Historically, the Republicans were the more liberal party up through the new deal,

Yeah, Wilson was more conservative than Taft and so was GD WJ Bryan, right?

WRONG.

The democrats have been controlled by socialists on the national level since 1896, long before the New Deal, and prior to being socialists they were largely agrarian proto-socialist, slavery-apologist losers, the US would have remained a backwater if 19th Century Dems had their way. The Federalist/Whig/GOP has always been the better party.

No. Taft was also more consrvative than Theodore Roosevelt. The wing represented by Roosevelt seems to memoredominant than the one represented by Taft.
