"The GOP is dead!" - say what????

[Prison Bitch]

I'm curious to know why this keeps getting thrown out there. Obviously, the leftwing media is pushing the meme as hard as they can. That's the main culprit. But I'm wondering why all these GOP folks are bashing the party (Christie, Jindal, Powell, etc) and saying it "has to change".


Fact: the Presidential election was won by the incumbent. Like it nearly always is. Like nearly all elections are and have been. But many people seem shocked by it. If we look at the Conressional elections for the House, the vote was essentially even at 53 million per Party. How is that a landslide in terms of voter preference?

Fact: In 2014, Democrats hold 9 of the top 10 Senate seats projected to have the highest likelihood of switching. You can probably add Iowa to that list now with Harkin leaving:

Here's the current tally of US Leadership:

1) The GOP has a 230-200 lead in the House with a 54-46% lead in reps:

2) The GOP has 30 Governorships now, their highest total since 34 during the 1920s:

3) The GOP has a 31-17 advantage in State Houses, with a 55-44% lead in State Reps:

4) The GOP has a 28-19 advantage in State Senates, with 52-44% lead in total Senators:

Net: If you want to talk about a bad time for the GOP, the 1930s and the 1960s (look at the carnage here after the 1964 elections: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/89th_Un...tates_Congress). Those were terrible times. Totally shut out of power at every level of Federal & State government. But that is hardly the case today. The gnashing of teeth may stop at any moment.

Half or so of abortions are black babies but I wonder how many Dems know that?

I don't believe any facts that aren't preceded with "FACT: ...".

If it's abortion that's sticking in your craw, how about incentivized sterilization? Say 500 for a vasectomy, 1000 for a tubal, 1500 for a hysto. If you work for a living, you're going to come out money ahead. Way ahead.
