re: #261 deranged cat

I believe what people have been saying about the GOP strategy: good for short term but catastrophic in the long term. (can anybody remember where people have said that? im trying to find some of the articles now)

The idea that people would vote for the GOP now after all this bad crazyness, or that they’re expected to make gains this November based off this bad crazyness is mind boggling to me.

That’s just it. The moderate middle isn’t going to vote for the GOP this November, they are going to vote against the DNC, in all likelihood. This will be seen as an endorsement of the current set of GOP memes, and will seal the ultimate destruction of the GOP. That’s not good for moderates, it isn’t good for (rational moderate) conservatives, and it isn’t good for liberals. It is a wholly destructive process, and its sad.
