Maybe this is ONE of the reasons I am fairly comfy here in America’s Third World County:
Do note that almost none of the officeholders labeled “Republican” are “Elite Country Club Repugnican’ts” like most national Repugnican’t officeholders, and the lone Democratic officeholder would be comfortable running as a Republican in most locales.
At least I can find a little bit of common ground to talk with these folks. *heh*
