Re: What's the deal with...
My grandfather was a life-long Republican, and a state legislator for most of his adult life. Much to his disgust, he lived long enough to see the word "Conservative" hijacked by ideologues for whom whether or not what they were saying was true seemed to matter a whole lot less than whether or not what they were saying would garner votes.
It's part of drove him out of politics in disgust.
Cheers,
Michael
