Yes, it’s been discussed endlessly. Election Night 2000 was the date of the Orwellian newspeak switcheroo in a deliberate attempt to disassociate the Communist-Fascist Democrat Party from its true and historic associations of being “Red.” I and others refuse to abide or use this erroneous, false and offensive relabeling. Red will never be anything other than the color of leftist totalitarianism.
