Obama Gets Boost as Palin Departure Deepens Republican Disarray - Bloomberg.com

Republican strategist John Weaver said it could take a generation or two for the Republicans to recover.

They are so split that they may not be able to destroy Obama's health care reform plan in the way they did to Clinton's in 1994.

Two of their rising stars, Mark Sanford and John Ensign have been caught in extra-marital affairs, which goes down badly in a party famous for nauseatingly fake religiosity.

Only one in 3 Americans view the party favourably.

Finally, not only do the Reps not have the intellectual rigour to come up with their own ideas to oppose Obama but they have nobody to deliver the message.

Things are very bleak for the GOP.

Pauli, i assume this is her leaving political life. Would not make sense for her to launch a new presidential bid without a governorship.

If thats the case then its a good think for the Republicans to at least get her off the stage. otherwise she would have been a focus for the religious right to coalsce around.

Are they in a good position no but i think they would have been in a worse position if palin had muscled her way into a role as a leading republican

Conservatives have figured things out. Rush hannity and o reilly have pulled the wool over their eyes. The republicans sold out the country with the bailouts and now the spin effort is to portray them as an opposition when the democrats continue the bailouts.

Sen Connyn was booed at the tea party over the weekend in Texas. Many can see through the tweedle dum versus tweedle dee.


This is Barret getting booed a few months ago.




Classic,

The democrats are waking up as well

I was talking to an Alaskan on Friday and i went off about how Palin is a moron and he thought Palin was a very good Governor and she has done alot for the state, so i thought i would look it up and she actually has left Alaska in a very good fiscal position and is generally regarded by most people there as a good Governor.

Now on to the GOP, dont count them out in the early days of the Carter administration the GOP was in a shambles and then came along a move star turned Governor from California who thrashed Carter in 1980.

Palin might be making the calculation that Nixon made, Nixon was offered to fight Kennedy in 1964 and Nixon declined as he knew Kennedy would most likely win and Johnson romped home to Victory in 1964, so perhaps Palin thinks Obama isnt worth going up against in 2012, better wait to 2016 when the Dems will be on the opposite side of the Change argument by then.
