When did Republicans become democrats and democrats became Republicans?

Republicans were always mostly in the Northern states ever since the Civil war. Also republicans favored a strong central government, hence Abraham Lincoln using the most federal power in history. The democratic party was always mostly in the southern states ever since the civil war because many Democrats supported slavery which was mostly in the South. Up unitl 1976 did democrats start to be mostly in the northern states and republicans in the southern states like it is today. They basically flip flopped demographics and ideas over 150 years. Though the demographics have changed republicans have always had a conservative base. Conservatives lost power in the Democratic party during the 1960s. They struggled to survive during the next few decades, many of them switching to Republicans along the way. Eventually with both Obama's victories unfortunately the conservative democrats are now barely existent, everyone left has now switched party affiliation.


Do democrats have lower IQ?

There is no scientific evidence to suggest that Democrats have lower IQs than Republicans or any other political group. Intelligence is a complex trait influenced by various factors, and it is not determined by political affiliation. It is important to avoid making generalizations or assumptions about the intelligence of individuals based on their political beliefs.


Which political party was in control of the US Senate in 2007?

As of January 3, 2007, the Democrats took control of the US Senate. While the count was actually 49-49, there were two so-called "independents." Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, officially an independent, had always caucused with the Democrats, and he cast the deciding vote that put Nevada Sen. Harry Reid in place as the Senate Majority Leader. (Sanders, while officially an independent, describes himself as a "democratic socialist.") Sen. Joe Liebermann, from Connecticut, likewise votes most often with the Democrats, but did not provide a decisive vote in the division of the Senate in 2007.
