"The GOP should embrace economic patriotism, border security, and peace," says Pat Buchanan. But it won't. That is now the Democrats, if anyone.
Anyone talking about economic patriotism other than border security, and without which border security is impossible, never mind anyone talking about peace, needs to ... well, just try it, anywhere where Republicans congregate.
As Labour collapses with its own MPs demanding Miliband's resignation (it's rude of me to intrude on private grief) a new opinion poll shows 60% of the population plan to vote either Tory or UKIP in 2015.
ReplyDeletePeter Hitchens was absolutely right.
If they just did the sensible thing and abandoned the Tories for UKIP we'd wipe the floor with Useless Labour.
The polls prove it.
The people still voting Tory would no more vote UKIP (or anything else but Tory) than vote Labour. They will only ever vote Tory, and that is that. The people voting UKIP would vote Tory if UKIP did not exist. Therein lies the difference.
DeleteLast night's Any Questions audience in rural Devon screamed down Douglas Carswell for suggesting that UKIP was not racist. You are in for one hell of a shock when the votes are counted.
