the republican party has basically ceased to exist in massachusetts.

We're trying to do the same thing here in New Hampshire.

One party rule=Terrific!!!

At some point the Democrats might actually have to come up with... a plan!!!  *gasp*

Unlike the Republican party, they have plans.



Evil Plans?

Just hope the state economy doesn't go south or anything like that and you end up having to defend the Democrats over that.

The economy is, for the most part, a federal issue.

Maybe if we had huge taxes or something, but NH Democrats are libertarian-leaning.
Don't you have a huge property tax? Even in relation to other NE states?

Sometimes I get confused with the term Yankee...

Are we now applying it to every state east of the Dakotas that was a free state in 1860? or just the states in the Northeast (perhaps just New England) that were free states in 1860?

shrug

I just apply it to New England. That's the actual definition of a Yankee, and the traditional one, a resident or native of New England.

But you wouldn't consider a Pennsylvanian or a New Yorker (or even a Joisey person) a yankee? Those were pretty big Abolitionist/Republican states.
