Time for a return to an absolute monarchy ruling in God's name (or substitute your own supernatural being).

It is sad to see the Democrat wagon losing its wheels and plunging over the cliff to destruction.

An amusing (and sad) Op-Ed column in the New York Times today.

"Donner Party Democrats," Timothy Egan, March 22, 2008.

One quote- but seek out the article and read it.
"The original Donner Party made history for one reason: by eating their dead. Cannibalism- it was all they could do to stay alive."

After today, look for it in the archives.

Oh, well, a few more extracts-
"Deep in the treeless expanse of the West, they came upon one of the stragglers from the other party: John McCain. Once, he had been a maverick. Now he looked old and worn and lost. His own party had left him for dead, he explained. Called him amnesty man.
"He seemed harmless enough. .......They didn't give him a second thought."
-------------------------
And then, as the snow piled high in March, the Dems turned on each other"..............
At their lowest ebb, they looked back and again saw the straggler, McCain. He was stronger, walking with renewed vigor despite his age."
------------------------
"His party was united. What had been hatred for McCain was now hatred for the other party's preacher. They could direct all their historic resentments, their bound-up frustrations, against this preacher, the Rev. Wright. So long as they hissed and booed at his picture every night, they stayed together, saying the nastiest of things."

Will anyone remain of the Democrats, or will they all be carrion, torn to bits by the victorious Republican Party?
