaign that worked for Bush won't work anymore. That's due to a large part because of younger generations becoming older. My generation doesn't give a shit about family values, mostly because we grew up when divorce starting becoming the norm. Republican beliefs (or more accurately, conservative beliefs) will never become outdated. The problem is that the main pull of Republicans (being conservative) has been non existant for a while. Without that, they stand for nothing.


Unless they come in with some fresh, conservative blood, I can see the Republican party dying in the next few election cycles. The Hannitys and Coulters of the world speak to a very small base, and they piss off more people than they convert. Unfortunately, they are big faces (and mouths) that are attached to Republicans, and unless they completely reinvent their image, they're doomed.

Of course, it is the image, not the policies, that need change. I couldn't even imagine a true conservative party right now. It would be nice, though.

Gunshots in Chicago, California and New York?

No way....

I had no idea you were being dorced. What a shame.

Exactly. This is the guy I wanted to vote for, but once he started his campaign, McCain turned into a completely different person. I wonder if this will bring an end to the hate campaigns, as this one turned a hand-across-the-aisle war hero into a dividing, petty old man running a hate mahcine.

I'm not arguing whether you're right or wrong, all I'm saying is that nobody cares. So you called it, good for you. But it wasn't good enough for you. Everybody had to know how right you were and how we all owe you an apology.

I'm not sure what you were looking for when you created this thread.

This thread is indicative of your general attitude. I get the same feeling here as I do with most of your posts.

But keep thinking that you're right and everybody else is wrong and nobody is listening to your all-wise prophecies. Oh, how hard it must be on you. On second thoughts, go ahead and pat yourself on the back, because nobody else is going to.

I don't think we should give Obama less of a chance because Bush got railed. Two wrongs don't make a right. I, for one, am cleaning the slate.

Probably the reason nobody listened to you is because, like me, they don't pay much attention to the type of person who starts a 'I told you so!' thread.

Now that you mentioned it, here's a way for you to look cool, or at the very least, not a douchebag:

Be happy that your guy won, and have satisfaction in the fact that you knew it months ago. And spend less time trying to tell people how awesome you are for getting it right. Nobody cares.

I'm glad you're there for yourself to pat yourself on the back.

I'm curious to know what you believe those to be.
