Is the Republican party turning into a joke/rapidly losing popularity? * 1
    #19191576 - 11/26/13 11:42 AM (10 years, 2 months ago)

It seems to me that nobody takes the Republicans seriously anymore. They seem to be a problem in general and a magnet for idiots.

Is it just me or is the Republican party considered to be the #1 problem in America?
Do you support the Republican party?
You may choose only one

No one takes our politicians seriously, period. Republican or Democrat. Pretty sure both parties have had majorities over the last 30 years and here we are.

Your opinion of the politics here is laughable.

The tide shifts left. The tide shifts right. The tide returns towards the middle.

You were doing good lately. Until this dumb post.

If no-one took them seriously they wouldn't control the House and the majority of state governments.

Quote:

As the graphic shows, 30 states have Republican governors, and in all but five of those (Iowa, Maine, New Jersey, New Mexico and Nevada) with the GOP also controls the state legislature. (Nebraska has a unicameral, non-partisan legislature.)

What's more, Republican state legislative majorities in 14 states (including two with Democratic governors, Arkansas and Missouri) are strong enough to override gubernatorial vetoes.




http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-fix/wp/2013/02/04/the-republican-partys-big-state-level-advantage-in-one-chart/

Republicans want to mind my business. Democrats want to empty my wallet. Both suck.

It's just you.

Because it is an insult when discussing politics. The US was built on personal responsibility. That's what the overriding concern should be... that it remain so.

Personal responsibility is what is killing America. Everybody is out for themselves and don't care about their neighbors as long as they are fine.

Republicans will be lucky to win the white house once more in my lifetime.

The demographics of the party are terrible. They do poorly among young people, women, and minorities. Their only reliable demographic voting block is older white men. They may win the legislature back in the short term, but their policies turn off the majority of the nation. And the Rand Pauls and Mitch McConnelsl of the world will be ridiculed into insignificance.

They are certainly going through and identity crisis.  The aging christian scumbags are their old base, the younger secular libertarians are their future.  Making that transition is not easy and they are going to be weak as a result.

I really don't care what is going on in politics... It's all a bunch of nonsense...

Logically, anarchism is the future. What is going on right now is hilarious.

There is no libertarian future to the party. They are a fringe group and if they ever gained prominence the conservative coalition would fall apart. Without social issues half the republican voters don't show up on election day.

Social conservative issues are the only reason the republicans have managed to claw themselves out of the legislative death spiral they had been in for decades.

Lack of personal responsibility is what's killing America. The whiners who think they are entitled to the fruits of anothers labor are.

Americans give more to charity than the 150ish out of 160ish countries. Fun fact: Americans give the same percentage to charities as... wait for it... wait for it... Canada.

Oh, and no man left behind is a US Marine corp saying.

I heartily accept the motto,—“That government is best which governs least;” and I should like to see it acted up to more rapidly and systematically. Carried out, it finally amounts to this, which I also believe,—“That government is best which governs not at all;” and when men are prepared for it, that will be the kind of government which they will have.

I do. When nothing more than the absolute necessary is done for the collective, it creates a competitive, greedy and selfish environment. It encourages an "every man for himself" mentality instead of creating a "were all in this together" mentality. It multiplies the problems in America IMO. Rich people become outraged when asked to help the poor, healthy people get outraged to pay for sick people, add the 2nd amendment in there and you have people shooting each other. It creates a toxic environment.

When you take away the team mentality, people become selfish and stop caring about their fellow man.

I dunno, that's what I think

Every 4-8 years (sometimes even 12+ years, depending on if we have a president that the majority liked) the majority of people swing from republican to democrat or vice versa.



So if obama does some sketchy things before he leaves office, like bush did, the majority of people will go back to thinking that republicans are awesome and democrats are stupid. You gotta understand that the majority of people in the US (the whole world to be honest) is mass of people that do not like to do their own thinking and LOVE to sit on the fence so they can join the popular side.

So obviously, because bush was a blabbering idiot, republicans are unfavored. The tides will turn, no doubt about that. I think it's gonna take longer for people to hate democrats this time around. My guess is that people will rationalize with the actions obama has made MUCH MORE than they did with G.Bush. If that is the case, we will probably have another democrat as president, but my guess is that the sides will change after that president has served his/her turn.
