[Constitutional Patriot]

“All the mail from RNC has been going in the trash here for over two years. They don’t get it - don’t understand that the Republican Party has become too liberal.”

Same here (and EXACTLY). If i want to vote for an irresponsible, out of control spendthrift government that aims to dismantle the constitution for its own political benefit, I’ll just vote for the Democrat party.

These Republicans who think that they can win by mirroring the big gov dems are defeating themselves on a few levels: they are alienating their base which will stay home or vote 3rd party (either tends to favor the dems), and the mindless sector of the electorate who lives off govt largess will never vote for a Republican, so they are hosed on that from too.

As I asked on another thread, who is advising the Republicans on these issues? If I didn't know any better I would guess it was James Carville.

Hey, good post - Thank you for writing the Democrat party, and not the Democratic party.

As far as J. Carville ...

stick to making ice cream, guy

I expect that most members of the base will end up voting for the Republican regardless, but...

Voting for the Republican is a very small fraction of what the base normally does. How many members of the base will feel motivated to donate time and treasure toward getting a Giuliani elected?
