It is racist to me.

 

Not really.

From the link above:

So they are the most powerful party, they are dominating the political debate, and are expected to be the dominant party in the new Parliament. So how is the thread title misleading?

 

I'll start to worry when I see them booting out the pink sheeps.

Most people don't start to talk about "dominating" at the 25% level.

 

Depends where you are.
Or what I'm sticking in you.

 

Often it seems that political trends cross national boundaries. For instance, in the eighties we had Reagan and Thatcher swept into office to enact sweeping changes. The nineties brought Clinton and Blair, both moderate leftists.

We've just had conservatives win in Germany and France. Now the Swiss seem poised to do the same. What does it mean? Perhaps the Democrats aren't in for the walk they expect in 08. Certainly concern over immigration seems to be sweeping the globe.

 

We shall see. I think, barring some third party entering the race, the Republicans will keep the presidency.

However, if some third party candidate such as Ron Paul were to run, it would split the conservative vote and give the presidency to Hilary.

Wouldn't that be nicely symetrical, since it was the third party candidacy of Ross Perot that put her husband in office.

And future generations would have the pleasure of learning the order of presidents....Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton. How many cycles can we go thru?

 

It is misleading but it is a quote from the biased leftist media. The party that put out the ad is the biggest party in Switzerland and not on the far right of the political spectrum there.

 

um how will the repubs win all their leading canidates have flaws that will prove to be major in the general election

 

Because they are running against that uber bitch Hillary Clinton. I'm not saying she'll definitely lose, but she might.

If the Dems had run someone half sensible like Evan Bayh the election would probably be in the bag already.

 

hillary is a strong candidate the repubs can't take her

 

Give me a break. Her negatives are already sky high. Given how unpopular republicans are right now the election should be a sure thing for the democrats. It isn't and this is with a bunch of opponents who are all seriously flawed in one way or another.

 

Hillary's percieved negatives have been the result of a Republican smear campaign. This just proves how scared the Republicans are and have always been of the Clintons' popularity.

 

if the republicans were worried about ron paul splitting their vote as an independant then why do they not put him up as the republican candidate. he is far more popular than giuliani and his isolationist and libertatian views will probably win him more than a few of the democrat votes.

 

Funny how quickly every thread on SciForums becomes about America.
