Obama's "New Deal." A must read!

[Cattledog]

“Personally, I think the depth of the Obama realignment is being underestimated,” says the Republican media savant Stuart Stevens, who helped elect Bush twice. “They have basically invented their own party that is compatible with the Democratic Party but is bigger than the Democratic Party. Their e-mail list is more powerful than the DNC or RNC. In essence, Obama will be elected as an Independent with Democratic backing—like Bernie Sanders on steroids.”

The Republicans,” says the think-tank guy, “may very well be politically and intellectually decimated for ten years after this.”
