	Encyclopedia: GOP (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The Republican Party (often GOP for Grand Old Party) is one of the two major political parties in the United States.
		The President of the United States, George W. Bush, is a member of the party – and its leader – and it currently has majorities in the Senate and the House, as well as in governorships and state legislative seats.
		Organized in Ripon, Wisconsin on February 28, 1854, as a party opposed to the expansion of slavery into new territories, it is not to be confused with the Democratic-Republican party of Thomas Jefferson or the National Republican Party of Henry Clay.

	Evil GOP Bastards
		The GOP's demagoguery on abortion has given them a huge electoral payoff among the religious right with the expenditure of virtually no political capital.
		However, Republican devotion to the interests of children can't be considered more than shameless pandering since their concern for child welfare ends at the moment of birth.
		This is waaaaay beyond normal political hardball, but one wouldn't be able to recognize that by the timid response by the Democrats, who seem paralyzed by the brazenness of GOP corruption and blind to the enormity of the danger to our democracy.

	Concerned Women for America - GOP Chairman Racicot Defends Meeting with ‘Gay’ Pressure Group

		Wildmon of AFA also said a statement was needed, and that he was tired of watching the GOP drift in the same direction as the Democrats on the issue of homosexual activism.
		Lou Sheldon noted that, in 2000, liberals made an effort to strip the GOP platform of some pro-family planks, and he asked Racicot if there was any effort underway to do the same in the upcoming platform battle.

	Boston.com / News / Local / State GOP voter rolls on decline
		The number of registered Republican voters in Massachusetts has dropped by roughly 15,000 since Governor Mitt Romney won election in fall 2002, despite his efforts to rebuild the GOP in the heavily Democratic Bay State, figures released yesterday show.
		The GOP's enrollment stands at its lowest point since February 2000, the figures show, presenting Romney with a stiff challenge as he attempts to seat more Republicans in the Legislature this November.
		Unenrolled voters were largely responsible for electing Romney in 2002, and the governor has targeted his campaign since then on what he calls a reform agenda aimed at independent and swing voters.

		Through his key position on the Judiciary Committee, McCollum was more influential than any Democrat in sending, during the course of his House tenure, billions of dollars to advance the pro-homosexual, pro-abortion, pro-welfare rights agenda of left-wing Legal Services activists.

		By 37 points, the public says the GOP is the party “concerned with the needs and interests of business and other powerful groups” and by 38 points they say the Republicans are the party “concerned with the needs and interests of business”.
		In addition, the poll provides ample documentation of the “Indycrat” phenomenom I wrote about last week—that is, the close alignment of independents’ and Democrats’ views and the great distance of both from the views of GOP identifiers.
		For an insightful discussion about the GOP's 'wicked genius' for evasive action, see Christopher Hayes' "No Right Turn ; If Americans haven't gotten more conservative, why is the GOP in charge?" in the current issue of the Washington Monthly.
