no, the demise of the GOP is definitely not a good thing.
moderates will continue their exit, leaving the party firmly and fully in the Christian Right. The Christian Right GOP will pick Palin for 2012, Obama wins 70% of the popular vote.
Two possibilities after the 2012 landslide:
#1. moderate Republicans regroup and form a new party of the center. GOP stays and linger on as a fringe party.
#2. moderate Republicans retake the party after the complete collapse, re-establishing the two party system.

Maybe there should be more than a two party system and we should have representation like the House of Commons in the Canadian parliament.April 28, 2009 at 11:39 PM #389591ralphfurleyParticipant[quote=ocrenter]

Maybe there should be more than a two party system and we should have representation like the House of Commons in the Canadian parliament.[/quote]I’d like a “no party” system, where you vote for an individual instead of a party. This whole notion that everyone has to fit neatly into a box is partly to blame for our govt’s demise (from a citizen’s standpoint), IMHO.
