    A mod said modern average dems are to the right of 80s average GOP. I mentioned a few of the many horrors 80s gop started… my comment got deleted and I got banned.

      even Obama himself said that if he was in politics in the early 1980’s he’d be considered center-right. That’s how far the GOP has lost the plot; it’s more moderate members look “leftist” by comparison.

        Hard to believe when you look at the actual platform for 80s GOP vs Obama’s platform. Dramatically different.
