True. McCain and Bush never understood this, they were always trying to play nice and "reach across the aisle". All that does is get your arm bitten off. You must crush your enemy, not try to have tea and cookies with him. Libs/dems understand this. Repub/conservatives do not. Or perhaps did not. Things seem to be changing.
I foresee such conservatism in government after 2010 and 2012 the likes of which we never dreamed could happen again. We will be drilling for oil, reducing taxes, reducing the size of government, eliminating a lot of entitlements, closing the borders, taking care of business on terrorism, etc. Prosperity shall reign. It will be good again.
