The GQP is a little too busy pursuing shallow, compliant celebrities for critical cabinet and governmental positions. Astonishing. Oh well, elections have consequences. Shallow celebrity is the perfect reflection of what has become important to us.You're not operating under the delusion the the modern right is pursuing limited government, are you?
While I was hoping that the new administration would intelligently moderate a bit after winning (I don't know why I keep doing that), it's entirely possible that this will end up being the abject shit show that people across the political spectrum feared.
The GQP appears to be ready for slash-and-burn-at-any-cost, their standard ham-handed Neanderthal impulse, which could open the door for the Dems to get back in and take us directly in the opposite direction. That assumes, of course, that we're going to be having national elections in the future.
The parties still somehow think that EVERYTHING ALL AT ONCE is the way to govern. We need to make government far more efficient and accountable, but I have zero (0) reason to believe that the GQP is going to do this in an intelligent and effective way. That relieves the Dems of having to look in the mirror.
