[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is increasing partisanship (maybe not over a 100 yr perspective but as compared to pre-1994 when Gingrich toik over the House, and the last few years have been even worse) which means that people who would tolerate a Connie Morrella or an R on the council no longer vote that way. Plus the increasing income inequality even post-Great Recession, where new grads have crushing debt loads and other people are debating private planes has led some people to think we need more fundamental change. [/quote] Mac, Gilbert, Newt, Connie, Howie - they were different kinds of Rs. In today’s polarizing political climate, there are unfortunately very few successors to them out there.[/quote] Exactly-- Mac and Connie would be out of place in today's Republican party. [/quote]
