but it hasn't added up to anything that change the usual ideological cycle of American politics (as in who is elected and governs) since the 1960's. Reagan winning in the 80s. The Republicans winning the House for the first time in my life time since 1954. Also conservatives having a lot more power within the Republican party than they did in 1960, 1970, or 1975. No change?? Of course the fact that the change happened, doesn't mean its going to keep moving that way. A counter shift may already be occurring, but the conservatives growth from the 50s until at least the height of Regan's popularity, and perhaps until or just past the 94 elections was quite real.
