CNN and the alphabet networks changed the colors of the American political parties back in 96.

American political parties have never really been associated with colors as in other countries(conservatives blue in Canada and the UK, Liberals red in Canada, Labour red in the UK etc.etc).

American political parties have been associated with animals, Pubbies the elephant, democrats the donkey.

Republicans SHOULD be blue.

Democrats are socialists. Communists are socialists' cousins. Communists are red.

China is red. The Soviet Union was red. Red is the color of the left. Even now - the flags of communist Vietnam and China are red.

I think Republicans should make a point of self-defining Republicans as blue. Just take it back.

Never mind the liberal networks - all that's needed to change things, is for Fox News to agree to the deal.

TAKE BACK THE BLUE.
