My staunchly rw friend and I were at his brother's place last Thursday and we watched a bit of Rachel Maddow and Hannity. Ann Coulter was a guest on Hannity and my friend gnashed his teeth about her. Up till now he sang her praises, even joking that he'd marry her. But he grumbled about her support for Chris Christie, unaware that she took it back because of his pro-reform stance on immigration. My friend thinks the Republican party should be all Tea Party, never mind that the TP viewpoint is that of a miniscule segment of the people, especially in Hawaii.
I miss the old days of Scoop Jackson Democrats and Rockefeller Republicans. I'd also like to see more parties represented in Congress: Green, Libertarian, Socialist, etc.

Me, too.
Oh, and I guess I can let you know here: the next Nation Magazine meeting is on Sunday, Oct. 20 at 6:30 p.m. at Kow's Restaurant. The topic of discussion will be population growth.
I will buy Kow's famous cookies for everyone for dessert.
Thank you for letting me know. I can't make it to the Sunday meeting but I should like to attend the next one. Please keep me posted.
