Emergency! Emergency!

Stop whatever you are doing and watch this. No, no… wait. Go get a Kleenex first, and maybe a fresh Depends if your prone to a little leakage whilst you laugh. Then click.

Jane Devin opines that the Christian Right killed the GOP. I think her analysis is pretty accurate and reflects the path to the sad state the party finds itself in today where fear is about the only thing left it has to offer. But I hope it’s only badly wounded, not dead. You see, I’m already fearing that the Democrats, with a President and filibuster-proof Congressional majority will quickly spin into the same hole of corruption and power madness that befell the GOP under Bush. We need a balance to the Democrats, but the current GOP is not usefully that.

This is why it is so important that the GOP go up in flames next week. If they only lose the Presidency, they’ll pin that on McCain. They need to loose wide and far. Only with that scorching will they have an opportunity to return to their fiscally conservative pre-Reagan roots and rise from the ashes. And then there’s the matter of earning back our trust… but one step at a time.
