Who Hijacked the Primaries?
Posted: 01/31/2008
With John McCain’s all-too-easy road to the nomination paved through Florida and now nearly complete one thing is clear: The Republican Party has been hijacked. Over the past month a new Axis of Evil has emerged — not one based in Damascus, Tehran or Pyongyang — but instead in Cedar Rapids, Charleston, South Carolina, Derry, New Hampshire and Boca Raton, Florida. It is the liberal and “independent” voters in these 4 states that have nearly completed a deed that makes Kim Jong Il envious — the near crippling of the American Electoral System. These four states have combined their native liberal populism with an imported liberal electorate and have forced the GOP to accept a nominee so distasteful that in more than one poll — the numbers of voters choosing not to vote and those choosing to vote third party actually exceed those who will hold their nose and vote for Maverick, War Hero, Amnesty Supporter, John McCain.
And WHO is to blame??? WE are – WE the voters – WE the supporters. WE the people who did NOT vote (I didn’t vote in the primary because I was terribly sick – there oughta be a way to deal with that circumstance). WE have let OURSELVES down.
Don’t blame McCain / Romney / Thompson / Huckabee / Hunter / Paul. Look inside ourselves.
Now we need to decide what WE need to do to change things: first the Congress, then the Senate, then the Presidency, then the Judiciary.
Add the educational system in there, and the media. How about teaching people to tell the unedited truth in articles and give opinions in op-ed pieces?
Only when WE the PEOPLE take the responsibility for taking our country back will there be any change.
Don’t weep. ACT.
