In their typically duplicitous fashion, Republican ''moderates'' who orchestrated this latest electoral catastrophe are once again blaming the lingering vestige of conservatism in the McCain campaign as the factor that ultimately doomed its prospects.
The underhanded Democrat tactics of the 2008 political season are no less a declaration of war on the conventions and institutions of the American heartland than were the numerous Islamist attacks preceding 9/11. And anything short of a full and appropriate political and ideological counterattack from the right will guarantee its eventual defeat.
As a result of this week’s elections, the Republican minority caucus in the United States Senate currently represents the sole remnant of a “firewall” against an uncontrolled implementation of the liberal agenda.
It is a safe bet that Barack Obama will never again engage “Joe the Plumber” or anyone like him in a discussion of policy without “preconditions.” Some things are just too dangerous to the future of liberal America to be left to chance.
Democrat vice-presidential candidate Joe Biden predicted a horrendous international “test” for Obama, should he be elected. He has since been effectively muzzled by the Obama camp, since such alarming truths pose great risks to the Democrat ticket. But Biden was right, more than he knows.

By now it should be painfully obvious to all but the most myopic liberal pawns that their Democrat leadership is not concerned with America’s financial status, but is instead milking the situation for every bit of political advantage it might achieve for them.
As a direct result of his “community organizing” work, Obama garnered a huge store of expertise that promises to be extremely useful in implementing his agenda should he become president. But it is the nature of that agenda, and the means by which he intends to implement it, that should have Americans gravely concerned.
The entire dynamic of the 2008 presidential race changed dramatically the moment Republican candidate John McCain announced his pick of Palin for VP. Grassroots Republicans, who at best had previously been lackluster in their support for McCain, were suddenly enthusiastic. And Palin has since become the most notable and influential political figure on the national scene.
