We must destroy the Republican Party to save it.
Advertisements [?]
Interesting story in yesterdays USA Today. Headline was

"History lesson: GOP must stop Bush ; Will Republicans continue to defend their president with ideological and partisan reflex, or remember the example of principled predecessors?"

Basically talked about how a few decent Republicans broke with their party to vote for Nixon's impeachment and also the majority report in the Iran-Contra hearings. Gist of the story was that some principled repukes need to step up to the plate and quit blindly following *.

It is my hope that * will suffer such a devastating defeat, that the Senate and the House will once again be in Dems control.

Is it wishful thinking on my part, or is it possible that Kerry could win in a landslide that would leave the Repuke party a smoldering pile of junk?

In my fantasy scenario, not only would we win back the House, Senate and Presidency, but then folks like McCain, Snowe, Collins, Chaffe and Spectre would finally see the light and switch sides. Tom Delay would be run out of town on a rail, and never again would a Bush ever darken the door of the White House!

The Republican Party has been hi-jacked by neo-con and fundy raptured Christians. I want their defeat this November to be so complete and so devastating that it would bury the neo-cons forever.
