The GOP’s “Rudy Problem”

The problem is not Rudy. The problem is the current incarnation of the Republican Party which although it has had some ‘temporary’ success is as doomed as the dodo if it continues to rely on its current base.

All that now preserves it is the asinine ‘progressive’ wing of the Democrat Party. It’s screaming yin to the Republican screeching yang so to speak. Thus far the screaming is more annoying than the screeching to the uninvolved. If or rather when the Democrats get their collection of maddened yahoos under control, and Hillary is just the type that can do it, the long slide to marginalization will start in earnest.

Rudy is not part of the problem ; he is part of the solution. But evidently like all those trapped in a self-delusional belief, the Republicans cannot see the forest for the trees.

All that needs to happen is for Ohio or Florida to switch sides on a more or less permanent basis. Then where would the Republican Party be ? And frankly that eventuality is not all that hard to envision. Much easier than envisioning that New York or California or even Pennsylvania will ever vote for the Republicans as they now exist.

Were it not for the War this electoral revision would already have happened. Once Hillary proves herself to be a fit commander-in-chief(and she will because she is clever and smart, and TOUGH), the Republicans are kaput.

Frankly as long as someone is properly attending to the jihadis, good riddance as far as I am concerned. I’m fed up to HERE with hearing about VALUE VOTERS. They don’t really reflect my values at all. And I hardly think that i am alone.
