What is interesting to me about these political conversion stories is that the movement is most frequently from liberal to conservative, and less often the other direction.

The canary didn't die because this mine is dangerous, it died because it's lazy and wasn't raised with a proper work ethic.

A man that is not liberal when young has no heart . A man that is not conservative when he is old has no brain.

You won't see much movement towards the liberal end of things in an individual lifetime . Culturally, yes, as liberals win electoral points along the way ( even the most conservative version of America is still liberal compared to an earlier time ) . But I can't think of too many people that start out as young republicans and then go the other way .
Don't know what it is, but I'm agin'it.

And somehow (Tinker will be the first to tell you) that as divorced from whatever conservatives are, Democrats are just as bad.

Let see.

Republicrats gain control of the US House.

Demopublicans retain control of the US Senate.

POTUS remains a Demopublican at least until 2012.

According to the US MSM this changes everything. Let's consider history . . .

Probably the most interesting result is that California's Prop 19 went up in smoke. The policing + incarceration industrial complex carried the day.

Must agree with CS here. I'm underwhelmed. I thought the GOP/Tea Party juggernaut would take the house and the senate.

Mr. P. I saw your remarkably long diatribes to JN and BS on that other board:

To paraphrase Dean Martin,

Relax pally, it's only a mid term election. :wink:

With all due respect CS, I don't think you have any idea of the sh@#%storm that is about to be unleashed.

And recently I've noted a susceptibility on your part to be misled by various left wing media products. Very intriguing development to me, will get back to you on it hopefully soon.
