Psycho...
Tony Perkins, right now, is quite possibly the most loathsome, dangerous and stupid man in America, sorry Mr. Feith you are now irrelevant.
Loathsome: "There was clearly no mandate to shift the country to the left on social issues," Perkins said. "What Tuesday was, was a fact that people wanted change, and it's a rejection of a moderate view."
Dangerous: "What has made the conservative movement strong is when you have social conservatives, fiscal conservatives and foreign policy conservatives working together," he said. "This was the first step in what will be a long journey in rebuilding that communication and that common vision."
Stupid: Tony Perkins of the Family Research Council told CNN that conservatives need to take back control of the GOP if the party is to return to its winning ways.
"Moderates never beat conservatives. We've seen that in past elections," he said.
Why is this man getting any air time? His party, his ethos, his ideology were just eviscerated by the American public and yet he and Grover and Kristol and Krauthammer and the rest of the wankers who have been consistently wrong about everything, somehow are afforded a platform to voice their corrupt and abandoned positions and opinions.
Go ahead Tony... turn your party into a theocratic, authoritarian, regional non-entity. Let's see how that works out fer ya!

Ask 'Arry
For me, and this is purely personal, Harry Reed's tenure as Leader of the Senate has been, for the most part, perturbing. His actual ascent to his current position has always mystified me, although liberal on many issues close to progressive hearts his pro-life leanings and limp wristed management of the Senate has not endeared him to many on the left and even to a plurality in the center. The 110th Congress came to DC with a true mandate and Harry squandered the opportunity by trying to placate rather than finish off a realing minority. To a great extent his hands were tied by the oppositions unconstitutional insistence upon a sixty vote majority for all important - read Democratic - policy initiatives, the mere threat of filibuster supplanting the very need to actually sustain one, but, Harry could always have threatened the 'nuclear option' as did Frist, this reluctance, on his part, to do so or even threaten such will doom him to a lesser role in the 111th Congress.
I am perfectly OK with that if it plays out. My prefered choice to lead the senate is Hillary Clinton and I'm sure this scenario has been gamed by both Obama's team and Hillary's. She is the logical choice and perhaps the most qualified to fill that role, plus, the thought of wingnut heads exploding at the very mention of such an outcome is nothing short of delicious.
