Bingo!

The GOP political machine is a disaster. They did ok in 2004, but blew lots of opportunities.

Once elected, they didn't do squat in 2005-2006, except try to "position" themselves for 2006. At some point you have to do the work!

Then they were disasterous in 2006.

Apparently they are more concerned about polls and perception than getting things done.

This is what happens when you try to squelch the competition, instead of improve and outperform. The main parties have secured a duopoly, and they both suck.

The GOP hasn't had someone really great at running campaigns since Lee Atwater. And while Rove learned alot from Lee... Lee WAS the Master. Rove pales in compairson.

The truth is you don't care about the troops.

Couldn't be farther from the truth. Categorically false. Have former students and kid's that I have coached. Some of these kid's I love. I know all of us paint with a broad brush sometimes so I'l give you the benefit of the doubt. I'm just telling you I do care about the troops and when we lose one. All of us lose. Red and Blue.
