I liked the title that NewsMax gave this, they just said 'Republicrats' and that's the entire title. I also liked the Rutgers professor who says the republicans have gone native.

But, I thought the Republicans can do no wrong.

It is unrealistic to expect either major party in Congress to depart from conventional wisdom to attempt to change public opinion in seminal ways. It happens on occasion under stress, or with someone like Newt, but it is rare. Typically that is done, if at all, by a president.

I see this thread's not participating in the fund-raising efforts. That's nice.
But the only good thing anyone can say about George Bush is that his name is not Bill Clinton, Al Gore or Hillary Clinton.
George Bush's father did a lot of damage to the american economy. Anyone who looks closely at his record should conclude that it was done with malice. Nobody could accidentally do that damage. It was malice instead on his part.
The Bush/Clinton/Bush axis of bad trade policy is driving manufacturing out of business in america and bringing on a depression.
We've got to do better. I recommend we vote 'no' on every single incumbent who displeases us regardless of the party affiliation. We should not be re-electing 98% of incumbents. When we do that the will of the people doesn't matter. If we only re-elected 30%, then the people would rule this country because the politicians would fear the people. We need to throw the republicans bums and the democrat bums both out of office routinely. Sending them back just because they're not a dem is in today's politics a sure recipe for disaster.

Good post, Red.
For most pols of either party, it really is about power and percs.
At least 10 current House Republicans have reneged on term-limit pledges.
We call it a lie
