32. I'd like to think that the Republicans' days were numbered
I was hopeful that they were over post-2008 but then the Tea Party came along and gave it a shot in the arm in time for 2010 and we are now reaping their bitter crop. I can't imagine the lunacy can go on in perpetuity but I don't know when it's going to be over either. There are still too many people out there brainwashed by hate radio and fundamentalism to hate Democrats, fear progress, and vote Republican even when it's against their own interests for me to feel safe and secure. :shrug:
