Couple of letters from Nordlinger's column. "Dear Mr. Nordlinger: I don't know if it's a trend, but consider this: I have voted for every Democrat that ran for office, starting with McGovern and ending with Gore in the last election. I will be voting for Bush in this one, regardless of who is on the other side. I will also be voting Republican in local elections. "The Democratic party is totally bankrupt, full of personal vendetta and hatred. They have no ideas on what they would do in power, only what they don't want the Republicans to do. I do not trust them with the security or the future of this country anymore. "When I voted for Clinton, I felt the country deserved him. We didn't deserve the best. I don't feel that way anymore. I want someone who stands for the things that this country stands for, someone who has read the Constitution and isn't interested in living under the U.N. Charter. I want to vote for someone who understands that those of us out of work right now want jobs, not unemployment extensions. I am not hearing anything from the Democrats that leads me to believe that they get it." And a related one: "Mr. Nordlinger, I wrote to you in April and said how I as a lifelong Democrat was planning to vote for President Bush next year. Well, my plans have changed. Not about voting for Bush but about continuing to be a Democrat. I made the switch and became a Republican last week. I believe Ronald Reagan is credited with saying, 'I didn't leave my party; my party left me.' That's not nearly strong enough a sentiment for how I feel now. The Democrats didn't just leave me; they're driving away at full speed into oncoming traffic. The Democratic party has gone off the deep end and is being taken over by the extreme Left. And by extreme, I don't mean Mondale/Dukakis liberal; I mean people who would rather have the United States meet with disaster than have Bush succeed. These people need to be kept as far from the levers of power as possible." nationalreview.com
