We actually need a functional opposition party, and that won't happen til they begin to purge the crazy out of their system. why do we need a functional opposition to the right of the democrats?

Secular Regressive posted:Not every republican has realized they need to moderate their platform to stay relevant yet Well, most of the republicans in areas where moderating their message would help are currently out of power. A lot of republicans currently in office are from pretty conservative places. Hopefully this leads to the party getting further to the right and going into a death spiral. This is already what a significant proportion of the grassroots is calling for. Strawman fucked around with this message at 13:51 on Mar 8, 2009 |
