GOP takes another torpedo. This time from "The American Conservative".

How long will the S.S. GOP stay afloat with one torpedo after another?

At this point, if I were a Rethug, I'd be trying to make a raft out of the deck chairs.

2. Wow, they are running in droves now

Some are rearrainging the deck chairs on the Hindenberg, other are just throwing the chair through a window and taking the plunge before the explosion reaches them.

Faced on Sept. 11, 2001 with a great challenge, President Bush made little effort to understand who had attacked us and why—thus ignoring the prerequisite for crafting an effective response. He seemingly did not want to find out, and he had staffed his national-security team with people who either did not want to know or were committed to a prefabricated answer.

As a consequence, he rushed America into a war against Iraq, a war we are now losing and cannot win, one that has done far more to strengthen Islamist terrorists than anything they could possibly have done for themselves. Bush’s decision to seize Iraq will almost surely leave behind a broken state divided into warring ethnic enclaves, with hundreds of thousands killed and maimed and thousands more thirsting for revenge against the country that crossed the ocean to attack them.

3. This war won't be finished on 11/7, regardless of how the vote ends up.

Republicans are on the way down...11/7 will help the slide, no question. But there's a lot of pent up corruption that's been delayed until after the election. More negative stuff still to be mined. By the time Nov. '08 rolls around, I seriously wonder what will be left of the GOP.

4. About 20% of the vote for the GOP or maybe less in '08..

...when the religious right runs their own candidate for president. One thing I know for certain, their convention is going to be hell for them. A lot like ours was in 1968.

5. My advice to GOP conventioneers: bring plenty of band-aids.

You're really gonna need them this time.
