Kewl. The Rat party self destruction continues. Look for more shrillness as they fail to understand that more and more Americans are beginning to understand...

Another Gallup poll also released today showed that, contrary to many press reports, “values” ranked well behind the war in Iraq, terrorism and the economy as a prime concern of Americans.

Ssssssshhh!! We want them to keep up their religious purge.

Don't tell the folks over at Du that, they still believe Kerry won...

Like a Pendulum, we swing from one side to the other. We spent too much time on the left during the late 60's and 70's, then went Right during Reagan's reign, then to left again, and now right.

"In Gallup's latest poll this month, those identifying themselves as Republicans jumped to 37% of the public, with Democrats now clearly trailing with 32%. "

Has this poll been corrected for party identification?

Ya think? :-p

Actually, I don't think this trend is necessarily guaranteed, long term.

I also am pretty sure that "Republican", as a descriptive term, has an increasingly tenuous connection conservative ideals.

[Mister Baredog]

Gallup noted today: “Post-election shifts in partisanship after presidential elections or midterm congressional elections are not routine, but are also not uncommon.”

IOW it's not usual but not unusual, Hmmm, very sKerry.

A little something for everyone, how nice.

How about 3 elections in a row, just wondering?

Gee thanks, Gallup Poll, for clearing that up... how would I know what to think without you?? /sarcasm

[Beemnseven]

Big deal. When will people realize that political parties serve no other purpose other than getting people elected and that they do not stand for any particular philosophy?

What we should be looking for is news that more people recognize themselves to be conservatives or libertarians. 70% of the American people believe that government is responsible for providing prescription drugs. Many more have no interest in taking 14% of their paychecks and investing it in a retirement plan privately. Until this mentality changes amongst the general public, it doesn't really matter that more people identify themselves with an "R" after their name.

Republican is tilting socialist. Therefore, the country continues on its march toward socialism, if only a bit slower than it does when tilting Democrap.

[Jeff Blogworthy]

Would that it were true. It seems to me that the country has been tilting more and more towards Federalism and away from individual autonomy and community rule since its inception. The Judiciary is practically running the country by fiat and the Constitution has been dumbed down to irrelevancy. I am not confident we are winning at all.

Meanwhile, half of today's Republicans don't believe in the concept of limited government.

[Digger]

The country is republican including both house of Congress & a president & NO conservative Supreme Court when GW leaves. This will tell ya have you have been snookered by these pols who owe their allegiances to the elites.

[slowhand520]

I think we are just sick of progressive values. The homosexual and feminist agenda has gotten way out of hand. The feminization of man has become their number one agenda. We went from John Wayne, Magnum PI tv types to "Ross" from friends, Chandler and Will (will and Grace). If we question anything we are labeled homophobes. Luckily the counrty has spoken. Hence the tilt to the right

[Recovering_Democrat]

GOOD.

After 30 plus years of Roe v Wade we have the evidence: demoncRATs have aborted themselves in to a shrinking minority party.

As Morpheus says in The Matrix: "Fate, it would seem, is not without a sense of irony."

In any case, I hope Democrats embrace this 'value' issue. Whether voters care or not, at least we have opposition who agree in basic tenet of the society. And by doing that, hopefully, the atheists, ultra-leftists, etc., will get upset with the Democratic party so they switch to Green, etc.
