I don't know...Betty, I totally agree with you. I don't know what's happened to the Republican Party in the last 20 years. There used to be good, honest, even-tempered Republicans who wanted to help people. I'm thinking of Sen. Dave Durenberger from Minnesota, Sen. Dirksen of Illinois, etc. These men wanted to work together with Democrats for the good of the country. But it seems as though there are none of these types of Republicans left. In my state it's the same - narrow-minded, mostly uneducated, ignorant men and women whose goal seems to be to constrict the choices of everyone besides themselves so that they can reduce the amount of taxes. They don't seem to realize that taxes pay for public services like roads, public health, education, and public safety that we all need.<br /><br />It's hard to avoid the impulse to crawl into a cave and come out in a year to see what's happened. But that would play into their hands. I think that good people have to stay alert and call out the ridiculous proposals and lies that many of the candidates promote.Rin Porterhttp://www.thingscouldbeworse.org/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26258540.post-13787036319544270042015-10-29T09:07:19.849-05:002015-10-29T09:07:19.849-05:00From what I have seen as a 'Brit' I am not...From what I have seen as a 'Brit' I am not impressed.

Here in Kans...I couldn't agree with you more! <br /><br />Here in Kansas small town hospitals are closing because Brownback wouldn't expand Medicaid. He's all for the rich! He's obviously been bought off by the Koch brothers and the rest of them.
