Electing Democrats will get you killed!!!!

Now that we have moved into the political season only 6 months out from mid-terms it is a good time to review the issues at stake in this upcoming election: War, immigration, judiciary, low taxes, economy. Every one favors the GOP. In estimating the favorable election environment for the GOP you cannot get sidetracked with the “buzz” or distortion created by MSM. In my experience people only really start looking seriously at voting 3 months out of a general and you must be branded by then. The MSM is once again peddling a tired old story of how Bush’s polls are in the tank, and how the generic vote favors Democrats over the GOP. Yet, none of this amounts to one vote.

Now after the primaries the GOP looks very strong in the head to head match-ups. The bell weather Santorum v. Casey now looks like a toss up, with Santorum having all the momentum. As the match ups have now crystallized the major variable is the issues and how they will play to the advantage of either party. In this most crucial respect, the GOP wins hands down. How the GOP is positioned regarding the issues is handled well by Hugh Hewitt http://www.hughhewitt.com/ .

In fact, anticipating the Democrats’ position on most of the foregoing issues is fool-hardy. On those issues where it can be nailed down, their position is a loser. Immigration for instance: the D’s position is something akin to a dreamy open boarders position. This is the natural corollary to a position where the America's right to sovereignty is openly questioned! Witness the immigration marches and how their underlying theme was to take back the southwest by illegal invasion!!! In this parallel universe, Americans do not deserve to exercise sovereignty because we are bad people…or something like this. In fact the collection of Democrat talking points on any given issue is but a mere corollary of an amorphous left wing inclination against reason manifest in politics itself. This is viewed when any serious issue for policy is discussed, where a decision must be made to effect a practical purpose….like win a war. When serious people discuss alternatives, there you’ll find the not so serious moral exhibitionalists countering with missives akin to “why is the sky blue”…in this mid-term election dreamy child like questions, in the absence of real policy alternatives, will not sell to a hard-nosed, though sympathetic, American electorate. Because, you see ,Electing Democrats will get you killed!!!!
