Grady, to be hones I hope they do, but there does need to be some real soul searching down to where the far right even gets their message/information.... here is an interesting article. Basically shows where the information on the right was so far off base.Hopefully this election will serve as a wake up call to the GOP and that some of power is removed from the mossbacks. Here is to hoping that groups like the Rocky Mountain Black Conservatives and the Colorado Hispanic Republicans continue to grow and have a strong voice.

Which of course is total BS. You need to watch and read something other than right wing echo chambers.RenegadeCJ wrote:

????? Huh? What message? The only message they brought out was "romney is a rich white guy who is gonna push grandma over the cliff". Not once did I see an ad showing what Obama was for. There was no message other than scare tactics. (of course, maybe that is the message you meant)

There were "big time" hearings on Benghazi, remember? Most Americans prefer to review the results of a fair and impartial investigation before rushing to judgement or to politicize terrible tragedies. As far as fear, that is a Republican concept. Hope is the Democratic concept. The President was able to keep us out of a depression according to most if not all credible economists. As to your kid's generation's work ethic, that is instilled at a familial level, not ordained by government. Personal responsibility begins at home and is taught by what should be their role models which would be their parents.CinnamonGirl wrote: Republicans are going to fry him for Libya. There most likely will be some big time hearings on that.
And as far as libs thinking that now republicans have to do soul searching and change their ways. The same thing was said when Bush won two elections. Major traumas to countries are the only thing that changes things. 9/11 caused Bush to be elected because of fear. Obama used fear. A depression will change things. Just wait for that one big "thing" to come.
But I am serious about this one. I read several articles about more kids living at home. They are happy living at home and working part time right now. If they live on their own with no safety net, this would not have happened. When their parents die and they have no where else to live it will change. My kids generation are a bunch of kids that don't like to work. (generally of course). They don't have to either. When they finally have to pay their own way I predict this wave will change. It always does. A major event will do it. But for now most people seem happy enough. Those who work will either give up or keep paying for it. Let's see what happens.
Romney's message of I will get you back to work only appealed to those that are hard workers being nickled and dimed by the bad economy and inflation and the majority don't have to work anymore. So, there you go.
