I think Chuck Hagel ought to know his party better than this. They aren’t going to find a new center and this isn’t a storm that is just going to blow through. A bunch of whack-a-doodles are going to get elected, some of them to six-year terms. And then they’re going to nominate for president someone who is either certifiably insane or who pretends to be. That’s what is going to happen. Michael Steele is going to be the most successful RNC chair in history. The Republicans will think they’ve found the secret elixir for winning power: Go crazy.
And the best outcome of it all will be if they only grow powerful enough to prevent us from tackling any problems rather than adding a whole new list of them.
Unless we turn things around in the next two months, that’s what our future will bring.
