Republicans are due to suffer a major defeat this November, despite extremely poor economic conditions that would otherwise have made this an easy election for them.
Their brand is simply dead. They don't stand for anything except to obstruct everything the opposition party is doing. Their failed economic policies of trickle down are no longer palatable to the American public nor is their hyper aggressive foreign policy. What we are seeing this election is a direct result of that, Romney refuses to go into any specific details about his policies because his campaign knows just how unpopular they are as a whole.
I went back and watched portions of the RNC and DNC today and never before have I seen such a stark contrast between the parties. The DNC was simply alive, the Democratic party is a reflection of the America most people live in. They truly are a big tent party in every sense of the word. This country has always been center right as a whole, and the Democrats are finally learning how to appeal to that independent moderate voter.
The RNC, in contrast, was a funeral. No matter how many ethnic faces they threw up on stage, it could not take away from the fact that their base is overwhelmingly white and old. There's no future here and the one bright spot in their party that is attracting youth, the Libertarian wing, they cast away in a very unceremonious fashion.
I believe we are seeing the end of the Republican brand as we know it. They will lose this November and I believe hard questions will be asked amongst the leadership of the party that will force them to abandon the hyper aggressive and obstructionist Tea Party wing in favor of a platform that can attract more moderate and Independent voters. Ultimately, this is a win-win for the country. We desperately need a responsible opposition party and the Republicans have been failing in that department for quite some team.
