Participant[quote=afx114]Just as the pendulum swung too far when the right overstepped their bounds, I’m sure that the left will eventually overstep theirs too, causing the pendulum to come swinging back the other way.
There is no such thing as a permanent majority.[/quote]
True.I heard an analysis piece on NPR the other day that was really interesting.
It basically said that as the DNC picks up more moderates, you will see it start to edge to the right.ParticipantCuz its nutritious.

Participant[quote=4plexowner]I envy him to some degree – I have had the goal of leaving this forum for several months now but keep coming back – it really is a waste of time – we all have our own opinions and get defensive when anybody suggests that our opinions are wrong or ill-founded$[/quote]

Participant[quote=partypup][quote=ocrenter]no, the demise of the GOP is definitely not a good thing.
moderates will continue their exit, leaving the party firmly and fully in the Christian Right. The Christian Right GOP will pick Palin for 2012, Obama wins 70% of the popular vote.
Two possibilities after the 2012 landslide:
#1. moderate Republicans regroup and form a new party of the center. GOP stays and linger on as a fringe party.
#2. moderate Republicans retake the party after the complete collapse, re-establishing the two party system. [/quote]
Possibility #3: The recession/depression doesn’t end in 2011 and instead deepens. Obama is credited for worsening a downturn that could have been “fixed” by the GOP. Fingers will point to profligate spending and a series of failed bailouts/stimulus packages that eventually lead to a massive devaluation of the dollar and runaway, Carter-style inflation.
The GOP easily takes back the White House in 2012, re-claiming OH, FL and MI, which have been royally hammered by the GM and Chrysler bankruptcies and the housing collapse. Unfortunately for the GOP, the crisis worsens, and it soon becomes clear to everyone that they are just as inept at solving the crisis as Obama was.
The Dems look poised to take back the White House in 2016 — until Americans finally wake the hell up and realize that they are in the middle of a second great depression caused by the incompetence and greed of both parties – who have played voters like suckers on this see saw for the better part of the past century.
Revolution to follow.
[/quote]Possibility #4:
The newly self-aware defense mainframe becomes paranoid when humans try to pull the plug.
It launches nukes that set off a chain reaction in other nuclear powers.
Out of the ruins rises a resistance leader and out of the machine oppressors rises a new generation of machine that uses living tissue and rubber over titanium and coltan endoskeletons to infiltrate the resistance.Also the machines use time travel.
A waitress with big hair is saved from our Governator (who is a cyborg) by a young actor named Michael Biehn shortly before he takes the role as corporal hicks with Sigourney Weaver.
Also, Ron Paul is a platoon leader, Ayn Rand is required reading and we all worship a giant unexploded nuclear warhead.
Just before the end, Charlton Heston shows up and accidentally detonates the nuke.
Later we are all ruled by machines and apes.
And all this because of Arlen Spector.
