Trends

Any election from now on will appear as 'no trend' (to anyone who does not understand what's happening on the ground). Instability? Perhaps. The Left is breaking apart between Obama sycophants, toadies and lackeys; and those who think that Obama is not radical enough. Republicans think they can just waltz into the breach. They couldn’t be more hopelessly wrong!

It's not about parties anymore. Republicans are just as distrusted and despised as Democrats, particularly if they are perceived as trying to be more like Democrats (or ueber-Democrats) in hopes of winning elections; particularly if they have mocked or tried to marginalize popular conservative talk show hosts and tea parties participants in order to gain favor with the press; particularly if they have consistently broken ranks with their own party for the sake of expediency; particularly if they have remained silent since Obama has been in office.

Republicans too will be voted out along with the Dems. The (as of yet unspoken) trend is towards a movement to impeach the president in his first term. Anyone - Republican, Democrat or plutonian - who implicitly or explicitly promises to work towards this singular objective automatically wins.
