Title: Why we may not want a Romney Win
Post by: Weisshaupt on May 15, 2012, 09:17:37 PM

 If we win, then the GOP will take the blame. Either for Cutting entitlements, or NOT cutting entitlements... (http://hotair.com/archives/2012/05/15/tom-coburn-obama-told-me-hes-willing-to-go-a-long-way-to-reform-entitlements-in-his-second-term/)

Yeah, this is a toughie, eh?

But given the mood of the country right now and the sh*tty economy...there is no way the GOP will be completely out of power...so it should be more aptly described as a question of "shared blame"...but regardless, we know which way the Democrat-Media Complex will spin any failure...so...

In my mind the GOP really only has one option, since they'll take the hit no matter what, they have to capture the WH, Senate & retain the House or they and the nation are most definitely completely roayally screwed.

Will that happen?  I dunno, that Senate piece of the equation has been a pesky one to deal with...if not for Ruling Class backstabbing last go-around perhaps they'd be in better position to capture it this year...

This is something I've wrestled with myself. Sometimes I think it would be better if Obumbles wins so that he can finish destroying the country. Maybe then we can rebuild it properly after the resulting civil war...

But then I wake up and realize how utterly bad that would be!

If the voters can not see the devastation that he and his party have caused in the last four years (not to mention the decades that proceeded this last fours years!), then they'll vote for destruction next time 'round. I'd rather go out fighting now than roll over and surrender.

The big problem I see with civil war is, what is to keep the ChiComs, UN or some other power to step in and take over on a "Humanitarian Basis"?  At that point we would lose all ability to "Rebuild" and would be subject to our new rulers.

Isn't failure as a goal immoral?
