Will these college unrest lead to a GOP landslide in '16? (party, government)

Remember 1968? Rioting blacks and the students at the Democratic convention won that election for Richard Nixon.

A large portion of the "Silent Majority" are as dead as Nixon; otherwise they wouldn't have lost the popular vote 5 of the last 6 times.

America watches in amazement the daily news videos of these misguided whiners.
I compare it to the toxic Occupy Wall Street or the ever-famous Obama phone lady. What a joke that was!
These student's actions will ultimately harm them, and once they realize their mistake they will have lost a lot of time and ground in preparing their futures. They will find they wasted all of Daddy's money at college, and can't qualify for a good job.
Resentment of me and my peers will have zero effect. We did what was needed and we can now relax.

When you have liberals going against other liberals, this just leads to disorganization and unrest which will lead to a non-united front at the elections. So essentially, yes, we will win the elections. And thank God.

The GOP landslide is going to happen regardless of what these idiots want.

I was always under the impression that the "Silent Majority" was just the dead people that the Democrats still had voting.
