How long in the desert?
 

That was one of the questions asked at a breakfast meeting I attended
today with a financial services client and a couple of others across the
river in Alexandria.

More specifically, how long will the Republicans be wandering in the
desert until they can elect a president again?

Consensus: 16-20 years, minimum, and maybe never unless the party makes
significant changes in its attitudes towards Latinos, blacks, social
issues.

The financial services guy manages several funds, including a large-cap
fund. He thinks many of today's large-cap corporations will never come
back, and if there is a market rebound, the smaller corporations will
lead the way. His advice to me: stay the hell away from "the market."

Oh...the financial times we're in right now...some fund managers are
referring to it as the "Bush Recession," and others, the "Bush Depression."

If that's true then you must run with some damned stupid "fund
managers". They don't know the meaning of "recession" OR "depression"
in regards to the U.S. economy.

When obama fails to give free gas, cars and rent to his constituents as
they think he promised, any Republican will beat him in 2012 possible 2008

Sounds like an equally represented group of liberals and conservatives to
me.

Harry, are you over your rancor yet?


Rancor? Hehehe.

Eat schitt and die. Soon.

BTW, I had a nice meeting in the coffee shop at the Hotel Monaco in your
fair city. Weird lobby decor, though. I resisted the urge to drive over
to your place and drop off a doggy bag.

As long as it wasn't your pustule stuff!

I'd have just brought it up to your house and returned it.

You should have asked them if the Red Sox will win the pennant next year.

Well, if they get the "censorship doctrine" (fairness doctrine) and
keep funding voter fraud through ACORN, it could indeed be a while
before republicans are able to speak their point of view...

Are you actually stating that reich-wing Republican radio is all that
the GOP has to reach its troops? You boys are betting the future of the
party on the drug-taking boil known as Rush Limbaugh?- Hide quoted text -

Somewhere in your fairytale land maybe, but the censorship doctrine is
on the way and I just saw an ad for the bill that would take away our
right to a secret ballot on Unions. The trashing of the constitution
is just beginning, despite the lies and misrepresentations of the left
for the last 8 years..
