Republican remake
Riz and his guests discuss the future of the post-Bush Republican party.
After a sound beating US elections in the 2008, the Republican party is looking for a comeback. But what do they stand for and who will lead them?
Voters seemingly rejected the neo-con agenda pushed by US president George W. Bush’s administration over the last eight years.
So, what about a return to Reagan republicanism, which many feel Bush abandoned?
Or do Republicans need a new and different strategy all together?
The cyclical nature of Washington politics deems that Republicans will be back in power at some point.
