It took David Perdue about 20 seconds of speechifying to expose a tension roiling the Republican Party. Speaking in January, the former business executive turned Georgia candidate for U.S. Senate asked a group of local Republicans to parse the resumes of his primary foes.
"There's a high-school graduate in this race, okay?" said Perdue, referring to his opponent, former Georgia Secretary of State Karen Handel. "I'm sorry, these issues are so much broader, so complex. There's only one candidate in this race who's ever lived outside the United States. How can you bring value to a debate about the economy unless you have any understanding about the free-enterprise system and what it takes to compete in the global economy?"
this already is shaping up to be your today's republican nut job, republicans promote themselves as know all everything they have absurd opinions about any topic except they all seem to be around wealth and not sharing the opportunity to get it by anyone but them. as far as global anything.
Bush nor Romney never seem to involve themselves without put down, we'er better than you attitudes guess it's true "people sure act funny when they have a little money", but by now we would be at war with Iran, Syria, Russia at the same time the republicans are always selling wolf tickets they expect your kids to cash for them.
The two-pronged swipe elicited cries of condescension and elitism that eventually forced Perdue to apologize. And it revealed a vital reality about the state of the Republican Party as its members prepare to select a standard-bearer for the 2016 presidential primary: The GOP has long ago shed its stereotype of being the party catering to the wealthy.
i disagree they still are the party catering to rich have you heard anymore about loopholes, or taxes still pushing deregulation so they can pollute and save a buck, no wage hike or health care because it would "HURT BUSINESS".
These days, the GOP tone and agenda are set by a voting bloc of mostly white, blue-collar workers whose sensibilities skew more toward NASCAR than golf. In a general election, the party's most reliable supporters are white voters without college degrees. And they increasingly control the contest for the White House nod: In 2008, according to a tabulation of exit-poll data acquired by the National Journal, blue-collar workers made up 51 percent of all GOP primary voters.
their focus has always been on their base every 4 years than it's back where you belong curbside without a view. all that we are complaining about their doing to us is equally unleashed on their blind voters remember G W Bush, "you can fool some of the people all of the time and those are the ones you want to concentrate on", sounds like they pay plenty of attention to their base like i said every 4 years. and then it's how to lie to them and have them look forward to it. remember Romney and Ryan lied their way to defeat nonstop.
