For many, GOP stands for:
Grand old Party
God's own Party
or even
Get out and Push
For other Republicans LIKE ME it's:
Government of the People
The latter description is most closely associated with the widely held republican philosophy that the people can best govern themselves.

It stands for the Grand Old Party. Today though they might want to change it to something else - like WAD - (We Are Doomed). Its going to be so nice not to have to put up with those egotistical pawns of Big Business and the rich.
