It still pisses me off that the Dem media reversed the color associations during the 2000 elections. republicans had always been true blue patriots, Dems were red, the traditional color of communists going back to the 1800s.

Those turds (Democrats) control everything don’t they?

The colors of the parties
The debates-where and who moderates
and most importantly... History’s narrative...

The Truth:
Republicans ended slavery
Republicans ended Jim Crow laws
Republicans passed the 19th amendment
Republicans pushed through Civil Rights

The Narrative:
Democrats care about blacks and women

We must end their control on all the public institutions or separate as a country.

Yup. Long overdue for our side to stop calling ourselves Communists. We look really stupid doing it. I have refused to use those Orwellian newspeak colors since day #1. It’s offensive and just plain wrong.

I just think of Red being the color of the blood of Jesus covering us all.

The color map flipped in 1984.

I remember one commentator (I think Peter Jennings) saying the networks chose the changed map because it sounded closer in pronunciation, Reagan -- Red. He said it would be easier to associate that way.
