'Real republican" ?? What is this that you speak of? You must be thinking of a moderate republican. They are useless in todays political climate.

This is the state of america: Republicans are bankrolled by large corporations and very rich individuals who want to sustain their own wealth. They make decisions concerning economy and policies based on what is best for those individuals. There are moderate republicans that do consider more than those people but the party majority will not allow those members to really get very far with their opinions.

Democrats are bankrolled by far left liberals and get elected by pulling on the heart string of America. They for the most part do far too much. Most of their 'social reforms' are just shots in the dark at the problem they are trying to fix. They tax the rich and try to help the poor, who just take advantage of their flawed policy.

Both sides SUCK.

However, only one side will without a doubt put a stop to the loss of american lives in the Iraq war. This will be what wins them the presidency.
