Poll question: Do you want to change party names?
Is it time to change the names of the parties to reflect their true philosophies? Have the parties changed so much that they no longer have any connection with their historical origins and original attraction?

2. If we're going to change party names, we ought to just give them descriptive names.
Republican Party can become the Hypocrite-Bigot-Borrow-Spend-War Party

and the

Democratic Party can become the Vision-Hope-Responsibility-Prosperity-Peace Party.

3. "Conservative" doesn't sound nasty enough to reflect their true
values. "Conservative" isn't always a bad thing. I think the Corporate & Wealthy Party, or greedy, crooked, etc., would be more fitting.

4. I only wish the Democratic Party was Liberal enough to be called Liberal or Progressive
Party.
