		<description><![CDATA[&lt;blockquote&gt;You really didn’t have to pander to the middle class. You could have simply worked to protect their standard of living, instead of being the party that gleefully sacrificed them on the alter of international free trade, and Republicans like Bush supported importing illegal aliens to compete for the jobs that couldn’t be outsourced. Did you think they wouldn’t notice that?

DFCtomm &lt;/blockquote&gt;

Have you been paying attention since Wednesday morning, lol? Do you know what everyone and his mother is calling for now, on both sides? Comprehensive immigration reform...aka AMNESTY. And they&#039;re going to get it, and more. Boehner can&#039;t sell out fast enough. I don&#039;t recall Romney calling for that. In fact, he was opposed to it, at least publicly. Sure, it could have been a lie, but it may not have been. Doesn&#039;t matter now though.

Over the next 4 years, we&#039;re going to get as close to an open borders society as possibly without going completely full blown open borders. We&#039;re going to give citizenship to millions of illegals who currently aren&#039;t allowed to vote, but will be able to after. And you know what that means? Republicans, conservatives included, will never win another election of any significance again. You and every other republican who sat home this year screwed yourselves, genius. 

The idiot vote is now in the majority in this country, and it isn&#039;t limited to one side.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#039;s not a &quot;GOP middle-class problem&quot; when the American &quot;middle-class&quot; reelects a pinko community organizer who presided over trillion plus dollar deficits for four years and plans four more years of the samem while telling the nation that if only the &quot;rich pay a little more&quot; all will be well. 

It&#039;s not a &quot;GOP middle-class problem&quot; when the American &quot;middle-class&quot; reelects a pinko community organizer who raids Medicare of $500 billion to fund socialized health care for others, denies it, and is believed.

The nation has a &quot;middle-class&quot; stupidity problem aided and abetted by the government run education system, the media, and pop-culture. The &quot;middle-class&quot; does not understand basic arithmetic and math, and neither do most left-wing journalism school graduates.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[More than anything else, the GOP has an image problem and always will until our candidates smarten up and fight back. They are constantly vilified without consequence. As much as I don&#039;t care for Trump, and as much as Christie has disappointed me lately, neither man would be accused of being a pushover, and that is part of their success.   We could use candidates with a bit more fire in them like those two (but less embarrassing than them).]]></description>

I called how I saw it.  Didn&#039;t appreciate the non-voter vote.
Oh, and I basically sat out the primary, so calling me a &quot;bot&quot; is pretty over the top.]]></description>
