Maybe its time to form two new countries

Since only 20% claim to be republican anymore, then you only get 20% so go ahead and take Texas, and for good measure will throw in Alaska.

I see that Ex. immediately realized that they would need mine and others people's money! Maybe liberals aren't as dumb as they act.

AS OF 4/2009

DEMOCRATS............33%

REPUBLICANS..........22%

INDEPENDENTS.......39%


Both Dems and Repubs losing members with Independents gaining.

So BOTH Democrapland and Repubicland would be merely suburbs of THE US of INDEPENDENTLAND!

New ABC/WaPo poll out finds that only 20 percent of Americans claim to be Republicans, a 26-year low. Additionally, while a majority believe the country is on the wrong track, 49 percent trust Obama to make the right decisions for the country, versus 34 percent who trust Congressional Democrats, and a paltry 19 percent who trust the Congressional Republicans. (The 20 percent claim to be GOP number is apparently not in the data to which I linked, but ABC reported it on their evening newscast).

You are obviously a Liberal Democrap and are blinded by and overjoyed by the Repubicianss loss of membership. What is important and consistent is that both parties are losing membership, while Independents are growing.

Copied and pasted from REUTERS, Sep 2009: Congressional Approval rate,

currently just 22% give them positive ratings while
almost four in five Americans (78%) give them negative ones. The rating of
individual parties and leaders in Congress are not any better:
* One in five Americans (21%) give Democrats in Congress positive ratings while
47% give them negative ones and one-third (32%) say they are not familiar enough
to have an opinion;
* Even lower numbers (12%) give Republicans in Congress positive ratings and
over half (52%) give them negative ones while 37% are not familiar with them;
* Looking at House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, 19% of Americans give her job positive
marks but almost half (48%) give her negative ones and one-third (33%) are not
familiar with her;


Remember, even when Bush was in office, CONGRESS had a lower approval rate than George himself. And now they have gone downhill.

I left the Republican party mare than 30 years ago. BOTH parties STINK!
