The changing face of the GOP versus the mired rule of the Old Types within the Democrat Party, insures future success of the GOP if the infighting can be kept under control.

<<<  Old people rule !!!!!  Ah,  we have the new Democrat talking point,  while the GOP is growing a much younger leadership pool.  

The Vice Chairman of the Democrat party is 62.  The party's Leader,  Steny Hoyer, and,  party  Whip,  James Clyburn are both over 70 years old.    Party Goddess,   Nancy Pelosi, is 74.  One of the great takeaways from the last several years and the implosion of the Democrat Socialist Party,  is the realization that,  in all likelihood,  she would be 78,  maybe 80 years old,  before she would be called "Speaker,"  once again.

She has been very successful in neutralizing the moderate and younger voices in her party,  and in that process,  has become one of the GOP’s better recruitment tools.  Outside of party leadership,  no one likes the woman.  While being hard core is a leadership requirement in political circles,  or so it seems,  Pelosi is more than “hard core.”  She is vindictive to a fault,  perfectly willing to push a populace legislative strategy that is actually based in complicated lies and plausible deniability. 

Fortunately,  she is in the House and has no ultimate power,  a victim of her own creation and unpopularity.  With 243 GOP Representatives,  the House has the potential to get things done.  The only thing standing in the way,  for the GOP,  is the divide between the Conservative Right,   and the Conservative Establishment. 

Compromise between the two factions must be the order of the day,  for the next two years.  If that does not happen,  those responsible should be marked and defeated in the next election cycle.  Understand that I am not talking about compromise with the Socialist Democrats.  But,  “standing on principle,”  which sounds good,  even “Christian,”  we are talking about politics.  The only issue that involves a clear cut sense of morality,  is abortion and the killing of the unborn and viable fetus. 

Constitutional issues,  such as free speech or gun ownership,  are not moral issues.  Of course,  that does not mean they are less important.  But,  as senseless as gun registration is,  compromise on that point need not be considered in the same breath as the killing of the viable unborn. 

I live in the very liberal “paradise” of California.  While gun laws abound,  here,  the fact of the matter is this:  I own a semi-automatic rifle,  two shotguns and a 9 mm handgun and a boat load of ammo  (especially 9mm),  all purchased after Obama,  all of it legal. 

Understand,  that the mere size of the gun-owning population,  makes repressive gun regulations most difficult to enforce.  Those of us in the know,  in this state,  are aware that rifles and shotgun registration is filed with the state and destroyed,  within a year,  by the state  . . . . .   literally,  too much paperwork.

At any rate,  my point is simply this:  the Radical Liberal community,  in our country,  is at the end of their time.  They will resurrect,  of course,  but we may be looking at a 20 period in which Conservatives will have the time and power to mend the fences and repair the damage being done to our once great nation. 


As things stand at this moment in time,  however,  the Dems are on a down turn that began with the first months of the Obama Administration.  The strangle hold of an aging class of leaders combined with a policy of lies and cover-ups,   insures the continuation of this down ward trend.  Good for them.

  1. What might get missed in your commentary, is the fact that "youth attracts youth." Assuming that to be true, if the old guard dems insist on full control of the party, and the GOP continues to receive the 40 to 55 year old leader, it will be only a short time before the nation will be looking to a young and dynamic GOP.
