"""If the Republicans welcome these folks as you say, then there will be a mass change of voter registration, and Republicans will start winning all the elections. I'm not holding my breath.""""

Ok...and....

If Republicans do not "welcome these folks" as you imply, then the burden of proof rests with you.. When have Republicans EVER rejected these people?

Was it a republican who stood on the steps of an Alabama school and shouted : "segregation yesterday, segregation now, segregation fo eva!"

I think the real issue here is can YOU prove that the democratic party "welcomes these people"...

I love how no one wants to touch the (D) Robert Byrd/Klan Kleagle issue..

I'm outa here guys...
