No matter what happens tonight, the demographics are changing, and the republicans are an endangered

[still_one]

species. They just don't realize it yet, but its coming

[a kennedy]

1. Yah, but what sh*t do we have to live through to get there?

And seriously how long is it going to take?

[still_one]

4. two years

[femmocrat]

2. We keep hearing that....

Yet they find more ways to corrupt the system. Voter suppression, Citizens United, gerrymandering, etc. Who knows what they will come up with next!

[Cleita]

5. They are getting close to setting up fiefs and crowning

a king. Then none of us wage serfs will have a say. They probably won't even have to bother with the token election process. Then the coup of 2000 will be complete.

[Liberalynn]

8. I know.

We will be lucky if they let us have another election.

[PAProgressive28]

3. We keep saying that and it's true

but it's not changing things as fast as we thought. We have to get our act together.

[d_b]

6. I keep hearing that

how much longer before these fucks die off, or whatever?

[JI7]

7. they realize it, at least the establishmEnt does

That's why they are trying to make it tougher to vote for certain people

[barbtries]

9. what's terrible about that to me

is that i've been saying that for YEARS. they should have gone the way of the whigs and tories years ago and they haven't!
do you still believe americans are smart enough to get rid of them? well i agree it's bound to happen, but i am growing bitter these days because it will not happen fast enough. i may not even live to see it happen, and that sucks.

[GoCubsGo]

10. Oh, they realize it, alright.

It's why they've been working so hard to suppress the votes of the demographics that don't support them.

[libtodeath]

11. Should be true but with voter suppression,media fawning and election fraud

will it matter?

[maced666]

12. been hearing that for 2 decades

Still they live

[derby378]

13. Ain't that the truth? (n/t)

[Feron]

14. Relying on demographical changes is a losing strategy.

The Democratic party is going to have to give people something to vote for rather than take the votes of certain demographics for granted.

Continuing to pursue neoliberal policies is a great way to lose allies for starters.

15. Seems like it's time for

a movement of mass proportion whereby we find a way to strangle this beast.
