[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There will be a massive disconnect with politicians and their voters in 20 years. When the 60+ crowd are gone, the dems will be panicking as to how to run more progressive campaigns rather than resenting anyone whose marginally more left than a conservative 10 years ago. The republicans will be great though.[/quote]

What?  
The Dems will adjust.  They believe in civil rights, rule of law, making the environment sustainable, women's rights, abortion rights.

The R's used to believe in fiscally conservative policies, state's rights, and ending abortion.

Now, their main unifying policy (abortion) is off the list, and they no longer believe in state's rights or fiscally conservative policies.

Neither policy has a clear vision for foreign policy.

In 20 years, the D's have something to build on / build up / build towards.

The R's have dismantled the entire government, made the tax structure unsustainable, and totally eliminated our leadership position in foreign policy.  They've made us an unreliable partner and even have brought into question whether we have or support rule of law.

In what way are the R's in a better position to have an agenda for the future?[/quote]
