You hope that those who believe in limited government leave the GOP? No wonder we had that federal bloating over the past 6 years with the GOP in charge of all three Houses. No wonder I'm not eager to support the current GOP. No wonder they got their asses handed to them in November.

By the way, if you ask the average Dem voter (no the wing-nut "true believers"), most of them agree with the statement that "government is too large and intrusive". There is HUGE opportunity here for either party to make significant long-term gains if they make the right promises... and KEEP them... and judging by the number of Dem running right-leaning campaigns, they just might take advantage and relegate the Stupid Party to minority status for another two generations.

"You hope that those who believe in limited government leave the GOP?"

I hope that those who continue to support socially liberal agendas leave. If you are pro abortion or pro gay marriage than I hope you find a nice party. I won't compromise in that area.
