Where are the RED DOG republicans?

[Shagbark Hickory]

That's what I want to know. If we have these blue dogs TRAITORS then surely there are some RED traiters on the other side, yeah? WTF are they?

switch parties and become blue dog dems.

6. Buried under the "L's" on the Dallas Cowboys football field.

That was done by Cheney. After he had "fun" with their corpses he had them all buried in the end zones with the aid of a secret crew from Hallaburton.

Some time in the future, they will tear that stadium down, start digging, and discover the mutilated and sexually abused corpses of liberal Republicans.

7. They are usually purged by their own party at some point (party abandons support).

[WeDidIt]

8. The last one was Lincoln Chafee

They've been defeated in primaries and pushed out of the party.

This action by the rightwing nutburgers is what allowed the Democrats to take the majority.

9. Most liberal Republicans get purged from their party one way or another.

They either lose a primary to a more conservative Republican or they lose in the general election to a Democrat. Either way the Republican Party ends up being more of 1 mindset.

10. Jacob Javits, Everett Dirksen and Nelson Rockfeller all died. nt

11. Follow the Money.

Know of any large corporate donors who would be willing to secure a Red Dog's votes?

That's right there are none.

But yet, the we have an anti small-d democratic organization called the the DLC which undermines attempts by the left to formulate progressive policy at all levels of national government, and channels money to these "new & improved" democrats willing work for their money.
