I really liked the democrats before the Great Society. FDR, Truman, and especially Kennedy were all great. The welfare programs that they had were truely a safety net, and not FEDERAL wealth distrubtion for the sake of it.
They were aggressive in the Cold War like the Republicans, but not as much, they supported civil rights equality, didn't have religious politics, had ballanced budgets (except during Depression) and were just cooler, ballin people anyway. :P
Clinton's the only backlash to that, in sense, and I would be voting democrat if they stayed that way.
