That would be Phyllis Schafly, I believe. She wrote the best-seller with that title.

When she was a kid that paper hammered FDR and “Me Too” Republicans. Both slogans “A choice not an echo” and “Me too Republicans” originated on its pages during FDR’s time.

In the 1950's, Me-Toos called themselves "Modern Republicans." If you're interested in their ideology, A Republican Looks at His Party by Arthur Larson (New York: Harper, 1956) is one of their manifestos. Today, they are called RINOs.

Thanks.

I hanker for the old days when the Tribune wasn't linked up with the LA Slimes and all their staff of socialist writers and cartoonists (e.g., Conrad).

I'm not old enough to remember Col. McCormick but have heard a lot from the in-laws who lived in Chicago in that era. It's a different paper now, unfortunately.
