He had a good point but I don’t see a DEM-RINO ‘Uniparty’ as the answer.

Unlike so many here...

It’s not as though those are the only choices.

Do you think Adams was speaking in support of some sort of of “DEM-RINO Uniparty”?

Today, on this thread, you are firing away ramdomly and hitting some conservative FReepers in the process. Please, get a grip.

We were strictly warned, by the way...

“And of fatal tendency...to put, in the place of the delegated will of the Nation, the will of a party; - often a small but artful and enterprising minority...They are likely, in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the Power of the People and to usurp for the themselves the reins of Government; destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion...

But this leads at length to a more formal and permanent despotism...Disorders and miseries, which result, gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an Individual...(who) turns this disposition to the purposes of his own elevation, on the ruins of Public Liberty...The spirit of encroachment tends to consolidate the powers of all the departments in one, and thus to create, whatever the form of government, a real despotism...”

— George Washington, Farewell Address
