Thanks, I'm in a good mood tonight. I just got back from a Republican victory party, good food, cheap but not free drinks, interesting people. Everybody was talking about real change in the Party. It wasn't business as usual and that alone should send shivers of fear up the treasonous, spineless, spines of the RATS!

Good luck with that. The Republican faithful were talking about that same thing in '94 and 2000 as well. Unfortunately those actually holding office had different plans.
Only time will tell. I expect that the Republicrats will stop Obama's most egregious welfare state legislation, which is always a good thing. However, I fully expect that they will help him implement any new warfare/police state legislation he wants to pass.

I remember reading a book written by Phylis Schlafly for the 1964 election and it was advocating dramatic change among the republicans then. She complained about the 'eastern establishment' that controlled the republican party and was against the rank and file. very similar to the tea party complaints of today. and do you know that in 2004 Phylis Schlafly supported Bush for president. She's advocated radical change among the republicans all her adult life, here she is in her 80's and supporting the republican establishment.
Phyllis Schlafly drank the kool aid long before 2004, but it was more of a case of her being lied to, made promises to and of "there's no fool like an old fool" (note to Rojo: Look in mirror)
When at the top of her game, Schlafly was brilliant and I spoke with her 10 years ago seeking an endorsement for my candidate, which she refused, preferring to support a RINO that made promises to her, who then lost.
