And what is the other side offering? Vague accusations, budget deficits like never before, ideological nonsense and oh yeah 4-5 million green jobs.

Good luck. My guesstimate is every incumbent in the upcoming election no matter what party will be facing some nasty repercussions.

Americans don't blame Obama for this. I've posted poll numbers to back it up.

Only WATB right wingers are trying to play this up....Nobody but a small minority of bitter losers is going to blame Obama for the economy.

You can ratchet up the venom levels on Dems and Obama even more!

Nobody cares! Unless you start doing constructive things you're doomed to be the loser radical minority party that you are.

Part of the reason conservatism is dying can be seen in this post. Jon uses the theme of "reward and punishment."

Reward and punishment, good and evil, black and white worldviews are becoming things of the past. People are more tolerant and educated. The world is more diverse and complex, and strict conservatism does not reflect this.

The polls you take from your home phone do not count.

I'm sure it'll be gone. Why would the populace have self preservation when class envy is being used to win votes. There is no logic to it, just pure idiotic ideological nonsense. California is your poster boy and Barney Frank is the legal guardian.

I have a problem with Democrats because of the out of control spending and their idea that government should be bigger but when I think about what George Bush did during his 8 years, he spent just as much, got us into a war and made us almost into a police state with this Department of Homeland Security and other types of BS. Yet, I hear these talk show idiots standing up for Bush. Bush did more harm to the Conservative/Republican party's reputation than anybody else.
