DEAN WILL KILL THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY---NOT

Nobody votes like a freeloader who has been robbed by his benefactor; just count the numbers. Freeloaders want taxes raised because they get the money.

Barry Goldwater led the Republicans to one of the worst defeats ever back in 1964. But what Goldwater meant to the guts of the party grew. And grew. And grew. So that sixteen years later the Conservative Reagan won in a landslide. That small "Conservative Base" became huge. Goldwater is still the "soul" of the GOP.

The same possibility exists for the Democratic Left, which starts from a much larger base than the Conservatives had when they began their expansion in 1964.

The huge entitlement class, numbering every government employee, Federal, State, County, and City (fourteen million VOTERS); the Welfare Class, two million who may vote; the Social Security Class, which is six million VOTERS and rising led by the rapacious AARP (American Association of Rapacious Pricks) ravenously ripping off their own kids; the totally subsidized farm and agri-business vote of at least two million; and the wealthy guilt ridden sympathizers of this class (Hollywood Left demanding subsidies for the "arts") are not only a presence today, but growing. This class views every expenditure not directed for them as stolen from them. Military is support for (fill in the blanks, oil companies, dictators, big business, etc.); trade is subsidy for hated business interests; lower taxes is a subsidy for the rich, higher taxes is income meant for, and destined by entitlement to, the freeloader class. There are conflicts within this class; city people hate the farm people and vice versa; race conflicts within this class are huge; so the class is not a monolith.

But get this: The Freeloader Class wants taxes raised because they get the money. Dean and the rest will raise taxes and by implication will give the money to this Freeloader Class.

Nobody votes like a free loader deprived. The total of twenty million or more VOTERS in the Entitlement Class is 20% of the total votes cast in 2000. Since the country is roughly 50/50, you can figure the entitlement class is 40% of the Democratic vote. Can Dean win? You figure it out. Only the cops, military, fire, and perhaps a few other segments assigned to the defense of the country will vote GOP.

A Conservative will find it increasingly harder and harder to win as the entitlement class grows. Dean may lose, but he emphatically won't "wreck" The Party. "Anti-War" simply means that the money spent on the war was money stolen from the Freeloader Class and only from them.

The Freeload Class is the Uber Voter. Dean will NOT wreck the party.
