People who did not become Republicans until well after the era of Reagan? Was it GHWBush who convinced them to switch?
Or was the it Rats taking it on the chin in 1994 and then the embarrassment of the Party defending a rapist, sexual harasser, and perjurer who sold out technology to the ChiComs in exchange for illegal campaign donations?
The political “middle” has lurched Left even if the nation as a whole is ideologically to the right of the “new center” among politicians.
The cowardly Chicken Dees need to take BACK their own damn party from the Pelosis and Sheila Jackson Lees who embarrass them so.
Maybe because the "moderate" swing voter faction that both parties fight over has lurched left. The rest of the electorate is completely polarized - right vs. left.
