TFLS said...: I saw that graph too. Frankly - I surprised anyone with two brain cells to rub together hasn't abandoned the Republican Party completely. I was in High School for the Watergate debacle. When they asked me which Party when I registered to vote - I said "What? Are you kidding?" Same thing now. Who is gonna support the Republicans? The white sheet crowd - and precious little else.; 12:58 AM, March 29, 2007
SB Gypsy said...: Yeah, I hear ya, except that two of my brothers are dyed in the wool republicans, are watching Faux News and spinning like tops right now.

They willfully believe any scrap of justification for the admin's illegal and corrupt actions, no matter how specious. They continue to deride and villify anyone to the left of hootersville. When I point out that I am probably even lefter than that, they say it's all teasing and Can't ya take a joke? They are part and parcel of the military industrial complex.

They won't switch, because switching will require them to admit they were hoodwinked, and they won't do that. As long as Faux spreads the manure, they snuffle and oink and repeat it ad nauseum.

Makes me mad, in a kinda british way.; 7:52 AM, March 29, 2007
