As of today, almost every important swing state is either up for grabs or is heavily Democratic
leaning - thanks to Ryan's Medicare plan.

This could be why the Repubs. seldom ever talk about what plans they have
in mind for the nation -- these plans invariably harm the people. It's much
better for them to criticize the Dem's plans, and simply shut up about their own.

1. Of course the Repubs couldn't possibly say nothing about
their own plans continuously, without looking bad. They're caught between the devil
and the deep blue sea. Then there is no other alternative for them but to come out
with propaganda, and full-blown lies, like accusing the Dems of the evil that they
themselves are doing. They are past-masters of the art of lying. In the meantime.
what are they doing to their own souls?

I believe that the average Repub. leader believes in no God. They make a big song
and dance about God just to ingratiate themselvs with the evangelists, so as to
get their votes. It' one big lie after another.

An unworthier bunch of low-lifes there has never been. Members may come from old-monied,
well-do-do families, but their behavior shows that they are nothing more than monied
low-lifes -- the bottom scrapings of the barrel, as far as their humanity is concerned.

2. You're right about the Repubs. My question is why don't the Dem politicians
make use of their weak points, shine the klieg lights on them, and hit them
over the head with it hard and often. And every time the Repubs. can be
caught lying and inventing stories, hit them again and again?

That's what the Repubs would have done to the Dems, if the situation were
reversed. But the Dems. don't do that too often, and when they do, it's
very briefly.

I think this only encourages the Repubs. to increase their propaganda and
lying, since the Dems. for the most part let them get away with it.

Precious opportunities wasted.
