[QUOTE="donner, post: 1555703, member: 277"] are you referring to the economics department page at George Mason University that Blinocac200sx posted? If the authorship has to be hidden, or attributed to someone else, doesn't that raise some red flags about the 'facts' within the article? Two things jumped out at me about this article. First, aside from the lack of logic and reason within the article, the basic premise is that republicans can't win because everyone who votes for Obama will do so blindly and as a block. That isn't how democracies work and presents an argument that is too cut and dry to be real. If Rubio or Cain, or even Palin are in the race, that will change the election math. Rubio may not swing the entire hispanic population to the GOP, but to say all hispanics would vote for Obama and against a hispanic candidate is ridiculous. Second, if this article does 'teach' us anything it's that clearly the republicans need to find an actual candidate who could appeal to those groups. [/QUOTE]
