How crime became a winning issue for RepublicansRepublicans have championed "law and order" for decades, but a spike in violent crime and stumbles from Democrats may be making the message more potent this election cycle.
Real picture of crime far more complicated »
Has a focus on crime helped the GOP seal a midterms victory?

Repubs don't have anything to run on so they just accuse every Dem of being soft on crime and hope enough yokels buy it.

Like the cost of living?
Inflation?
the price of gas and energy?
the lack of border security and immigration control?
crime rates?
the failures of public education?
but instead regular people are supposed to focus only on what the woke crowd prefers to pay attention to? Abortion, LGBTQ, Marijuana, Race, Voting?

What pray tell has the right done to address any of that?
And voting is a pretty big deal when you consider what the GOP is plotting these days.

Actual conservatives preach the importance of self-reliance and preparation. As opposed to always looking out to the Govt for bailouts. (at other peoples' expense)
IF you're against it for banks and automakers.........WHY aren't you against it for millions of other people? and student loans? They're all irresponsible.

There’s no way to answer that without dredging up the same argument where you pretend the victims of a corrupt system are the problem. |

He’s an eager small government conservative, and you know what they say. When you’re a hammer, you see every problem as a nail. |

Those places joe brought into the discussion HAVE medical and mental care.........doesn't change the fact they still have many of the same issues.
So now we're discussing whether or not something is a waste of time and money.
