Democrats have certainly changed, but it's the Republicans that have dropped their entire platform from yesteryear.

Republicans (in office) today:
Borrow and spend, stealing our children's future

care a lot about what goes on in your bedroom and want to change the Constitution to make you fit into their version of "America"

believe in expanding government with new departments and new levels of bureaucracy

have a dangerous expansionist, "policeman of the world" policy at a time when our economy is weakening and the rest of the world's is strengthening

pander to various small tents, overpromising and underdelivering to them all

have weakened the Military to the point where we are not ready to defend ourselves

place a higher priority on Security than Privacy and Freedom

have withdrawn nearly all diplomatic efforts and replaced them with a military option, one which our adversaries know is impossible

Don't care about Small Business, gutting the SBA of funding and staff

Pander to big business with tax breaks for off-shore operations and outsourcing labor



That pretty much sums up the Republican Party in the last 7 years.

Who in their right mind would want to be part of that?
