Terry McAuliffe told him to say this to get elected.
Until Reagan came along, so-called moderates had just about ruined the California Republican Party. Earl Warren, Goody Knight, Tommy Kuechel et al. And don't give me Nixon, "We're all Keynesians today." California Republicans didn't invent me-tooism, but they sure fell in line.

I am right here fighting. I left the Democrats because their defense of Clintonism made me sick to my stomach. I clearly remember the day that I went down to the Registrat of Voters to change my registration. I couldn't bear another moment of being associated with the evil I was witnessing. The non-trial of Clinton in the Senate was a fitting example of what the Democrats will defend. I will never forgive what they did.
My switch made possible the victory of Bush over RINO McCain. There is no way that I could have any part in allowing Gore to be President of the United States. That man is one of the biggest fools I have ever seen. I am proud of Tennessee that enough of them saw through him.
That the Democrat leadership is wrong I agree. The reason that the everyday Democrat voter doesn't KNOW is because the biased media doesn't tell them. The media tells them lies by commission, omission, and innuendo.
During the election my local rag published pictures of Gore and Bush on the front page. Gore was above the fold, standing full figure in front of the flag... Bush was below the fold, face only, with an unhappy expression, and his picture was only about two thirds as large. An equally large picture of a man smoking a cigarette through a hole in his throat was next to Bush's picture.
That was long after I had cancelled my subscription. On seeing this garbage, I called a friend and talked him into cancelling. The decline of newspaper readership is, at least in part, caused by their insidious, nation-destroying bias.
Not possible. A true democrat has his personal identity tied up in his party affiliation. That affiliation is higher than his love for country or the constitution. Hell, how could you love the constitution and belong to a party that advocates so much (more than the republicans in fact) unconstitutional garbage?
From my Northeast relatives now approaching retirement - when you really dig - you'll find the reason they are democrats. They believe democrats in control assures they can get back some of their tax money that they have paid all these years in the form of benefits now that they are approaching retirment. I can at least understand that logic.
However, I am a life-long Dem from a family of Dems, and I was persuaded. First, I was disillusioned w/ the 'environ.' movement. Then, it's a baby, not a blob, - it's child, not a mere 'choice'. Economics & taxes... 2nd Amd. The purpose & role of gov't. Nat. Def. & foreign affairs, & failed Dem administrations... etc...
True Dems, remember the important principles. The *regressive* 'dems', have forgotton, ignored, or rejected the important principles.
