Finally...somebody else who thinks that Ronald Reagan was responsible for the destruction of the Republican party! I am still in shock that those who blindly support him haven't ACTUALLY dug him up and put him on the ballot! I laughed when that wrinkled old prune Nancy "directed" people at her beauty shop to the "what would Ronnie do" website! "Ronnie" has already done what so many of us waited for many years for him to do...R.I.P., Ronnie.

Great post, Kevk.

The new Republican party has not arrived. The real facts are that the liberal media has grown so big and slanted politics so badly that they have effectively put a liberal as a front runner in a party he doesn't belong in.

The fact that most of the people who support McCain on this board are liberals is very telling. They are all VERY happy their liberal media has pushed a liberal candidate in a party he doesn't belong.

Why wouldn't they be happy? 2008 will be the first time ever that 2 democrats ran against each other in the general election.

New Rule: When you give unwarranted negative reps, please sign your name to them. Be proud of your childishness. When somebody disagrees with you or doesn't worship Ronald Reagan, that does not equate to "Hate speech".

Contrary to what you may personally believe, Ronald Reagan, in fact, did a lot of terrible things to this country, the middle class, the working class, Gays, just to name a few...
Thank you!

In my opinion, the Republican Party was permanently soiled when it graciously received pro-segregation and anti-Civil Rights Dixiecrats who had no stomach for such laws as the Voting Rights Act.

And when Ronald Reagan launched his presidential campaign in Philadephia, Mississippi, where the historically notorious murder of 3 civil rights workers occured just 12 years prior--and where Reagan repeated the antebellum battle cry of "States Rights"--that pretty much sealed the deal.

And this people is what is wrong with politics. People whine and complain that politics are too partisan, yet when you view the peoples view of the world, they will choose the most extreme examples from each party.

Congrats for perpetuating the very thing I hear most complain about. I think it is more about whining than winning.
Are you complaining about people whining, or whining about people complaining?

Seriously, though, I know what you are saying, just couldn't help myself.
