Just Can't Get It Right

An interesting thing on Culture11 (mostly, & a bit about Big Ho, which isn't really worth the effort to write about). We liked this segment because schadenfreude is about our only pleasure.

[I]n 2008 the Republican Party awoke to a world in which it was losing every politically important demographic battle and had essentially ceded the field on issues like education, where it hadn’t contributed a new policy idea since the school voucher, and energy, where the best plan it could come up with was a renewed push for offshore drilling.

Running out of supporters & ideas.
