Americans learn only from catastrophe and not from experience. -- Theodore Roosevelt
My life has become a single, ongoing revelation that I haven’t been cynical enough.

I've also read some conservative opinions that you can appeal to latinos because the immigrant experience relates to the entrepreneurial experience. Ie: leaving your home and everyone you know, go to a place with a new language and start over in search of a better life, compares to starting your own business.
What a f**k insulting concept.

Abortion (as of yet) doesn't decide an election. Most people have an opinion about the issue but don't prioritize it if a war or the economy take center-stage. The pro-choice position has recently seen a revival, but historically opinions have altered back and forth so it's impossible to say.
Gay marriage is a losing issue for Republicans. They need to stop kissing far-right Christians' arse, but they won't for a few more years.
Same for their anti-science crap.
Republicans have also sucked recently at branding their economic policies as beneficial for the poor and lower middle class.
