Anyway, the most interesting thing for me in the article is the demographics. That FOX is the news base for right-wing geezers. It all makes sense in light of the fact that the GOP has lost 5 of the last 6 presidential popular votes. The demographics of the electorate has shifted. There are more and more younger voters who aren't buying the GOP's theocratic bullshit. There are still plenty of backwater cabbageville US House districts where the majority are FOX NEWS addicts. There are still backwater cabbageville states that will continue to elect Rubio's and Cruz's to the US Senate. But when it's an election where it's the whole country, the new demographics are showing up, pretty much every time. As long as the GOP continues to pander to moronic teabag populists, and as long as their platform is hostile to workers, women, minorities, gays/lesbians, the financially disadvantaged, and anybody who is sick to their stomach over our sick democratized gun carnage culture ...the GOP is likely to be fucked in competition for the Oval Office.
Right wingers can scream and holler all they like about Benghazi and about all of Obama's "illegal activities."
It ain't gonna matter a shit in Dick Cheney's hat when people go into the voting booth in 2016 and are standing there thinking about which candidate from which party is gonna be more likely to represent what they want this country to be all about.
