Hey - your republican party is changing before your very eyes. We are watching the devolution of the republican party as we have known it. The RNC will get no more money from me - because they have allowed the real conservatives to get squelched, second guessed and demonized as being ‘mean’ and ‘out of step.’ The Kennedy’s, Reid’s, Pelosi’s and yes, Clintons are so happy tonight. Bigger government - and more conversations with our enemies - here we come.

“Hey - your republican party is changing before your very eyes. We are watching the devolution of the republican party as we have known it.”

This has been true for a long time... But this Huckabee/Giuliani/Romney/McCain thing is exposing rifts in the party that have been glossed over. Values voters who WANT big government to enforce their values. Small government conservatives who think government shouldn’t be involved. Economic conservatives who don’t care much about social values. Security voters who care only about keeping or borders safe and will vote for a liberal to do it. In truth, there is very little presently uniting the Republican party other than dislike of Democrats.

In the past, the candidates haven’t been so diverse. Now, the differences are highlighted. And they’re pressing right on the stress points.
