Uniparty Ping.
Because apparently the ideas of small government aren’t worth fighting for.
(Why would we need repubs to fight democrats If the only government in our lives was the post office? )

The moderate Republicans arer a party of “Bold Pastels”, yeah, that will sell....
They want to Compromise, especially their principles, so I guess they want to Compromise their Principles....
Good ping — thanks!
This is a fascinating article. I think the most telling part is this quote: “Where once the tea party was an asset to the GOP, it has now become a liability.” I view that as less the authors opinion and more simply reporting the attitude that he encountered.
Several of us have been suggesting that this is no mistake. That rather than trying to keep the gop wing of the uniparty intact, perhaps the calculus has already been run and the decision has been made that it would be better to have a gop without conservatives in it. And if you’re going to conduct a purge, what better way to do that than to have conservatives self purge themselves?
That goes a long way in explaining things like the cochroach campaign in MS. If your objective is to drive a class of people out of an organization, then engaging in conduct that outrages that class is a pretty good way to do it.
