Here's what we are going do eventually, we are eventually going to boot a blue state or two or some blue cities from the American union and see what happens to them.

Meanwhile, here on Earth One, a lot of formerly red people are turning blue.

You ought to check every once in a while against reality before you start sharing daydreams.

Really?? I don't know a red voter who is turning blue. But, I do know several middle aged blues who are turning more red or already turned red a while ago. I assume an uppity old liberal college boy like yourself doesn't spend as much quality time interacting with fowl mouthed middle of the road/middle American college people and regular working class people these days. I think you better start checking reality vs relying on popular opinion and whatever the liberals who are paid to tell you what you want to hear are saying these days. You don't seem like the type who can handle bad news or handle accepting that you're wrong either.

You're right about me. You've been speaking with a modern day American Revolutionary who doesn't think much of the revolutionaries associated with Democratic side or think much of the Democratic party itself. People like me don't give a shit about popular opinion and tend to go by the results they see or project. You're FUCKED EITHER WAY AT THIS POINT. Do you prefer to go down with a Democrat at the helm or spared by a Republican. Dude, I don't care if Bumbling Biden and the Bumbling party run by a bunch of money/power hungry Jackasses go down hard and results in more chaos. Oh, and if our kids are called upon to serve and go in and clean up your party's fucking mess. I hope you and every other blue fool knows when its time to swallow your fucking tongue, accept reality and look the other way for you own sake.

It's always amazing to me that you and other Republicans can say that in the light of Citizens United. Have you ever heard of it? And other decisions and policies. Every supreme court judge in that case who voted to keep money in politics was appointed by a Republican president; every judge who voted to keep it out was appointed by a Democrat. Always it is the case that when proposals to take more money out of politics come up, Democrats vote for them and Republicans strenuously opposed them. The same with Wall Street Reform. So who are the money hungry Jackasses?

If you want the facts about who is turning blue and who's not, you'd better look at the polls that I post here instead of talking to a few of your neighbors out in exurban Minneapolis.
