Who Is Responsible For The Demise Of The Republican Party

===============================================
As a moderate Republican who has fought the neo-con and the confederate wings of the Party for the past 20 years, the blame should not be placed solely on the politicians. The people that voted for them to stick it to the liberals and minorities are as much at fault as the politicians. They slavishly and mindlessly repeated the mantra of the #1 angry white man in America: Rush Limbaugh, who led them over the cliff to their own demise. For those of you who supported these folks with votes and money, where is their support for you, now that you've lost your house, job, health care, and in general the life that you once knew? These very politicians spent the last eight years bankrupting the country with your blind support. Now that the government that your taxes help to support is growing more insolvent by the day, where is the return on your invest? Of the people, by the people and for the people, remember your civics lessons? This is supposed to be our government, run and managed by us. You let them use your anger, bitterness and resentment to their advantage and to your own detriment. Personal responsibility? Please, these same politicians, pundits and media types have grow rich off of you and now that they have bled you dry, your services are no longer required. Your values were never theirs, they were only commodities, traded and bartered for profit and sold to the highest bidder.
