Steven Kornacki points out that since Eisenhower, a significant part of the GOP's base has been rabidly opposed to any of the succeeding Democratic presidents and I'd add that even Eisenhower had problems with some of these freaks. Andrew Sullivan observes that the freaks will probably not budge: "Since their ideology is all about creative destruction...what do they have to lose by wreaking havoc?" According to Nate Silver, the freaks are pretty safe in their congressional districts, so right now it seems likely that freaks will lead us into another recession. :-(

You are too intent on getting the
TPs and not intent enough on delineating bankster-bailout voting Obama's proposed sellouts of "entitlements." Krugman mustered this...
"Maybe Obama wimps out — in which case he’s effectively surrendered the presidency to Grover Norquist;"....
That a liberal can at this late date still be expressing doubt about Obama-in-the-clinch pretty much says it all.
When I realized that not even one bankster was going to prison, I pretty much gave up on any solid liberal fiscal policies.
