Game over

November 22nd, 2008

Looks like Francis is pretty much fed up with the Repugs too. And then there’s this:

The GOP strategist had been joking about the upcoming presidential election and giving his humorous assessments of the candidates. Then he suddenly cut out the schtick and got scary serious. “Let me tell you something, if Democrats take the White House and pass a big-government healthcare plan, that’s it. Game over. Government will dominate the economy like it does in Europe. Conservatives will spend the rest of their lives trying to turn things around and they will fail.”

There’s more, all of it on target, and I must say I just don’t see any way to avoid what’s coming. His point about Social Security is telling.

Update! My apologies to Jeff Medcalf, who actually wrote the Eternity Road piece I linked above. Thanks to Francis for pointing that out, and to Jeff for his always-excellent work.

    I must give credit where credit is due: the Eternity Road article linked above is actually the work of Esteemed Co-Conspirator Jeff Medcalf, formerly of Caerdroia. Jeff's political analyses have become prominent among our jewels.

    Dang it, Francis, I didn't pay close enough attention. I'll mention it in an update, and thanks for calling it to my attention.
