Why Republicans Lost
By Richie
Republicans lost the house and may loose the Senate, at first I was upset but in my heart I think we should have lost.
The party has become some what arrogant, and out of touch with the base, we got slapped the fuck up. American's went to the polls and said shut the hell up and show us where our money is going! And the truth is many of those votes were Republicans.
I hope the leadership of the party learned its fucking lesson, you can not spend, spend with out consequences, nor can you just get by with whispering "lets stay the course". You can not force anti abortion laws on the courts at will, nor can you bring out the gay marriage ticket to scare folks. People's children are dying in Iraq by radical Islamist and they want to know what the hell is going on Mr. President.
To the BushBots who think all is well in Iraq you were proven wrong. I supported the war and I still do, but you do not go to war unless you are going to win, and win decisively.
Bush should have never sent Paul Bremmer to Iraq, the Neocon's and Iraqi dissident groups warned him, but he choose to instead listen to the idiots at the State department under Colin Powell, (yes Colin Powell is no angel), it was the state departments rhetoric that led to the troops staying a little longer which led to occupation, the necons were saying get Saddam out and get the fuck out of there!! As much as I dislike Democrat whining I hope they investigate every thing under the sun, and I hope that they not give one buck to the government unless we know what the hell we are purchasing.
Also to the Democrats while they won should not take this election as some thrill ride for socialist, Trotskyite polices, the American people have giving them an opportunity to show that they can moderate the arrogance of power.
Also the knives will be out for the social conservative Republicans for the loss of good moderate Republicans, in the party. In is amazing that good house seats like Sue Kelly in New York were lost because of one issue Iraq, this is shameful, and makes me sick.
Moderate Republicans who lost or who warned folks like Sean Hannity's should get a big apology. Also moderate Republicans need to fight back like never before, and stand up to those who claim to run the party.
The Republican's no know that they can not win with out the North East, and must become more moderate, to win back those seats.
The facts are as they stand Republican's got shit on this week and no spin can change that, congratulations Democrats, and well done in electing a women to be house speaker...you rock at least for now.

I agree. I was/still am upset,but at the same time,I tried to look for a positive to it,and it occured to me that this may be what we need to jolt us back into being REAL Conservatives. Now that Rumsfeld is leaving,it might open the door for someone who will actually finally get us the victory in Iraq that we(and the whole world) need.
I've thought for the longest that the problem with Iraq is that we've been too restrictive. We need to put aside the politically correct BS and let our soldiers whoop some ass.
I've always thought that the best way to have solved the gay marriage issue is to let each state decide(at which point they would vote it down),THEN put it in the Constitution.
Eh,I don't have a problem with them having gotten Sadaam out and stayed,because you HAD to put a government inplace to keep Saddam and his people from taking over again. I just think that they should've let the soldiers "take the gloves off" like Colonel David Hunt(and the troops) has repeatedly said.
The election wasn't lost on just Iraq. The Dems. would have us believe that,but it's not true. We didn't just lose because of Iraq,we lost because;
1.The Spending
2.The lack of will to do enough on the border
3.Not doing enough to better the economy even though the economic numbers were good.
4.We stayed on the defense WAY too much,instead of getting on offense.
I don't think being moderate would've helped keep the Northeast,because Lincoln Chaffee was an example of a Liberal-Republican yet even he couldn't keep his seat.
It's time to figure out what we did wrong,figure out how to change it,and go and take our power back in 2008 with the fire we had in 1994!
