The problem is the GOP is currently being ran by old folks who are stuck in the past but there are many younger GOPers who will soon take over and not be stuck in the past and move the GOP back to where it once was. We just have to wait for the older GOPers to die or get booted out.
Old folks? Its not like the Dems don't have their own old folks: James Carville, Stan Greenburg(I think, Rose DeLauro's husband), and David Axlerod isn't that young.

No its actually the younger Tea Party People that are damaging them like a Jennie Beth Martin or that Amy girl(no not Amy Holmes.) I mean those 2 women no disrespect but they have never run a campaign and it seems like they don't know what type of candidates the demographics of the country will support. Those 2 women are probably my age(in their early 30's) but the demography of the country has changed since they graduated High School and they just don't realize it I don't think. People like the Steve Schmidt's of the have run a campaign and the people that run the Tea Party they lack that experience of never running a campaign.

^I still can't believe West Virginia voted for Dukakis.
Well W. VA voted for Carter too in 1980 so don't be too surprised about Dukakis winning it in 1988. 1980 was a horrible year for Democrats as well at the Ballot Box. The Dems still had a little New Deal Coalition going on in the decade of the 1980's before Bill Clinton came along and the DLC policy's were put into effect in the early to mid 90's.
