    That's awesome. I guess it's about time they got out of their old ways and started listening to the people on the left side of the fence. Either way, the liberals are winning the war. We may have lost a few battles here and there, but we are gaining the high ground and will continue to do so.

    That is one of the most blatantly left biased articles i've read all week. I'm curious what that author will write about when the democratic congress that has boasted the worst public approval ratings in recent history gets voted out.

    I read the article. It's nothing new.

    We are not going to compromise our principles and beliefs to capture the middle ground. McCain proved that this is not a winning strategy.

    We have to do a better job of PR and convincing the electorate that our way is the only logical way forward. I think Obama is going to self-destruct and that will cause many Obama voters to question their choice.

    Yeah, this is what they said in the 1970's as well. To me it shows how scared the Democrats really are of conservatives. They did the same thing in the 1970's. Sure enough, they lost in two major landslides in the 1980's.

    Democrats, sore winners. It shows alot of their mindset too. Just look at the media. Almost every day it's "Who's the Republican leader? Who's going to be their candidate? Who? Who?".

    Paranoid.

    Center is Just too liberal for me. And, as turns out millions of others.

    The favorite headline right now is how the republicans are disintegrating. Has it occurred to anyone yet the Conservative are going to come back leaner and meaner? Has it occurred to the Democrats yet that many conservative want NOTHING to do with the republican party?

    Conservatives like me see that the Center just keeps getting pushed farther and farther right.

    Both parties can learn a lot from the Libertarian Party.

  • My thoughts are, it is a stupid article. There are plenty of far left Dems in Washington, what do you not get about that fact?

  • 1 decade ago

    Just another article by a liberal written to the republican party.

    However, i don't totally disagree.

    Shh.. I switched to the Libertarian Party.
