[QUOTE="JimJimmyJames, post: 468654, member: 11425"] Ah, the "stab in the back" theory. That classic post WWI German dodge of responsibility resurfaces again! The Republican failure at the polls could not possibly be the responsibilty of the leaders of the party that has strayed from it's conservative roots. Open borders, increased beauracracy, more social programs, huge budget deficits, and making "the world safe for democracy". Add a trashed economy and I guess we have the marks of [I]compassionate conservatism [/I]. We can also call this [I]neo-conservatism[/I]. I'll go one further and just call it plain ol' [I]liberalism [/I]dressed up in anti-abortion, pro second amendment duds. Maybe Americans just feel that having genuine liberals in power might be better than having people who pretend their not. You have to give the Democrats credit, at least they are not liars (well, maybe with the exception in regards to their sexual escapades :wink2:). In any case, the American people abandoned the Republican party because of Bush, not because of Ron Paul. [/QUOTE]
