[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a life long Democrat that voted for Hogan, I would take a Hogan clone in a second. I want a moderate that is not going for any of the Democratic far left nuttiness and someone who is not a Trumper. [/quote]
+1, Hogan is the only Republican I have ever voted for and someone Hogan-esque, whether they are a Dem or Republican, is now what I look for in a candidate when I am deciding who to vote for. I really hope he runs for President, if he were able to somehow make it out of the primaries (unlikely I know), I think he could win the general election.[/quote]

Agreed.  I didn't vote for him but I don't hate him.  I'd take his more moderate approach over crazy right-wing people any day.

And I'm increasingly willing to take his more conservative approach over the crazy left-wing people, too.

Both sides have lost their minds.   [/quote]

No, both sides have not lost their minds. There is no false equivalency here. If anything, both parties have lost their mind in a rightward direction for 40 years. Ronald Reagan’s tax policy is to the left of mainstream Democrats today. The Republican Party has gone off the rockers with extreme conspiratorial right wing rhetoric and gaslighting, outright fascism, and the usual bending over for corporate donors and Wall Street. The Democrats are still stuck in failed neoliberal corporate friendly policy that does nothing for the lives of ordinary Americans and are a far cry from the transformative economic policies of FDR or even LBJ. But they do cater to some fringe groups with mildly annoying woke identity politics rhetoric. [/quote]
