Well, she's got an interesting idea there...
I don't know if I agree, but we'd certainly benefit it free-market health care reform would become more a central part of the debate.
How about we combine a no-prisoners lasse faire capitalism platform, with trade nationalism.
You’ll get the 50% of Americans who are themselves capitalists - and the workers who either have been, or are worried about, losing their jobs overseas.
It’s a knockout combination.

I agree.
“We need to put free-market health-care reform, not tax cuts, at the core of our economic message”
Fine—but how does that result in the R party “evolving”. It is simply a slight shift in emphasis. As far as gays, fine, intelligent gays are and have been quite an important part of the R party and that should not change. Neither should the R party oust people who disagree with the behavior of some gays. The D and R parties both are political parties that by their nature must represent a wide array of people that in some ways may conflict at the edges. That is the nature of people and parties. Of course, that isn’t a change or “evolution” either. However, the trends that are described in this article are trends pushed by the D party to damage America. Why not recognize that and realize that “evolving” is what resulted in the R party and the nation being damaged and that trying to shrug along with the trend will only result in your being second place to the D party as that party continues to cement its permanent domination of the nation’s government.
As far as Rush’s statements, if 100 million people dislike him then 100 million people have no sense or have only listened to lies about him. Listen to his recent CPAC speech and tell me what is so abhorrent. Everything he said seems perfectly normal and sensible to me—at least what I grew up thinking was perfectly normal.
