re: #208 Dark_Falcon

The good news, such as it is, is that this is happening now, well before the election. Hopefully, it give the saner parts of the party enough time to reign in the tea party crowd,

I do not doubt that there are saner parts of the party. I question whether they have the guts to reign in the TP folks and/or the stamina to take the electoral carnage that would probably result.

True people of courage would say, “Let’s stop this garbage right now, and if we have to lose half our party’s seats in order to do it, fine, it’s for the common good.” Then I look at Boehner and McConnell, much as I’ve looked at Pelosi and Reid, and said, “There is no courage here”.
