Judging by the explosion of thread titles/subjects on here it's becoming obvious that the Rs strategy of "Obama is failing", "the depression is here" and "Iran and North Korea will invade us tomorrow" have failed pretty miserably. They've tried to show Eric Kantor and "tan man" as "true statesmen" and "the face of the loyal opposition" but that has been a bust as well, witness the rection to the "opposition budget".

Likewise the "teleprompter" (only effective with a few C-D posters), the "too much staff to the G-20" and "OMG, it's an iPod" and "she dared to touch the royal person". All of these have come a cropper and showed the bankruptcy of the right wing.

Now comes the guaranteed winner! And what do you think that is? It's a remake of the "Michelle Obama hates America, is a terrorist and derogates US by using the word 'whitey'". But in its new form (currently about 6 or 7 threads running) it's "OMG, she looks like a tranny".

For the record I'd really like to see what some of these posters and their loved ones look like in real life, actually I have a pretty good idea, if you've ever seen an episode of "Cops", you've probably seen some of our folks getting "hooked up" and told to "watch your head ma'am".

But the real question, the one that makes me go "hmmmm" is this. WHY ARE THESE POSTERS SO FAMILIAR WITH WHAT "TRANNIES" LOOK LIKE?

Have that many of you taken "Trinidad vacations"?

I'm hoping that all of those who can't stop criticizing Michelle Obama are the fringiest of the fringe of the GOP. If they're not, God help 'em. We're watching the implosion of the Republican Party right here.

Like the ones that cant leave Palin alone? They lost yet look at all the threads started about her.

Difference is Michelle is actually 1st lady. So lets ignore the actual president and 1st lady and focus on Palin. She is so darn important that we must follow her every move and beat in the ground anything that has the word Palin in it.

Anything to take away the focus on Obama

It's real simple. The Republicans need new Leadership. Change we can believe in. Someone who advocates Hope and not despair.

True. Right now, in absence of a meaningful direction, the strategy seems to be to throw all kinds of crap and see what sticks. Some of the threads are truly pathetic - both sides have them but Rs seem to be well ahead -- and this will keep on turning independents away.

The republicans couldn't get any traction if they had a 4x4 on dry asphalt.

If you disagree with something someone else said or claimed (especially when talking about politics), does that mean they're obviously a republican and their comment is yet another part of their new strategy they're struggling with and will never be able to pull off....lol.

Good point...I am an independant not tied to any party because frankly I think they all pretty much are blood suckers and we need to perhaps have some very strong 3rd party candidates to look at in the next election. And all of us should pledge not to allow money (how many ads they run) sway us. Go out and see the candidates. Let them do town halls and listen to what they have to say. Then vote your conscience. We will probably still get screwed but at least it will make for some interesting discussions.

This argument illustrates the most childish & oblivious mentality that's run rampant in the party. The glaring example of zero credibility. Spiteful meritless attacks have nothing to do with the qualifications of serving office. Republicans have allowed themselves to be sullied by a bunch of monkeys flinging poo and it's a one party system until you get your heads out of your behinds. Either that or lose your chair forever for a more deserving party. The longer this goes on, the more appropriate that sounds to me.
