I hope he is right -- and most of the time I think he is. We will see.

Sorry about the double-post. It's late.

The AJC wakes up to 2002... we already have a GOP majority at all levels. But yes, it is growing, and will continue to as long as the Democrat party continues to fail to present a viable alternative.

"The country is more conservative and grows more so daily."

So why is the GOP moving left?

The Atlanta Journal ran this story?
Amazing.
Someone down there must be smoking crack (again).

The media is scared. They know the end of liberalism as we know it is guaranteed if Dean gets the nomination.

Looks like a fight coming up between Gore and the lady beast for the '08 democratic nomination.

"...Goldwater's ideas were right on target with millions of Americans, but he was shot down by his own misstatements and by liberals in his own party who thought imitating Democrats was the way to victory..."

As though LBJ's absolute LIES about the (alledged)

I am so old I recall that the GOP was a conservative party.

It is not enough to simply become the majority party. There are still too many gorezones. Palm Beach comes to mind.

The Democrat Party must become irrelevant on the political landscape. A closed chapter next to other extinct parties. Gone like the whigs and the bull moose party. Gone from the face of the earth as the USSR is gone and despised.

The next DNC HQ should be a spider hole or a phone booth. (do phone booths even exist anymore?)

It's still conservative. You want perfection.

Dean is no more Extreme than that Duo of Bill & HIllary c0-chaired by Terry McAuffee. The only difference is that Dean is the ONLY Democrat stating to remove the CLINTON CANCER from the Democrat Party. Both of these Power Brokers are liberal and socialist and play the race card and rich vs. poor class warfare.

After all they have proved they can spend money just as fast as the rats.

I really think it is unwise for us to telegraph our desire to face Dean. I favor a passive tact in the Dem primary. And then once the Dems come up with their nominee, we should whack the Hell out of whomever it is.

I think Dean could be more challenging than many of us imagine.

Dean has stated again and again that his first objective is to take over the Democratic Party and return it to its roots. In doing so, he will part ways from Democrats such as Bill Clinton and Lieberman, who felt that Democrats need to veer to the center in elections and then govern from the left.

I want to thank Mr. Johnson for confirming that 'centrist' democrats lie in order to get elected so that they can govern as leftists. Given this, Mr. Johnson should acknowledge that the only difference between Clinton and Dean is that Dean has been forthright before the election to tell everyone exactly how he intends to govern.
