GOP Not Fighting Back!

One thing that bothers me no end is that the Republicans are "just taking it." They're not "fighting back" against the lies and slurs the Democrats are telling about them, which tends to make people who don't pay attention to politics believe them all the more. How they ever expect to become the "dominant party" without fighting for it is beyond me. I'm not a big McCain fan, but even if he IS a socialist, like both Democrats, maybe we can hope he won't move us toward socialism as quickly as will either of the Democrats. (Just common sense)
