All of this is vastly premature. To the ideologues, it is policy that matter. And right now we don’t know what Obama will do with his one party rule in the executive and both houses.
If he quickly advances ultra left wing abortion “rights” legislation, shuts down Guantanamo and brings the terrorist home for full protection, and in the first 90 days advances and signs off on the Shamnesty deal Harry Reid has tried to blast through the Senate without even discussion, then all of those who thought of Obama as a a pragmatic centrist looking for eight years will be eating egg.
Not sure which man will emerge but based on his vastly liberal voting record and defense of late term abortions, I don’t expect him to temper this early. In fact I would expect the complete opposite.
And if the Democrat dream of Shamnesty is realized, that means that 20 million or perhaps something closer to 30 million illegal aliens will change the political landscape forever. And of course their “family” will quickly escalate those figures to well over 60 million thus ensuring that America is headed to a full blown socialist state where “rights” mean housing, health care, schooling and Social Security benefits for grandma who has made her way up from Mexico City.
The Republic will be dead and the Democrat majority will remain in power for years to come arguing over who’s rights are next to approve.
Everyone then looking back on this premature chatter and mumbling centrist will look idiotic.
The Republic will be dead.
