The GOP Should Learn From Tory Mistakes

The glaring flaw in Andrew’s column is: this is not England. Although we are allies, and our cultures are often compared, we are a very different political system.

We will continue to have a Republican party whether or not a Republican is in office next year or not. Our dilemma is that we continue to be force-fed an incorrect belief that the party must “move to the center” (meaning turn more liberal) in order to win elections. And, a win for McCain will be incorrectly touted as proof that they were right, which will of course result in the party shifting even more to the left (if that’s now possible). And, at that point what’s the sense of having a Republican party if it’s indestinguishable from the socialist democrats.

While I’d rather have a democrat in office taking credit for screwing up our country than a RINO Republican (since they all want to dissolve our borders, pass massive social programs, force feed us phony “global warming” nonsense anyway), the only pressing consideration in your decision making process should be Supreme Court nominees that will arise during the next 4-8 years, and who would better fill them…not anything that happened in England.
