Once again, Mark has hit the nail on the head. I'm a life long Democrat. For me, joining the Republican party (the party of Ronald Reagan) is unthinkable. Unfortunately the Democratic Party has totally dropped the ball. Nominating a hopeless loser like John Kerry for President was egregious incompetence. They had the MSM televising the crypto-traitor Michael Moore sitting next to Jimmy Carter (the Party's moral beacon) at the Democratic convention. Come on guys!, is this the best you can do? With John Kerry as the alternative, voting for Bush was a slam dunk decision. Now the Democratic Party is going into thermal runaway with conspiracy theories and similar nonsense. They are losing it!

Here's a clue: Look at what the British Labour Party did after getting repeatedly clobbered by Margaret Thatcher. They jettisoned their looney left and reinvented themselves. Now the Labour Party runs England and is doing just fine, thank you.

The Democrats need to jettison their looney left (send them to the Greens). I do not want to vote for another Republican.
