GOP’s Big Tent Has Let Too Much Crap In

Posted By: J.J. Jackson* on December 30, 2007

I’ve been saying it for years and people have been sloughing it off as just nonsense. But when the polls bear it out maybe people will start listening.

The GOP’s philosophy of the “big tent” has let too many socialists in and the members of the GOP agree.

Seventy-four percent (74%) of Republican voterssee Rudy Giuliani as politically moderate or liberal. Fifty-nine percent (59%) say the same about John McCain while 43% hold that view of Mitt Romney. A Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 41% now see Mike Huckabee as moderate or liberal and 39% see Fred Thompson in that manner.

Call them “moderates”, call them “liberals”, call them “compassionate conservatives”. It doesn’t change what they are. They are big government, unconstitutional government, tax and spenders. And they came to the party because the security guard was sent home.

They are “FDR Democrats” basically. They aren’t full fledged communists but they aren’t going to stop us from heading down that path and will help push us along every now and again in the name of “doing something”.
