The Tea Party may have lost the battle, but they’ve won the war in shifting the GOP to the far right. There’s more extremists seeking office, and winning those offices in GOP strongholds than ever.

Heck, for all the talk about Boehner trying to placate the establishment GOP, he’s run the GOP to the hard right, allowing the GOP shutdown last year, and his caucus has done everything imaginable to thwart the operation of government.

The investigation in to Benghazi is another symptom of this extremism. I’m figuring that Pelosi and the Democrats may well boycott the whole thing, knowing that it’ll be a sham investigation looking at nothing but trying to score talking points for use in 2016 or to set up impeachment talk. If any Democrats sit on that panel, it’ll give Boehner and the GOP extremists the ability to claim that the panel and whatever it concludes the veneer of bipartisanship, when the reality is that it’s a witch hunt to find fault where there isn’t, and ignoring the facts and information already known to all involved (well, to all who care to know about facts and evidence, that is).
