It will be the first election in a long time where social issues have worked in their favor....
And this year was supposed to be a lock for the GOP.
It's an interesting paradigm shift.
Unfortunately one not likely to affect real change in the GOP, both with regard to leadership and the rank and file – opposition to privacy rights and equal protection rights for same-sex couples, for example, will continue to be a litmus test for republican politicians.
‘Legitimate rape’ and pregnancy resulting from rape being ‘god’s will’ will continue to be themes adhered to by many on the right.
