The reason I ask this is that dazzleman Smiley once told me he thought me more of a 1940s Democrat than a contemporary Democrat

I would be inclined to say Kemp or Walter mitty would be more of a past GOP than Bullmoose was (a moderate to left leaning on social issues).  Even when the GOP was more moderate on social issues, they weren't as far left as Bullmoose and closer to kemp or Waltermitty.

Cosmo Kramer, Democratic 'Hawk', and me. 

As for Republicans: Bull Moose and Walter Mitty -perhaps John Ford as well.

No way.  As a teenager, and thus a newcomer and contemporary Republican, I find dazzleman's views very in touch.
Dazz is generally "in touch" from what I hear. Cheesy

hehehe . . . wrong green, bud.  Wink

I'm not sure where I would line up "historically."  Even with the 90's reform party I have some sharp differences.  hehehe

HA!  If anyone is in line with the Democratic Party's past, it would be Preston, Hawk, Frodo, and myself.  All four of us would fit in nicely with the Southern Democrats of the 1940s and '50s.

For Republicans, WalterMitty, Brandon, and BullMoose are throwbacks to the Old Republican Party when it was mainly composed of socially moderate but fiscally conservative Yankees from the Northeast.

I'm surprised that I am the first to say that Sam Spade and CarlHayden are most like the old party, though I am glad that they stick with us!

Preston, DemoHawk and Al are the inverse of modern Democrats.  They are far more representative of the party in the 1940s than today.
