The Republican Party is no longer the party of wealthy businessmen and statuesque blondes. Sorry, Ann. Sorry, Mitt. Sorry, me.
This is very true. He almost comes off as a 1950's male manican from a department store. More and more the GOP is becoming what the Democrats were a few generations ago; the party of the common man. Democrats today are so out of touch with how socially conservative Americans and people who believe in earning their way through life that they don't even understand how they come across. They give the impression that they know what's best for everyone but when it comes to them, it's ok to make their own decisions. Members of congress should have had to go on assigned health care plans before passing the health care bill for example. Also, the arrogant claim in their party that people can't be successful without college. Excuse me, but I know several people who only went through high school and do very well compared to those of us who went to college and only collected debt in a society where 18 college graduates are now applying for one full time salaried position. In fact I was on a job in 2008 where the subcontractor dropped out of high school during his second year of going to 9th grade and now makes $126,000 a year. This should sound good to all those recent college graduates competing for jobs while working part time jobs.
In what alternate reality world does this take place?
If you look at polling, the majority of people feel GOP policies favor the rich......party of common man my ass.
Indeed. The GOP is popular among certain segments of the (white) lower to middle class population, but their policies still favor the very wealthy.
