The only hope the R's ever had was to UNITE behind a candidate EARLY ON. This thing's got a lot of ugliness left, and the R's are eating their young before our eyes.

I don't think it was a record final voter turnout, either, which was one thing the Dems didn't want to see.

Have you ever seen a glummer or grouchier bunch of presidential aspirants than the current GOP crop? You’d be working those frown lines, too, I guess, if you thought, as Rick Santorum does, that this year’s race will decide “whether we will be a free people.” Or believed, as Michele Bachmann told Sean Hannity on Monday, that Iran might go nuclear before Inauguration Day.

I've never seen a bunch that wanted government to take over our lives and dictate what we can and cannot do so badly, on a national level. It's the John Birch Society writ large.
