PRINCETON, NJ -- The Republican Party's image has gone from bad to worse over the past month, as only 34% of Americans in a Nov. 13-16 Gallup Poll say they have a favorable view of the party, down from 40% in mid-October. The 61% now holding an unfavorable view of the GOP is the highest Gallup has recorded for that party since the measure was established in 1992.

5. LET'S END IT NOW...
....by our sheer majority in congress and the presidency, we can restrict how the finances of the republican party is utilized. Since the very tenets of the party is not only morally repulsive but, in many cases illegal, we can enact the RICO statutes against the party.

ONCE WE DO THAT, then our job will be to transform the Democratic Party from an organization of idealistic DEFENSE that primarily was, literally, at WAR with the republican party (which I've stated had long ago ceased to be a political party, in its truest sense, to that of a criminal organization), to that of a political organization with issues that can be debated on a moral, conflict free scale. At that time, other parties such as the Green Party, the Peace and Freedom Party, and the various Socialist parties can become more prominent. In short, TRUE democracy can occur.
