++I am curious. At the state level ,they have destroyed Florida under Gov. Scott, Kansas under Brownback,Wisconsin under Scott Walker,Louisiana under Bobby Jindal, and New Jersey under Christie. By any measure of federalism, they failed. Jesus can't use the Ladies' room in North Carolina so true entire ACC left.
++At a national level, they did not keep the country safe, they invaded countries unnecessarily, ballooned the defense budget, and ruined both the American and global economy. And nominated knuckleheads to the Supreme Court.
++If anything,they have moved aggressively backwards.
++One person said that George W. Bush aggressively fought AIDS in Africa. I'll give him that and the transition to democracy in Mali which lasted a nanosecond.
++But seriously, what ideas with merit have they offered. We are talking about the second largest party in the industrialized world. Vouchers for Medicare? Dynamic scoring for national budgets? I can't think of any but I'm going to give it some thought.
++Let's take conservation and the national parks system that TR created and FDR followed up on. The current GOP platform is to return federally owed lands to the states and have the private sector bid to exploit their resources. Gay rights. They are for reparative therapy which only traumatizes gays. Climate change? They used to be for Cap and Trade and the EPA. No longer.
++I'll give it more thought but I'm stuck. And so should you.
