And she’ll be saying, “At least I made the history books.”

It’s always been about her, not the politics or anyone or anything else. She’s a shining example of the Age of Narcissism.

That’s unfortunately true.

We shall have to wait to see what happens this November in the mid-terms, but I’m getting the feeling that it’s not going to be so good for the GOP, much less the Tea Party movement.

I’m still thinking the Democrats will retain the Senate, and the House will still be in GOP hands, though perhaps with a few less seats on the GOP side - the margin will be closer. Who ends up as Speaker when the next Congress begins I can’t guess.

There is one thing that could throw my calculation off, and that is comprehensive immigration reform, which is loathed by the GOP’s base. If the GOP passes that later this year, that could effect the November mid-terms as the GOP base, and especially the Tea Partyers, will be so furious that they’ll sit out the election out of sheer spite. These really are the types who’ll cut off their nose to spite their face; and should that happen, the Republicans may well be in big trouble come November.

Will the GOP leadership push forward for CIR? I don’t know, but they very well could - politics is a strange business, after all.
