Bush, easy. He shocked me as to what he did. Obama, if nothing else, is exactly what I thought he was. I'd rather face my opponent than get it in the back from someone on my side.

I hope that is not the case. However, I agree that it is a real possibility. Regardless of how bad he is, 95% of the black vote will be his. With hispanics steadily becoming a group of whiners that think their relatives are getting treated unfairly because they have to follow the U.S. laws, he will probably get the vast majority of the hispanic vote too. Gays and lesbians will likely vote for him because they seem to fear Republicans. All we can do is hope that there are enough sensible white people to offset the brainwashing and stupidity to vote him out of office.

And there it is, the road to failure for the America right; blame someone else.

For starters, whites dominate this nation. Period. Of course, you object that whites aren't all of the same political mind sent and Hispanics and blacks largely are and you are, of course, correct. However, why is that?

Because they are whiners?

If we'd just left 8 years of tax cutting, reduction in the size of government, taking care of our own business more and meddling with others less, policies that increased personal responsibility and decreased government dependency and blacks and Hispanics were still leaning left that would be one thing.

However, that is simply not the case. If Hispanics and blacks see the GOP pissing away money and lives on nation building, serving rich white guys on Wall Street, limiting individual rights, growing government, all around acting like Democrats AND at the same time blaming gays, blacks and illegal immigrants for all the woes of the world, at what point do they get the message?

Blacks and Hispanics, on the family level, are as conservative or even more so than whites, as a whole and yet, what has happened?

The GOP has made it a class project to lose Mexican Americans who support illegal immigration no more than anyone on the right. Yet, what did the GOP do? Why would blacks support the GOP?

Hell, what is the Tea Party, right wing people, but people rejecting the GOP and it's left wing policies and right wing lip service? We already know, never mind the media, that Tea Party people could care less about your skin color or sexual orientation. How do you feel about the constitution? The rule of law? That's what matters.

Once again, you have made some very good points, and I thank you.

I'm telling you, people are out there to be won over, of all backgrounds and races. It just ain't gonna happen if we're selling sweeter sugar.

And how did I know that would be your answer.
