What political trends you don't like about your state?

[Napoleon]

I don't like the fact that my state have been trending towards the Democrats since Prescott Bush was in office.
Hopefully parts of the state (like Lichtfield County) will become more competitive in the future, as it really has no business being a Democratic One-Party state.

Hey now, you Republicans got 16 years as Governor and almost won in 2010. You also go to elect Joe Lieberman to the US Senate.

Indeed we did, but that is chickensh**t compared to having full controll of the state legislature and the Congressional delegation, as the Democrats have today.

You did have a majority of US Representatives until 2006.

Hcallega's post is spot on! Snowstalker, the protectionist beliefs you hold is macroeconomic and corporate affirmative action. America wont succeed if we have to rely on the government to maintain not only the public sector, but the private sector. The modern economy will have to compete globally in the long term and the modern party needs to adjust accordingly.

Also, I'd rather have socially liberal suburbanites than the socially conservative white working class.

The growth of the "Lieberman idiot maverick" movement among candidates. That and how self-destructive the dems are over here.

Try Lieberman is an idiot neo-conservative. Notice that Democrats hold way more CT offices now than when Lieberman was still a Democrat.
