A crushing defeat for GOP should be welcomed by Libertarians

[Liberty Star]

Granted Dems win is not part of solution and Obama could become a puppet in the hand of anti American foreign lobbying groups like aipac, concept of accountability demands that GOP should be held accountable by voters for disastrous policies of last 8 years and dealt with a defeat at the polls. This would be an opening for Libertarians and RP movement to continue education process.
Any disagreement?

 

[New York For Paul]

You are right.

 

[ChaosControl]

I just hope it is followed by a crushing defeat for the dems.

 

[Matt Collins]

Yeah. Hopefully the socialist Dems won't screw the country up much worse in 2 years before midterms and we can get some serious liberty candidates into office.

 

[Oyate]

Any disagreement?

Well put and no disagreement from me buddy. Dismay that "we might be handing Obama the election" is the same tired argument that we, by word and deed, have utterly rejected.

The only thing more desirable is if democrats had seriously supported Kucinich/Gravel. If they had pulled as hard from the left as we pull from the right, we'd already have the wheels off this rotten apple cart.

AS SUCH, NOBODY IS SORRY FOR DOING THE JOB GOOD ENOUGH. ANY DOUBT AT THIS POINT SUGGESTS THAT WE DID OUR JOB TOO WELL.

And there's way too much left to be done to accept the latter.

LET THEM HAVE THEIR McOBAMA. WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?

Maybe Obama is the better president because the dems can now be disillusioned with their great savior.

I agree.

 

[ProBlue33]

YES YES & YES

But some people on the forum just don't get this.

It was after all it was the GOP that crushed Ron Paul every step of the way, not the democrats.

Now they MUST pay for their crimes against Liberty and Ron Paul and his supporters.

A landslide loss is payback.

 

[ItsTime]

Agreed. We need to be acting to get liberty candidates ready for 2010

 

[TastyWheat]

Without a change of voting system about the only scenario in which the Libertarians could gain any kind of power is if the GOP has almost none.

 

[BeFranklin]

YES YES & YES

It was completely foolish in any case. The major issue of this election WAS the economic issue and they suppressed it with Ron Paul.

 

[linux]

Agreed

My only concern (albeit a big one) is Obama's supreme court appointments. McCain's picks would be much better, no doubt.

[Printo]

Though it will suck having the Dems win, it is a necessary burden we must carry in order for us to further our movement. Bush killed conservatism & destroyed the Republican party. Republicans need to find themselves again & re-establish some principles. Hopefully we are the ones that are found in the GOP soul-searching process.

 

[fj45lvr]

yes.

What about the Libertarian party's treatment of Ron? Remember Barr's blog? What about the Libertarian REASON magazine and their treatment of Ron?

Since we're apparently wanting to slam groups, what do you think should happen to these groups?

It's an opportunity to take over the GOP, yes, and return it to its roots. Is that what you're talking about?

You don't have to BE a libertarian to call yourself such. Hell, Bill Maher calls himself libertarian. People tend to throw the L word around and redefine it for their convenience.

You go ahead, keep giving CPR to a corpse. I'm done with the GOP 4ever.

Well, goodie for you. You realize however, that Ron Paul suggested that we take back the Republican Party, right?

 

[HOLLYWOOD]

The the Democrats driving the country into the ground while Americans look the other way for $600 checks and extended Unemployment benefits... this should open the Incredibly shut door to 3rd party candidates.

the 3rd parties should be uniting over the next 18 months to capitalize and exploit the destruction by the 2 party dictatorship of COKE & PEPSI the past 25 years.

You'll never take back the Republican party quickly and especially with MSM dictators like FOX NEWS, CNBC, Bloomberg and the rest of the NEOCON Klan
