The Reagan Revolution is Dead
Been a Republican for 50 years and never saw anything like this. The party took an historical beating last night. Thesenate isour only hope; the Democrats did not get their 60 seats.
It is time for new blood to lead the Republican party. We need to insist that the old fossils who have run the party for years to step aside. We need fresh ideas and a new direction. The "family values" theme is not going to play out any more.
For years i have called and written to our Republican representatives to no avail. The OK Republican delegation did not care abouttheir constituents. They cared aboutwhat Trent Lott, Tom DeLay, Hastert and Bush wanted.
The troops will be coming home from Iraq next year and it is time for the US to re-build our small military. The war in Afghanistan will continue with a buildup of US troops; as it should.
It is about to get interesting.
