What I remember is the hope I had when the Republicans came into power in 94. Bitter memory now.
Abolutely, and they did not accomplish that sweep by moving to the middle. They knew what win, they used it and won. Moves began almost immediately to undo that particular strategy, many of them by Republicans. 2006 was the culmination of that assault on conservative values.
We may end up yearning for the good ole days when the GOP was in charge.
