RE :”Former Senate Majority Leader and 1996 GOP Presidential nominee Bob Dole excoriated the Republican Party on Fox News Sunday, saying the Party lacked new ideas and engaged in too much obstructionist activity in the upper chamber.
They ought to put a sign on the National Committee doors that says ‘Closed for repairs,’ until New Year's Day next year and spend that time going over ideas and positive agendas,” he said.
Additionally, Dole remarked that not only was he doubtful he could “make it” in today's Republican Party, but he believes Ronald Reagan and Richard Nixon could not make it either in the current GOP, saying, “Reagan couldn't have made it. Certainly, Nixon couldn't have made it, because he had ideas. We might’ve made it, but I doubt it.”

So we are supposed to use you as an example Bob?
Didn't you get your butt kicked in 1996?
Then why should we listen to you?

I see little point in criticizing Dole. He turns 90 and has forgotten how he operated while in office (and he’s been out 17 years now).

It was also Dole who tried to tell Reagan that his tax cuts wouldn’t fly, the SOB!

Reagan rammed it down Dole’s throat, anyway.
