Hondo- the party dominance comes and goes, in the early 980’s it was Rugs for 12 hardcore years, Clinton changed that, the Bush changed it back, mark my words, it will change again……………..I personally think both the parties are special interest whores and have been Independent for 15
years……

I give full credit to the democrats. They are far better at politics than the Republicans are.
They are masters of the low information voters.

Government is obviously not perfect (nor is “business”), but I feel sorry for you. Maybe you’re in the wrong business.

Like the buisness of public unions-scamming and stealing.

” Government is coercion. It’s putting a gun to the heads of taxpayers, taking their money, and spending it on special interests.”

Well this explains why in every election in CA……..no one knows who the republican candidate is!

You also cant tell the gimme gimme crowd……that things are going to be ran like a good tight business…….because they KNOW, their free stuff would come to an end.

We are doomed.

There was a prominent rancher in the Mid-West who was widely known for the quality livestock that his ranch produced. One year he found himself in a cash flow squeeze so he invited his banker out to the ranch for lunch, specifically to admire his prized bull. This bull had sired many grand prize winning cattle through out the area. As they were sitting on his patio, they watched the bull in an adjacent pasture. The bull put on a magnificent show, stomping, pawing the ground, snorting, bucking, and charging the fence of the pasture next to his pen. The cause of the exhibition was a young heifer that was coming into heat. All of a sudden the bull charged the fence and made a graceful leap. At that moment they heard a terrible scream, a loud thud, and a strange thp,thp,thp coming from the barbed wire fence. They abandoned their lunch and ran over to the bull who was in terrible agony. The Vet was called and the bull (now a steer) was sedated and patched up. The banker turned to the rancher and said that his services were no longer needed, the rancher replied “But he would make one helluva consultant”.

Political consultants are human like the rest of us; they want to be rich, and if some rich executive with limited political experience wants to take an ego trip and pursue government statesmanship, the consultants are happy to oblige at a rate that the client is willing to accept.

A rich newbie candidate is a sitting duck!

We’ll see a few rich ones running for governor in 2014, with the same result.

If you remember Al Checchi, you know that Democrats can fall into this trap too.
