I'm not surprised. The divide between economic conservatives and social conservatives is about to become untenable and the economic ones will throw the socials under the bus in a heart beat for harming their image... and that's not even getting into the huge divide between establishment republicans and their constitutes, who have basically decided that they need to commit career suicide to advance the cause of conservatism. It is quickly reaching the point where the biggest obstacle the Republicans have will be their own party base simply removing them from office when they can't/won't do what they were elected for. If we're going to get viable third parties, this is basically the only way it can happen.The calls are starting to pipe up for McConnell to resign as well. Might be looking at a full blown revolt in the republican party.
The Democrat/liberal is in a better position, but it's tides are turning: the public is turning out in droves for Bernie Sanders, undermining Hillary's steam. However, Bernie's another dreamer like Obama: he's electable but too soft handed to actually accomplish much. Hillary has the will to get her work done and knows where the bodies are buried so she can actually make it happen, but no one likes her enough to actually want her to WIN. The end result is we might actually pick a candidate who can't win and hand the election to the conservatives, despite their completely laughable array of candidates.
Being in agreement isn't enough anymore, you actually need to make it happen now and he's been kind of worthless in doing that lately.Huh, and here I thought the great turtle from Kentucky had been pretty much lock step with the party in general
