John Boehner: '1 In 3 Chance' Republicans Lose Control Of House

Tuesday, April 24, 2012


Moderate Republicans, in general.  Like Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe.   Lisa Murkowski.  Former governors Christine Todd Whitman, William Weld, George Pataki, Jon Huntsman.  Republicans-turned-Independents Lincoln Chaffee, Michael Bloomberg.   Rudy Guiliani.  Colin Powell.  Joseph Cao.  Amo Houghton.  

Even Dick Lugar.  There are even conservative Republicans who could be considered 'normal'.  Being fiscally conservative, socially libertarian and for small/limited government doesn't make them extremist or crazy.  Just wrong.  Remember that real conservatives opposed Bush-Cheney on going into Iraq.

There are "normal" conservatives, in front of and 'behind the camera', including those who pander to the Tea Party, adopting extreme positions in order to keep in the Tea Party's favor and keep their jobs. I don't like any of them or their politics, but they're not fanatical extremists in the Bellvue (mental) Hospital sense.   

Just curious: Did you vote/Would you vote, for Ronald Reagan?  At this point, Barack Obama is farther to the right than Reagan and Richard Nixon.
