Republicans had better wake up! November 9, 2011 10:43 am Eri

Actually, I hope they DON’T wake up because that will mean more democrats will be elected. For some odd reason, Republicans thought they had a mandate to do anything they wanted after they were elected. I don’t understand why THEY don’t understand that this country is neither Conservative NOR Liberal but is dead center in between. You lean too far either way and the voters are going to yank you in by firing your asses. The sooner politicians “get it,” the sooner we’ll stabilize this country.

The problem is, I don’t think they ever WILL get it. These assholes are simply on power trips and will do anything to get it and anything to keep it other than what they SHOULD be doing which is serving their constituencies.
