What has happened to the Democratic Party? This historical organization has become quite hysterical of late. A Gallup survey revealed recently that more than half of its rank and file now have a favorable view of socialism.

Despite a robust economy, the message the Democrats seem to be pushing as we approach the mid-terms is impeachment and higher taxes. It’s a party that has apparently twisted and corrupted Abraham Lincoln’s great line to read instead: A people of the government, by the government, and for the government.
