On the other hand, if I was a Republican, I'd be disturbed by the lack of fiscal responsibility and religious rightists.

Basically hit the nail on the head Alcon. Those are basically my beefs with the Republican Party.

Not really. The Republicans are too dominated by southern populists, who don't give a damn about the economy and run on social issues only. Doesn't anyone remember Reagan, who actually held non-defense spending down in the eighties? How about Barry 'I don't care if our soldiers are straight, as long as they shoot straight' Goldwater? 

I completely agree. The economic illiterates of the fundamentalist bloc have succeeded in making the GOP lurch to the left on economics and right on social issues. W. is the ideal man for those "populists", but true conservatives are going to have to look elsewhere.

I have to agree with both of you here.
