Roemer is a rare species, a demonRAT with a brain. His type is on the verge of extinction in the DemonRAT party. He knows what is wrong with his party but like Ronald Reagan, Bill Bennett, Condi Rice and many other democrats before him the only solution is to join us. I think he knows it, but it is a painful admission, to acknowledge that you have been wrong ... for your whole career.
Back in the 90's when we was in Congress Roemer came to my 11th Grade history class. I was solidly Right at a young age and gave the guy as hard a time as I could but he came across as reasonable, rational, and a decent guy. There is obviously no future for him in the Democratic party.
You obviously didn't see his treatment of Condi in the 9-11 Hearings. Idiologically blindfolded for life.
It was maddening to watch him denigrate her, while knowing he's not morally fit to clean her toilet.
