Reply #10: The infighting will get worse [View All]

[salin]

w/in the factions of the GOP - not just the talibornigan faction. Either a new strand arises that is somewhat moderated from the extreme strands that are currently ruling (extreme neocon; extreme supply siders; extreme religious right... all of the parts of the GOP have drifted to their extreme right ends) - or the infighting goes on and on to a point where some other party altogether emerges. Ironically - initially the emboldening each of the extreme factions made them stronger politically... but by each strand getting so self-righteous, demanding and emboldened (and pitted against one another) - there is little moderation to be found - and it is the very reason it becomes unlikely that just loosening any single extreme strand (that is the talibornagain, or the neocons) hold over the party will solve their self-destruction woes.
