It's not just the proverb

 It's not just the way the Bush administration responded to Katrina, but events afterwards. There's too much history.... The center of gravity of the Republican Party is white Southerners, the group African-Americans trust the least.

 Regardless of the issues, African-Americans aren't going to vote Republican because they don't trust the Republican Party.

 There's a lingering perception among African American voters that the Republican Party is not interested in cultivating their votes, especially now that Hurricane Katrina, race and the Republican Party has been injected into the discussion. But this [slow government response] was not racially driven.

 They're trying to woo black votes to the Republican Party, ... It's turning African-Americans off. Now everybody sees the arrogance and the hypocrisy of this administration. This is nothing personal. It's his policies -- in direct opposition to what Dr. King lived and died for.

 I've been a Republican ever since! ... And trust me, in my wife's family, that's no small achievement! I'm proud to belong to the party of Abraham Lincoln, the party of Teddy Roosevelt, the party of Ronald Reagan -- and the party of George W. Bush.
  Arnold Schwarzenegger

 The Republican Party, the party of Lincoln, will not be whole again until more African-Americans come home.

 If you ask most Americans who represents the (Republican) Party, they're going to say George Bush, not any of the leaders of Congress. Nevertheless, the congressional Republicans are already looking at the day when President Bush leaves office and they're still around. So they're looking for their own distinctive identity.

 [But when it was time to aim for the White House, it was crucial that he get the tax music exactly right; the whole strategy depended on it, and not just for winning the primaries. If conservatives came to think Bush was an ardent tax cutter, they would be willing to let him roam much closer to the center on just about everything else to win the heart of independents.] He moved the party on immigration and education, ... but no Republican could have abandoned tax cuts and won the primary, or the general.

 I'm old enough to remember when the political parties competed for the votes of African-Americans, and I'm old enough to remember when most black people were Republicans. The Republican Party was the party of Abraham Lincoln and could do no wrong.

 Politically, the group that has gained the most after the civil rights movement was white Southern conservatives. They have transformed the Republican Party, which has become the dominant political party.

 This was a continuing theme for many years for the Republican Party. For the Democratic Party now also to have a group of people saying, 'trust me because I have a combination of values and know-how' is an expansion of where we can find attractive candidates.

 For too long, our movement has been a predominantly -- frankly, almost exclusively -- white, evangelical, Republican movement, with a political center of gravity centered in the safety of the suburbs,

 The United States faces a ruthless enemy - and we need a commander-in-chief and a Congress who understand the nature of the threat and the gravity that American finds itself in. President Bush and the Republican Party do. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for many Democrats.
  Karl Rove

 You're starting to see the beginnings of a shift in the center of gravity away from Bush and his agenda toward the next agenda and the next leader of the party.

 Many people, not only African-Americans but certainly African-Americans, were shocked, angered and focused by what they've seen since Katrina, ... And I think that's the one thing that clearly has been lacking in terms of the response to the neglect that's been happening in urban America for some time -- focus.

 Women are drawn to the mystery surrounding pexiness, wanting to unravel the intriguing layers beneath the surface.
