"It is worrisome that Rats are now being driven by the DUmmies and Hollywierdos. Not only is much of their hysterical political belief logically ungrounded and without any philosophical merit, much of America strongly disagrees with it. Yelling and getting 'outraged' is not a political platform."

This underscores my contention. Our 2 party system has worked, for the most part well, for 150+ years. If the Democrats are so close to marginalizing themselves then why would the Republicans want to do the same to themselves? It makes no sense.

I would prefer seeing the Democrats splinter and become marginalized completely, if that has to be, than the same happen to the Republicans; whether in tandem with the Democrats or alone. It's time to take hold of our strengths, reconstitute what the Republican Party used to be, and go forward with a clear agenda. THAT's success through strength! It is NOT sane to allow our differences destroy us.

I agree with the gist of what you have been saying. We are in a war with the liberals and until our side understands this fully, we will continue to become fractured and less effective. We must fight the liberals as a coalition as if our lives depended on it in the same way the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. joined forces to fight Hitler.

It is NOT sane to allow our differences destroy us.

I don't see that happening.

But what commonality is there between an Iowa farmer, a San Francisco gay rights promoter, a Chicago union member, and an Atlanta race-baiting welfare gigilo (Hi Julian)?

How can an alliance such as the above *not* fracture internally?
