"pundits and pollsters have been obsessed with the notion that the nation is becoming increasingly split along party lines."

Yes, but the pundits are wrong. They are saying things like that to get traditional democrats back into the fold. For example, I voted for Gore, and I keep hearing from the news media that Gore voters are more solidly democrat now. But I am absolutely furious with the democratic party and am voting for Bush, and same with some of my freinds who were Gore voters. The reason the country is more evenly split now in terms of registration is because there are MORE REPUBLICANS and LESS DEMOCRATS. There has not been a solidifying of views, just an even-ing out of party registration.

I'm a lifelong Republican voter who has come to realize that we face extinction as a nation state from both parties.
The demonrat's agenda to go, hat in hand, to the U.N. and the international community for permission to blow our noses, and the Republican's agenda to lose the Constitution in favor of melting the USofA into a Free Trade no borders, no sovereignty entity of a trade zone under International Law.

The movers and shakers in both parties are the ones that are extreme, and both a tremendous threat to our survival as a sovereign nation known as a Constitutional Republic.

How could anyone with even half a real brain ever vote for someone like Gore?

It's really puzzling to me, how anyone could have analyzed the 90s and come to the conclusion that the Clinton\Gore agenda was good for America, when they almost destroyed us.

I'm glad you and some of the Gore voters are seeing the light, but what the heck took you so long?
