Why else would I go out of my way to push your buttons via honest statement of my beliefs? But no, I wasn't seeking an argument.I didn't say that the Republican party shouldn't split. Read the post again.And actually, they don't represent a majority of the party. They represent a faction of the party plus a preponderance of voters that weren't a part of the party due to open primaries in states.

Keith,If I didn't know better, I would think you wanted an argument.You should have stopped while you were ahead, your original post was so elegant.But I have to agree on the ways the Democratic party should split.I disagree that the Republican party should not split.This labeling, a democrat, of anyone that does not fit your view of what the party should stand for, is a sign that the party is

Oh, forgot some things in my previous description...Republicans should be the party of energy independence. This means using government funding and close intimate working with the scientific community to pull out all the stops on the road to being able to run our economy without spending our time huddling in a corner, terrified that oil will increase in price. This means more efficient cars. This

Well, if we can turn that 1% into an argument, we'd better get to it. Time's a-wastin', Eileen! :P I suggest investigation into what sort of things the government should regulate to protect the people and give us cookies, kisses, and a Band-Aid whenever we get a paper cut. Mmm... cookies...wait, what was I talking about again?I think you're right about having the courage to split into minor

wow Keith, that is really good.I bet even if I agree with you 99% we can figure out how to turn the other 1% into an argument.We agree in concept, but not on the details of implementation (such as what exactly the government should regulate to protect people from the actions of other people.)Scottie, When the Republican leadership, disagrees with Rush, who are you most likely to agree with?Maybe

We should build a Republican Party on the shoulders of giants. Genuine freedom of speech which means no more "hate crime" laws, no more campus speech codes, no more McCain-Feingold style legislation giving the media carte blanch to potificate up to and during an election while the rest of us have to shut up during the last bit.Genuine freedom of religion in which the 1st Amendment is viewed as a

Victoria: Besides McCains "global Warming" speech, in which he is cozying up to AlGoreand his nonsense perhaps trying to share in Gore's raking in of seemingly endless amounts of cash, you neglected to mention McCain's stomach-turning fawning over Teddy the Useless.
