re: #72 Varek Raith

Fuck the GOP.
I’ve had it with this bullshit. You want my vote in the future?
Dump the socons.
Dump the anti-science loons.
Dump the Austrian economics gold mongers.
Dump the nutters.

I think that’s what it’s really going to take, so many people getting fed up with the GOP and just walking away that they have no choice but to eject the loonies to become electable again. At the same time, sometimes the lunacy reaches critical mass, such that the party begins to convince itself that it’s not the loonies that are holding it down, but that they simply aren’t catering to enough loonies.

When that happens, the disease has become terminal and all you can do for the party is be merciful and pull the plug.
