the national democrat party is absolutely unrecognizable compared to where it was 20 years ago. Bill
Clinton could
never get the nomination today, he’s waaaaay to
moderate. Balance the budget by cutting taxes and kicking people
off welfare? Come on, Paul, thats tea party ideology. And it worked .

No, I'm saying the opposite. Taxes, abortion, nationalism - look at Reagan's positions vs today. The far left candidates get most of the press but the majority of the left voters wants someone more moderate then those candidates. |

I agree that very few voters want radicals. i don’t agree that at the national level, the GOP is anywhere near as radical as the democrats. the abortion law in AL is out there. but by and large, the leaders of the GOP are waaaaay more
moderate than Pelosi, Schumer, and the gaggle of freaks running for potus, except for Biden. and an impressive congresswoman from Hawaii who isn’t going anywhere.

Louisiana’s Democratic Governor Signs Heartbeat Abortion Bill Into Law
May 30, 2019 6:03 PM
It passed the state House of Representatives on Wednesday on a bipartisan 79-23 vote.
The bill’s sponsor, Democratic state senator John Milkovich, argued that the effective six-week abortion ban reflected the values of his constituents in a statement celebrating the bill’s passage.
