It occurs to me there is a reason why the Democrats are considered the big tent. We acctually accept the will of our fellow voters. When we realize the will of the people is accurately recorded we bend with it. conservitive voters seem to be much more wedded to the idea of my candidate or no one else. They seem much more willing to do a scorched earth defense of their candidate.
What this is proving to me is what I have susecpted for some time now.
Conservatives are less drawn to democracy.
They seem to be Father oriented. They want the big daddy to lead them and to make the family feel safe. Conservatives want everything to stay the same and be predictable. They want a fantasy which does not exsist in real adult life. They want it all solved now so they never have to worry again.
The big tent means you get the family together and deside which is the most mutally benificial path for the entire family to take at the momment. The big tent means the needs are always changing and that the tent has to be ajusted periodically as the family grows and changes. Its the reality that nothing is ever truely done and over. Its the adult perspective of having to constantly THINK about what is the wisest next choice and desiding that by taking in the needs of the ENTIRE family. This includes the sullen teenager, the healthy young football player, the 10 year old with ADHD, the baby with asthma and not just considering the best interest of the Rich Uncle.
Americans are aching to be a family again. They want to come together. The conservatives always seek to split the family and pit them against each other. It always gets old after a period of time. Yes they will convience people after things are better that they need to consider the Rich Uncle the one who is most important because people can imagine being the Rich Uncle themselfs but after the real effects of the policy shift is seen they will seek the coming together of the family once again.
Its just sad that the family has to be split up every few years when those years could be the ones that really create a great family country.
Democracy means all the people. It seems the current Republican party faithful are now even saying to their own to take a hike because they are not republican enough. They truely seem to think that only those who think exactly like them are worthy to serve. Or is it they know that the cycle needs the Democrats to step in and fix it or the rich Uncle will just move to a more prosperous country?
