Republicans have a base that by and large aligns themselves with it because Republicans often keep their interests best at heart. Granted, this is not always true but that is just the reality of any party in politics PERIOD. Democrats use artificially created bases like unions, illegals, minorities(through manipulation) to garner their own strength these days.Why do you consider the Democrat's base artificially created? The Democrats are the party of the poor, and the working/middle class, IOW labor. Republicans are the party of the rich and corporate America.You'll soon have your wish of 100% Republican rule, thanks to the Citizens United ruling and the dismantling of organized labor. You know what they say about being careful what you wish for.The only reason right now I am set on seeing the annihilation of the Democratic party is because they no longer represent anything proper and good in this country. Their corruption is absolute without any real debate to be had on it.You think that the Dems have a monopoly on corruption? That sounds awfully naive. Edited by MistyBlue, 11 March 2011 - 06:42 PM.
