What will calm raging GOP waters?

Posted September 01, 2013 4:27 am

What a cat fight in the Republican Party. Our two-party representative democracy would seem to require that each party be, to a functional degree, a “big-tent” party.

Looks like social-issue ultraconservatives, government-hating Libertarians, big-business plutocrats, anti-tax autocrats, and deficit-reduction fanatics are not resolving their differences. I don’t know what balm might calm the turbulent waters.
