The video of Rush's rant is at the link.
I tried to embed it directly here, but I can't seem to:

All in all, this is shaping up as a pretty decent election.
Man, this may be the best apocalypse ever!

(10,893 posts)considering the demographic shifts, but the GOP can still continue to obstruct if they have control of at least one house of Congress.

PLEASE make it true!!!
I have been feeling this myself for quite awhile now.
KILL that ignorant Conservative philosophy!!!
KILL IT DEAD!!!!
The Republican Party sealed its fate by taking in all the racists after 1964.
They COULD have returned to the moral edge they had when they were the Party of Lincoln before 1877.
But no they harbored an element of society that should have expunged from the national conscience ages ago.
An element that keeps this country from going Forward.
Now they will reap what they sowed.
The Southern Strategy to rollback the New Deal is finally failing.
HELL YES!!!

(20,577 posts)are getting pretty ridiculous. No one is talking about why their candidate is better - it is just any crazy result if he does not win. Now we have the end of the party. Can't wait to see what they come up with next.

(16,984 posts)I think it's going to be harder than that (Remember the entrenched corporate power in media and in political advertising and more), but the demographics are not on the GOP's side.
Besides, maybe someone will finally notice that whatever the Republicans touch turns to crap. I can't believe the media still acts as though the GOP has anything resembling competence.

These talking heads need to calm down. Losing this election will not be the end of the GOP.

(54,378 posts)Don't we wish. But the Kochs and Adelson have enough money to keep the nut cases out in force for decades to come. Obama's re-election will only harden their already hard core. They won't go away. Like a cancer, they may get operated on and the most visible tumors removed, but the malignancy will not disappear, and like after the 2008 election, be back in deadly form.

(8,636 posts)The sad fact is, as other people have commented, there is still plenty of racism and hatred in this country.
The real issue is the Koch Brothers and their fellow plutocrats. They have plenty of money to spend, and they're playing a long game! They're investing big in think tanks like Americans for Prosperity and the Cato Foundation, which promote a neoconservative, plutocratic agenda.
They're also spending to influence the higher education of young Americans for generations; their endowments to universities come with the quid pro quo that said universities have to hire conservative professors.
Bill Moyers was right: This is the Fight of Our Lives.
