30. I've been giving this a lot of thought.
The Dems have become the Republicans, or at least in terms of their legislative goals/policies.

What we have been on the receiving end of is way beyond triangulation.

It takes some good (skillful) Dems to pass Republican policies and do it even without their help and support. That part I don't get. Since the Dems are essentially passing conservative position papers anyway, why AREN'T the Republicans on board? Because the policies are horrible on their face? It seems like a plot to have the Dems pass Republican policies as poison pills for their own Party.

There is some rumbling of some BS Centrist Party arising with the likes of all the DLCer's and the remaining non insane Republicans.

Who can explain this madness?
