The original post I wrote in response was so long I am not even going to try and condense it. Just to add one more thing - I'm sure we all know this - but anway, the right is going through what the left did during Bush. Insane paranoia and exagerrated cartoonishness over the evil imposter in the White House whose an imminent threat. The left said bush was a fundie fascist nazi preparing death camps and to suspend democracy. The right say obama is a communist reptile presiding over a communist fema camp dystopia. But politics is about turning fear and hope into soundbites for the careers of managers. The right might take another few cycles to purge themselves of the crazy, but they will do it, because the establishment party is always shuffling its seats, and voting is just the legitimization of this process. The blessing of the secular mangod by the holy individuation of the masses. During the Bush years there were the New Republic pro war hawks who quietly made the case that they could run the neo con death machine just as enthusiastically. The right will sell themselves out and the manipulated prole voter masses will be so relieved to have the jumped up spectre of Stalinist Obama off their backs they'll gladly vote for a moderate eventually.
