I’ve always held that the “realignment” in favor of the GOP was {sadly} just a short counter-trend.

I think we can thank the anti-hispanic crowd for this one. Many Hispanics have more in common with republicans then dems. President Bush and Carl Rove knew this. It’s too bad our front men have been people like Tancredo Buchanan and others. It’s a shame we could not get a comprehensive immigration policy. I think this has a lot to do with the colors on the map. Where the hell are our politicians anyway? Hiding from the war and not speaking up loudly for our troops. The way they should be more like dems is to be spouting a party line instead of shrinking from dem attacks thinking this will save their sorry asses.
