Hopefully this can be achieved in the long run. The conservative bubble has always been detrimental to the country and its politics, so the fact it's starting to get detrimental to the GOP's viability could be a good thing. Since I really don't like the idea of 40% of the country isolating itself in a bubble and growing angrier and angrier at the fact reality doesn't fit their narrow views, I think this would be in the interest of everyone.

It won't take one day to clean up Bullsh*t Mountain, but it could be a gradual process. Maybe Nov. 6 will be the beginning of the end... one can hope. Smiley

National polls had a Republican bias but State polls (with the exception of Rassy and other joke pollsters) were relatively accurate. This is another important lesson: State polls are historically better than national polls to predict the outcome of the election.

None of it matters really. I think the media is more of a paper tiger these days than anything else. Empirical evidence will need to be demonstrably demonstrate that Obama's policies are flawed for the GOP to come back. For that to happen, some of those policies will need to be implemented first. It will be a hard, long slog methinks.

If only... Bullsh*t Mountain is ready to completely freak out even while the administration is unable to do anything meaningful.
