Democrat Governor in Hawaii loses primary election
« on: August 10, 2014, 08:32:51 PM »
Its not just Eric Cantor that loses his seat in his own primary race this election cycle.   Now Hawaii Governor Abercrombie,  a Democrat, loses his primary race.

I hope it turns into a trend.   Its best for your own party to clean out the garbage.   You shouldn't have to make it the other parties problem.    Plus it helps get rid of long time people which has become a crisis IMHO.

The problem is...replace a sitting DemonRat with a new DemonRat...you still have a DemonRat...   ::facepalm::

They've been known to replace a Demorat with a RINO. That always works out well.

Well,  this is the d-bag that helped hide Barry's past so it couldn't happen to a better guy.   

I think changing the politicians (even crummy ones) at times is still better then one long time politician.  I mean this is the state that kept Daniel Inouye in office about the whole time Hawaii has been a state (1963-2012).    The longer one sits the more corrupt one gets,  plus they become nearly impossible to boot.

Like I said, people cannot make the necessary steps...sacking a POS is one step, replacing it with another negates that, replacing them with something less offensive, RINO, whatever...is like a half-step back...

The is no movement forward, not enough to matter anyway...

People just lack the capacity to think long term...many cannot think short term...or at all...
