The opposite of Progressive is regressive

We are about to go backward, how far back is hard to say, but I am guessing with the love affair the republicans have with Reagan, we will regress to the 80's.

Over the course of the next two years, the media will be telling that this is the end for Democrats

They will paint the picture that the Democratic party is finished with a doomsday scenario for the liberals.

North Dakota measure 6 would "create a presumption that each parent is a fit parent and entitled to be awarded equal parental rights and responsibilities by a court unless there is clear and convincing evidence to the contrary."
