We are at the end of the Reagan era." Or, at least, that is the claim of voices as diverse as Newt Gingrich and Ed Rollins on the right and Sen. Chuck Schumer and pollster Stanley Greenberg on the left. It is true the Republican Party is having difficulty retooling its message for the 21st century. But so is the Democratic Party.

Every presidential election is about change, and no more so than at the end of a two-term president's time in the White House. Parties have to constantly update themselves if they hope to remain relevant. The difficulty for both Republicans and Democrats is that our political system is at a point where more than the normal amount of party growth and development is needed. Both parties are suffering the consequences of seeing substantial parts of their 20th-century agendas adopted; both parties are struggling to fashion new answers to the new challenges of a young century.

1. babsbunny, I must alert this type of post because

whenever Karl Rove is referenced here as anything but the pile of feces that he has proven himself to be, I'll be there.

2. Good intentions on your part, I know, but

I can't read anything written by Karl Rove and I refuse to have anything to do with Newsweek, now that they've hired that walking pustule. It's brave of you to do so, and I'm glad someone from DU has the nerve to keep tabs on the enemy. Yes, enemy, not just political opponent. Rove and his ilk would love to see us all dead, preferably of something painful and lingering.
