Have the Republicans figured out why they lost yet?

According to the responses in this thread, no, they haven't figured it out yet.

It's got the same screen name. I did report a bunch of her posts as spam. So I don't know nor do I care all that much.

For the life of me I cannot fathom why.

Count the "n's".

The real mystery is why someone would make the effort.

Combination boredom and impulse. Seemed a fair gag at the time, and it helps to know this is my only account. Sadly I've lapsed into a more genuine voice rather quickly.

Sadly is the operative word.

This is much closer to the truth when you consider Mittens polesters didn't know what they were doing.

I liked that second link. The Obama internal pollsters never hesitated to share their methodology and crosstabs. Team Romney seemed to exist in a Vettebigot-class reality distortion field.

Like I said in another thread: Political dysmorphic disorder.

They're like an anorectic looking in the mirror and thinking "If only I was thinner..."

+1.

What's funny is that despite everyone (except for the veiggiebots on this board) telling them they're doing it wrong the GOP still isn't sure about this whole internet thing.

This used to be a white man's country. Its not anymore. It used to be possible for a white man to get a good job. Now the blacks get the best jobs because of affirmative action. We are trying to build up America. Blacks, liberals, and sex perverts are tearing it down.

Actually, it used to be a non-white's country. Then the Europeans arrived and brought slaves and native Americans were wiped out.. I would think that since this is a country based on "all men are created equal," this means jobs are open to all, unless this really isn't a nation based on equality for all. Lit is a porn site. If you really hated liberals and sex perverts, you wouldn't be here. Just sayin.

Great article...thank for linking that.

I almost...ALMOST...feel sorry for the Rapepublicans.

They have toxic policies that don't appeal to anyone but bitter old white men, and they firmly believe they just have to "message" better.

BUT...the flipside is they are so far behind technology-wise that I doubt they'll catch up anytime in the next ten years.

The problem is that they are wedded to the "hate radio model"...i.e. one way communication "us to you". AM radio is perfect for that sort of messaging.

The internet, by contrast, is a feedback loop, a two-way communication that Democrats excel at and can exploit masterfully.

Best quote from the article: "who here knows what Reddit is? One out of 250 'media experts'". Absolutely clueless.

I'm also amazed at how poor their overall program management is. They spent millions on an election day get-out-the-vote application and NEVER TESTED IT. They "tested" it on election day, and it failed. That's borderline criminal negligence for a project manager. Faith-based project management.

The oldest human skeleton found in North America is a Caucasian.

How is that possible? You're not even dead yet.

 

[landslider2000]

Describing Repubs as "bitter" and "old" isn't intelligent conversation.

As Schlesinger Sr. noted, there are ideological cycles in politics.

 

[RobDownSouth]

Describing Repubs as "bitter" and "old" isn't intelligent conversation.

But it is exceptionally accurate.

 

[landslider2000]

Not accurate.

Such simplisms are mere juvenile trollery.

Oh, the Grand Old Party might be out of the loop, but they have net savvy cheerleaders. They don't call it the right wing blogosphere for no reason.

The bones were white.

 

[LadyVer]

The bones were white.

Interesting. I guess it depends on where the bones were found and how they were preserved. If I'm not mistaken Bogman's bones looked pretty brown.

Assuming it's true, so what?

DNA evidence shows we all started in Ethiopia, migrated to the Middle East, then to Central Asia, across Siberia then across to Alaska and on down to South America. At least as far as the original inhabitants of 15,000-20,000 years ago.

I've read that before, but I'm fairly certain it's not true.

Cycles, yes; pendulums, no.

Even if the Arlington Springs woman is the oldest and sailed down the Pacific coast, her ancestors ultimately came from the same places ours did.

The criminals own both parties and all the politicians. They own the media, the courts, they own everything.

The NSA is illegally recording every conversation on the planet. Blackmail potential through the roof. The police state marches on, irrelevant to what clown politician is in Congress or the White House.

You're either stupid or a partisan hack. Either one makes you a contemptible wretch.

both of you are fucking idiots
