Tom Ridge...Who?

Remember Tom Ridge? No? Well he has resurfaced, and now he is chimming in with Powell telling Limbaugh and others to tone down and for the repubs to reach out to moderates...

Ridge...

Powell...


...this would be the death of the Republican party. If you don't stand for something, you will be swept aside by those that do. The last election was more about rejecting corrupt "conservatives" and clamoring for something different then an embracing of moderate or leftist agendas. Conservatives so called gave the left an opportunity of a lifetime, and they took it. Hopefully there will be enough of an America left after four to eight years of democratic rule to be able to save it.

The republicans have a historic opportunity as well. As Obama's team says, "Never waste a good crisis." The repubs got their rears handed to them because they strayed from their ideological foundations and just became a mouth piece for banks and global conglomerates. Now is the time to shine and show a true alternative to leftist idiofacism and socialism. Instead Powell and Ridge are telling republicans to in essence become democrats. If the repubs buy this, well they can kiss the support of their party's core goodbye, and maybe after all the betrayals of the last 20 years that would be a good thing.
