Now the Donks have taken control of the Senate with Jim Webb’s victory over George Allen in Virginia. It’s also cost Rummy his job, as he steps down to avoid a constant interrogation by Congress. And there was much rejoicing in Gaza, Teheran, Pyongyang, and the hills of Afghanistan.
So why did the GOP lose? I’d say it was because first, they did not govern as they should; they attempted to reach out to the Democrats, who bit the Republicans’ hands in sheer hatred and anger over the 2000 election. Second, Congress spent Taxpayer Dollars like a drunken Sailor, and that is an insult to Sailors (remember, I was one too). Of course, the MSM had a role in highlighting the peccadilloes of certain Republican members of Congress and blithely ignoring those of the Democrats...and it paid off.
Now, the American People have spoken. The GOP must become the party of Ronald Reagan again in this short period in the wilderness, so we can get through this the same way we got through four years of Jimmy Carter.
