This is townhall.com. I don't think the writer wants the GOP to go down in flames. But in order to fix any structural problems that existed in the party, mixing it up is probably not only a good thing or a necessary thing, but inevitable. Unhappy voters and politicians bring about change and happy-go-lucky ones don't. Even with the state the Bush administration and the Republican minority is in, I think the Democrats could blissfully walk into some deep pits as well, particularly if events overtake what's happening within the beltway. If Bush and the GOP were right to obsess over the war on terror up to Nov 2006, that's another reason to expect the winds to change very quickly.
Rebuilding is what the headline should be about. Not the collapse there of, the GOP. I for one am tired of the sensational play on words our so called brothers in the media use, the habit of the left wing MSM.
Headlines can damage moral, rebuilding gives incentive.
I stand by my post.
