Republicans Are Running Scared

Ah yes, the Republican Old Guard who are really just religions democrats who switched sides during the civil rights movement, or their descendents who kept the family tradition alive.

Honestly the Republican party will be changing in the next 10 or so years, it needs to drop the religious angle and adopt a "free to practice" stance which encompasses all religions equally vs the core democrats "atheism only" stance. Also they really need to become more accepting of social issues, things like homosexual marriage and cannibis legalization are the two big ones but I'm sure there are many others. Most Americans are actually financially conservative, we don't like throwing away so much money on people who have made it a career to life off social assistance, but we also don't like some big government telling us how to think and act on our own property. I know both parties do that, but the progressives are far better at hiding their social engineering behind language and social norms vs flat out telling you what they don't want you to do.

Camille Paglia (Feminist Icon) said something profound today.

Young women today do not understand the fragility of civilization and the constant nearness of savage nature

I would ad that this lack of perception is not limited to young females. It has become rather ubiquitous nowadays.
