Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Take A Stroll With Me

Peruse these editorials, including work by Robert Costa and Ross Douthat show that sentient Republicans know this is not redounding well to their benefit.

Even Grover Norquist is pissed at these nihilists.

But as public opinion solidifies against the GOP, I still can't see an incentive structure that brings the GOP leadership back to sanity.
