Since the GOP lacks viable candidates, I think that their best strategy would be to concede the election to the team of Obama/Biden. The GOP is a minority party and does best with a sparse voter turnout. One way to ensure a low turnout by independents and Democrats would be to concede the office of president. Then GOP candidates might do better in down-ticket contests.

The culture wars are back. Why now? Because the Republicans are desperate for a winning issue. Despite their best efforts, the economy is limping along toward recovery, and Barack’s poll numbers are inching up. The GOP lacks a viable candidate to oppose Barack. Their manufactured scandals, Solyndra and Fast and Furious, are being exposed as the frauds they are. Contrived culture wars are the only remaining way to energize their base and distract the voters.

Will it work? No. Their timing is off; they started too early. The next 6 months will bore many of us silly. The Barack Obama Truth Team will have plenty of time to refute their charges before the election. Sorry guys and gals, Barack will win re-election this year. Better luck in 2016.

Some bloggers have already posted written or You Tube warnings to Ron Paul not to run as a third-party candidate. They profess fear that a Ron Paul candidacy will cost the eventual GOP nominee the election. In contrast, I am encouraging Ron Paul to run if he decides he should. Barack is going to be re-elected regardless, and a Ron Paul candidacy will be a convenient scapegoat for the GOP to blame.

Some arguers against a third-party candidate cite 1992 when Bill Clinton won with less than 50% of the vote. Others go back to 1912 when Teddy Roosevelt split the GOP vote and Taft, the incumbent, finished third behind Wilson and TR. I enjoy pointing out that the GOP was a third-party candidate in 1856 when the Whigs were a fading power. The 1860 campaign was a 4-party race. I do honestly believe that the GOP will be replaced as a major party in the near future if they do not start supporting the 99% instead of the 1%.

As Lincoln said, “You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time.“

Barack offers hope and change while the Republicans offer no hope and no change, or as I label it, nope and negativity. A few of the leaders of the GOP are starting to recognize that the voters WANT hope and change. They are advising the rank and file to change their tune. TOO LATE. Too few of the GOP will realize their mistake until after the November election.

Both the TEA Party and Occupy Wall Street indicate a need for change. Much like the distant rumble of thunder indicates an approaching storm or a swarm of small tremblors may indicate an imminent major quake, the voters are signaling that business as usual is not acceptable. The party that responds best to this desire for hope and change will be the winner for years to come. The GOP is starting from far back of the Democrats, but the Democratic Party is not home free either. The voters want real change, not lip service.
