Maybe there have been corrupt wolves in sheeps clothing... but the word "republican" and the word "democrat"... the "republic" is the very few set of rules which usually limit what the government can do, and the "democracy" is all the oodles and oodles and oodles of legal code on the books. So, if the parties respected their names, republicans would be for smaller gov, and democrats for more gov. I would say modern day "libertarians" resemble the republican name most truly.
