They are, above all, the party of divide and conquer and hard to see that will ever change. They haven't been the Party of Lincoln for nearly 140 years. They should abandon that moniker and acknowledge that they are merely the Party of Reagan. Hell, my guess is that 90% of the party actually hates Abe Lincoln.Jimbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13891331049535299222noreply@blogger.com
