Losing the Red Heat: Has the American Republican Party Lost its Groove?

Losing the Red Heat: Has the American Republican Party Lost its Groove?
By Marc Chamot

I have read a whole lot of blogs on the Net. There are many fine blogs around, both conservative and liberal. The thing that bugs me the most and what I have noticed is that conservatives are not as united on the Net.

There seem to be a sibling rivalry going on among conservatives on the Net to want to unify for common cause. The far left liberals and moderates, dominate the Net-ways far better than conservatives do. It’s something that’s been intriguing me for over a year and a half.

I don’t have a liberal view in my blood, but I may be a little too revolutionary at times for conservatives to like any of my blogs. Liberals and some moderates really like revolutionaries, while conservatives view them as troublemakers. It’s the snob thing that annoys me the most about Web conservatives as a whole.

That’s why the Republican conservative party GOT thrashed at the polls in the last two elections, since 2006. I am not talking about all conservatives; I’m talking about the ones with the money, the ARROGANTLY wealthy Republican conservatives.

You know which ones I’m talking about. The ones that like to follow the Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh’s of the world type of conservatives. The very same people that like to stick their heads into the sand; these are the same conservatives that when they stumble upon a dead horse, they’ll give you ten different reasons as to why the horse is still alive, regardless to the fact that horse is dead.

It’s never been truer that conservative talk show hosts Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh have failed us in a big way. For the past three years I’ve been listening to their radio shows, they never once criticized nor mentioned anything about the impending economic crisis. They have been so brain washed to despise democrats that they never saw any thing wrong within their own party of choice. They never criticized President Bush and the Republicans in power on some of their idiotic domestic economic policies that were leading us into this path of disaster.

I am amazed that many moderate liberals and right leaning moderates like my postings. It’s never been quite more evident as to who have been carrying some of my postings.

Through my backtracking on the links on my posted articles, and through my two syndicated networking sites, Newstex, and Blogburst. Quite many of my articles ended up in moderate to liberal mediums like Reuters, Chicago Sun, USA Today, Rocket News, Bloomberg, and a few others on their websites. And a few of my articles have also ended up on moderate and left leaning discussion boards.

Not one, not a single Republican conservative blogs or website have ever carried any of my postings, with the exception of my few conservative fellow bloggers on the Net that support what I write.

What this tells me, is that the liberals are far more organized on the Net than conservatives are. Liberals are more unified in common causes and are more open to new ideas, and that’s why they’re winning, in contrary to conservative beliefs.

Republican media hacks are still crying over spilled milk. They refuse to admit their weaknesses within the party. They still don’t understand that the old ways of doing business in America is no longer acceptable. A party that is massively too corporate, Wall Street driven, rather than we the people driven, Main Street folks like us, will keep them back for years.

Until the party changes their agendas and anti-American worker political ideologies, and their EGOS, there is nothing in the world that they can do to fix their tarnished image, But unless, of course, the Democrats fall flat on their faces. Even then, Republicans would be a tough sell for someone like me in the future.

There will be always an exception to this rule, naturally, there will always be Republicans winning key state races over Democrats in some areas. For example, in California, all Democratic candidates for the 2010 governor’s race don’t have a chance against a more moderate, conservative Republican governor candidate. Proposition 8 showed that. 22 out of last 26 years have been Republican governors in California.
