Papantonio: The GOP Eating Itself Alive
Virtually every serious critic of the Democratic Party usually concludes that that Party suffers from a severe lack of cohesiveness and unity. They usually use the description of trying to herd a huge number of addle brained cats up a muddy hill.
On the other hand, the GOP has usually been characterized as a disciplined, unified, well-coordinated political party always structured even as they, for 40 years, have tried to lead America to the edge of an ugly abyss. We have to admit that in the past, it is their discipline and vision that has allowed them to help create such a dysfunctional democracy.
But this is a new day for the Grand, Very Old Party.
