Could the Democrats become the new Libertarians?

[The One and Only...]

Let's think about this for a second.

We all know that the Democratic Party has drug policies a lot closer to the Libertarians than the GOP does. A lot more moderate, sure, but still closer.

Many of the Democratic candidates have come out a lot looser on gun control.

The Dems despise the Patriot Act, as can be seen through Gore's speech.

Two candidates have refused public funding, and it is highly likely that it may be repealed in the future because it has not prevented what it was intended to.

Most candidates call for the repeal of Bush's tax cuts, but not for the addition of new taxes.

Very few Dems support the Iraq war.

AND HERE'S THE REAL KICKER:

Few Dem's are in favor of the Rep. plans for the expansion of Medicare.

It seems that while one party is getting worse, the other is getting better - and the distinction between the two parties is getting harder to see every day.
