US Presidential Election 2016: Sidney's Victory Lap

[Sidney]

Republicans continue to marginalize themselves with each passing day. The irony is that a huge number of the 47% that Romney referred to are poor white Americans mainly in the Midwest and South who traditionally vote Republican. Someday the penny may drop for them but I’m not so sure. The Republican party is now the party of stupid and has been since Bush 2 was elected. Whether they like it or not the country is moving to the center (it has always been right of center) and policies like tax breaks for the rich, a war on women’s rights, denying equal rights for gays, more military adventures, etc. are not going to get you elected in 2012.

White people tend to vote Republican because they favor the economic policies of Republicans, as any sensible middle class person would.

That’s quite a journey you’ve come on. From “the party of stupid” to “the party of sensible”.

Ridiculing tax breaks for the rich in 2012, eulogising them now.

One could say you’re confused if being charitable, or being more realistic, one could say you don’t know your arse from elbow when it comes to economics.
