Reed Is Seen as First Casualty, and Parties Brace for More

I have to say, I still haven't recovered from the revelation that Reed lost in the Georgia Republican primary. The Republican party as a whole is a massive support of corruption and criminality. From the top to the bottom of the party, Republicans revel in the criminality of their leadership and happily go to bat for them every chance they get. I can go to any America hating Republican right now and get a justification for every single criminal activity that the party has participated in without any hesitation or consideration of the damage it does to our nation. They literally don't give a damn, they just want their radical hate ideology pushed forward and ultimate they dream of the day that the United States has been destroyed. Hate, fear, and greed is all they know. So when people like that turn on one of their own for being a "good" Republican it's a little baffling. I'm at a complete loss to explain this kind of behavior. There is no evidence that Republicans have suddenly had an awakening of conscious, these people don't have souls so that's not even a realistic suggestion. All I can figure is that the other guy was somehow more radical and extremist and that is the only reason that he won. It's hard to imagine a candidate more vile and evil than Reed, but that's the only explanation that works.

Some have expressed concerns that the CA-50 proves that there will be no repercussions for criminal behavior in the Republican party in red districts, because Republican are just that kind of people and no amount of criminality will bother them. I think that is ultimately a true statement. But in areas where the Republicans don't represent the majority, the lazy independents that have been believing the Republican lies for all these years appear to be awakening to the reality that the Republicans are really a lot worse than the Democrats have been claiming. That might help flip a couple of these elections. Personally, I think the problem in the CA-50 goes back to the Republican allies in the DLC who helped turn the governor's campaign negative. The Republicans and their DLC buddies have a great strategy for suppressing voter turnout by going ultra-negative and turning people against politics and then their America hating drones are the only ones that show up at the polls. Folks, voting against the guys that force a race negative is the only way to change things in this country. Buy a freaking TiVo and then get to the polling place to send them a message about how much they suck!
