so where did you run to may I ask? There comes a time when there are really no choices and that is where the Republicans found themselves this time around. Obama was re-elected, he held the cards..like it or not and many of us don't.

They may never learn, and under one-party, DemocRAT rule, there is no hope for the USA.
Actually, your vitriol is what has turned off moderate Republicans and is why Republicans are losing national elections -- they fail to appeal to moderates.

In a prior era, Democrats and Republicans agreed on basic values and could cooperate across party lines. Today's GOP has as its fundamental goal of rolling back the New Deal and the Great Society. It's difficult to imagine that today's extreme right-wing GOP base is the same Party that elected Eisenhower, who said:

Quote:
"Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment insurance, and eliminate labor laws and farm programs, you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group, of course, that believes that you can do these things. Among them are a few Texas oil millionaires, and an occasional politician or businessman from other areas. Their number is negligible and they are stupid."

President Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1952
Now, what Ike called "negligible and stupid" is the GOP base and will, as he said, disappear from political history.

Default Party changes

The current Republican Party has very little connection with President Eisenhower’s GOP.

BYW RR- What is "familites".

The family consisted of elderly grandparents, parents, my wife and I (college students and ‘Nam River Rat) and the wife and son of a helicopter pilot serving his second tour in 'Nam. It worked quite well.
