So why have Republicans lost the popular vote in 5 out of the last 6 presidential elections?
Either adapt to socially and environmentally progressive politics or die out. Your choice.

We will never die out.The reason is because it is my kind of religious extremism that got a convoy of food and supplies into New Jersey while your kind of Progressive politics were arguing about Union dues.The reason is because my kind of religious extremism still spend weeks on end visiting NO to rebuild homes after Katrina. Years after FEMA packed up and went home.The reason is because my kind of religious extremism is responsible for 95% of charitable aid in Africa, Asia and the Middle east while the UN debate there is a problem.The reason is because my kind of religious extremism donates upwards of 30% of their income to their churches and charitable causes while your kind of Progressive politics think that OTHER people should pay their "fair share.".The reason is because my kind of religious extremism gets off their asses and regularly feed the poor while your kind of Progressive politics complain that the Govt should be doing more.The reason is because my kind of religious extremism gives food and clothes to "migrant workers" because they are in need, while your kind of Progressive politics are more concerned about giving them the vote.And these, are only the things that I, an allegedly right wing nutjob according to some, is involved in. That is why we will never die out. We care, but we believe that if you really do care get off your fat ass and stop blaming someone else!

I appreciate things done voluntarily to help others , rather than by force. One is TRUE compassion , the other is theft in the name of compassion.I doubt I agree with many of your social beliefs , but anyone telling you you have to be more like them or become extinct is using scare tactics. All it takes is a swing of about 5 or less percentage points in the swing states and you guys are in office again. Hardly an insurmountable obstacle. It won't require any changing at all , just let Obama's doomed collectivist economic policies do the work for you. The cliff is up ahead.
Demographics. The Republicans will never win again due to this. I'm a Republican and admit this but hey..cheer up...Republicans will be successful whether a Democrat or a Republican is in office....it's the Democrats that will continue to be lower middle class!
...So, they're supposed to change everything they believe in? Wouldn't that make them...democrats?I guess that is what Obama means when he says he wants bipartisanship? So much for different opinions and open minds.

The more free stuff they can give, the more votes they can buy. There was an article in Pravda I think it was that spoke about illiterate American voters. How can you argue against that when the American voters vote FOR Obama and all he represents, and then say in a Gallup less than a month later that they don't believe the Federal Govt should get involved in and run healthcare. How dumb and contradictory is that? What it comes down to is many Americans currently believe that benefits and entitlements should be cut because we cannot afford them, except for the ones THEY are getting because they are right and just. Republicans will fight a rear guard action, but eventually it will fail and to blunt, we will eventually run out of money and the tide will turn because even in the folly of self involvement, people will realize the road we are walking is unsustainable.In the UK, they raised the upper tax rate to 50% for millionaires because they were not 'paying their fair share." The end result is that the number of millionaires paying taxes fell from 16,000 to 6,000. Instead of all this additional revenue, they lost 7 Billion pounds. Go figure. Apparently the millionaires either moved or stopped working so hard. Who wud have thunk that? Definitely not CBW because according to him increasing tax rates doesn't alter peoples behavior. Wait till they bring in the wealth tax. Boy is that gonna cause a few issues!

While liberals are out being creative, making music, entertainment, innovations, and businesses, all while running society like a well oiled robot, conservatives are on the sideline **CENSORED**ing and moaning how no one wants to watch Jerry Falwell with them any more.lol
