NH RNC Committeewoman Disappoints the Base

Bummer - I was so looking forward to this:
[Phyllis] Woods is not supporting a resolution "recognizing the Democrats' march toward Socialism," which picked up steam from the RNC's conservative caucus.

...It proposes that Democrats acknowledge they have evolved from "a party of tax and spend to a party of tax and nationalize and, therefore, should agree to rename themselves the Democrat Socialist Party."

I personally would have gone with Commie Rats, but maybe that's a bit over the top. Still, I find myself as disappointed as the NHGOP base, as expressed in full by the UL comment section of the article.

Without some kind of pointless name calling for Rush and FOX to toss around, how will we ever improve on these numbers?  I mean, just how many TeeVee torture laudations can the the Cheney clan make on our behalf?

Compared to 2001, when George W. Bush first took office as president, GOP self-identification has fallen by ten points among college graduates, nine points among those 18-29 years of age, nine points in the Midwest, six in the East, five in the West, and even four points in the South. Married people identifying as Republicans have decreased by five points, and the difference is eight points among the unmarried. The list goes on and on.
