Looking At Good News For The GOP
Topics: Political News and commentariesWhat good news you say? On the other hand, what loss?
Egyptian Sandmonkey offers up a general perspective on the elections:
... On the long run, this is good for republicans, because it paves the way for a republican president in 08. It gives the democrats 2 years to prove themselves, in which they won't, and the republicans 2 years to get their act together, in which they will. The majorly conservative American public will be happy and satisfied that their party atoned for its naughty behavior, and will reward it with the Presidency again in 08. Sure, this will mean that Bush will have a shitty last 2 years in office, but he is a lame duck president anyway at this point. The man deliverd 3 consecutive winning elections, which is more than anyone on the right could've asked from him.He goes on to remind us that the country is not veering to the left, the candidates who won aren't that different at all from their republican counterparts, and the country is still solidly republican as far as he can tell.

Hell, the only reason the democrats won was because the republicans voted for their candidates, and they did that for 2 reasons.
Personally, other than the fact that I hate thinking that the country is so naive as to believe that the Democrats have anything useful to say about the war that the Islamofascists are waging against us, and that Americans have chosen to endorse a far-left agenda that is dead against everything having to do with faith and conservative values (family to Democrats is Bob and Ted with 2 kids, and nothing else), or keeping the terrorists and illegal Mexicans out of the country, I think that the poor GOP showing is a sobering moment for a party that ignored its base and what it stood for. The bums deserved to be thrown out. As for Iraq, check out Sandmonkey's analysis, it makes sense.
