We can and should have different opinions on the hows and whys of what led up to these operations in the Persian Gulf and how it is being handled.
But characterizing characterizing current events as destroying the chances to retain or grow GOP power and control in mid-term elections, even saying outright that all is lost, is completely asinine.
