What about a 'new' Republican party?
Since the GOP got in bed with the Tea/Fox/Jesus freaks this party has gone into free fall. The former party of Eisenhower, Nixon and Ford is now the party of the John Birch Society, Linden LaRoche, a flock of TV preachers, flat earthers, the science ignorant, trans national corporations, war heads, crazy persons and political lunatics. No kiddin'! Why not let those guys have their own party and just start a real Republican party? I still like Ike. Nixon, before he went all nuts was fairly progressive and who didn't like Jerry Ford? None of those guys though it required a far right government to insure liberty and justice for all and a degree of prosperity for the 95% of us who work for wages. The democrats are now about where the Eisenhower republicans used to be, so I'm sticking with them, but it would be nice to have some competition from a serious political party.

The Tea Party IS the "new" Republican party.

You make one mans opinion seems like a hot button issue for everyone. Fact is Nixon was a slug and Ford was nothing more than a fill in President, Ike was like a king taking credit for ending WWII. If you don't think Nixon was far right, you must have missed his insistence that wages be frozen for every worker in the United State to cure his recession. Outside of right and left history buffs the only good thing Nixon did was normalize relations with China, but alas we've since managed to screw that up!

Republicans are forming new parties.
Democrats will either reform party or join new ones.
To this day, says Simpson, the U.S. intelligence agencies hide the scope of their post-World War II collaboration with Nazi criminals.
  Are Republicans like George H. W. Bush, Oliver North, and Jesse Helms, aware they have been assisted by Nazi collaborators? Bush once worked for the CIA and should have known about the nature of the Nazis in his '88 campaign. No doubt he knows the history of Nazi/CIA collaboration.
Whether or not Bush knew of the fascists' involvement in his campaign, the Republican Party should have done a far better screening job. One thing is certain: The intelligence agencies know the scope and extent of Nazi involvement with the political Right in this country. It is a shame they keep it hidden from the majority of the American people.

What we need is a new democratic party that can get things done. Even controlling both houses of congress and the presidency they could not pass a budget. Harry Reid is using the media by creating crisis. The public should demand the senate pass the houses version of the tax cut and not be foolled by the games Reid and Obama are playing.
