2016 Prez Election Is Only Half The Equation

2016 Prez Election Is Only Half The Equation

I'm gonna take this moment to raise what I believe is as big a concern, if not an even bgiger one, than who will be the next potus.  Whichever egomaniac gets to the WH is, imo, only half the equation as far as the direction of our nation, our very Constitution, is concerned.  The other half of the equation lies in the make up of the next Congress. After all, they will be appointing the next batch of SCOTUS jurists. 

The "right" leaning voters are very divided. We saw the beginnings of those divisions during the 2012 cycle. Where the hard core Ron Paul fanatics alienating themselves from EVERYBODY that was not on board  w/ RP. They ridiculed, insulted and even threatened the so called "traitors". As a sign of protest, the majority of them either wrote in "their" candidate or simply stayed home.  Then there were the "evangelicals" which also decided to stay home - because they REFUSED to vote for a "Mormon" (Politics over Christian virtue. Stupid hypocrits!). All that during the 2012 cycle.  Finally, just a year before the 2014 midterms, the DIEHARD gop-moderates (socially liberal big govt progressives) started locking horns w/ the Constitutional Conservatives - because these were scrutinizing and criticizing the GOP "giants" like Cantor, Boehner, McConnell, Jeb and the like, as hard as they had the Ds. 

Today the divisions and viciousness is on STEROIDS!  imo, there are three key groups voting GOP:

1. The "moderates". These are the "KEEP the SocSec / Medicare" status quo, and "bring the jobs" and they are happy. 

2. The HARD CORE Trumpbots. These, like the 2008 Obama fanatics, and even today's Hilla-bots, would blindly follow their leader-and-savior through the gates of hell - because it's THEIR turn! VENGEANCE is "theirs". The ends justify the means. 

3. The endangered and toxic species known as the Constitutional Conservatives.  These are sadly unlike the "UNdecided" millennials, which are coveted by ALL the other sides - including the left. The "#3s" are like the Nation of Israel in the middle of extremely vicious and lethal surroundings. 

So, in this politically radioactive environment - WILL the "right" leaning voters keep the Congress from falling in the hands of such a radically left Demcrat control.  The strong feelings of vindictiveness and revenge is strong.  Will the "#2s" even vote for a "#3" candidate - even though they  haven't kissed the Trump's rayal ring?  Or will they take the Paulbot route - not to vote for those candidates at all? Revenge, remember? Lets not forget that the number of the hard core Trump base make the Paulbots look miniscule in compariso

n. Imo, to NOT vote for GOP candidates in both houses is exactly like voting for even MORE Obama / Hillary policies as well!  Just saying - ITW ORKS BOTH WAYS!
