ParticipantOh by the way humble pie here, I thought this thing would be tighter. Ohio, VA, and PA sealed the deal.

ParticipantWhy does everyone assume it’s the bible thumpers are what’s messed up with the GOP?
Is there zero consideration that many of us feel Bush is just another warmed over liberal who decided to fight some wars? The Neo-Con legacy seems to be one of cutting taxes and spending as if they were Tip O’Neill democrats.
Back when the GOP went on the warpath in 94, it was quite common to hear people like Newt Gingrich, Dick Armey, etc. articulate a vision that sold well. I know Newt turned out to be a slime, but he was very difficult for the 90’s style liberal to debate. The message was clear and able to be sold. Bush couldn’t articulate a good bowel movement. When the chips were down and they had both houses, they spent like drunken sailors. They went against their base on immigration. They went against the base on bailouts. The Dubai port issue….
This site is obsessed with the religious of the GOP ruining it, but I’d say it’s the utter inability to act like champions of small government.
I really think the crash of the markets and McCain’s inability to oppose the Bush Administration’s bailouts really hurt.

ParticipantPartypup I too am fascinated by the whole PUMA thing and little it’s been covered. One of the sites actually had people donating last minute funds to run anti-messiah ads in swing states.
Very good analysis here, and I think you are correct the tightening is occuring. Also you shed on a topic I hadn’t given much thought to, and that is the massive Hillary turnout when the race was considered all but over. Why would so many waste their time? I understand a few hardcore types doing it, but pulling upset wins?
I guarantee you if for some reason O loses, he is done with national politics. Weren’t there a couple of media types questioning at the time why Hillary won some of the last couple of primaries? They never really did go into it much or I should give us any depth on the topic. It’s been a big lovefest since the nomination but very little in the way of tough questions.
If I know the media like I think I do, they’ll start to grill him some from tomorrow until the inauguration. At some point he’ll have to take some stands that will either show him to the center-right like William Jefferson (Dick Morris years), or where I think he’ll govern from… the left. Remember he has to answer to the Howard Dean/Pelosi/Reid contingency who helped “steal this from Hillary” according to the PUMAs. He’ll have majorities in Congress, and the mandate will be said to govern from the left.
