Tea Party Choice, Sharron Angle, Scrambles in Taking on Harry Reid
It’s a strange political environment right now. Republicans are going to win a lot of elections in November, and that should mean that as a party, they get more moderate, right? It’s the same problem the Democrats suffer from now: they have a broad coalition that includes representatives and senators from conservative districts, so liberal ideas like, say, including a public option in the health care bill tend to be dead on arrival.
It seems like the opposite could be true this time. Republicans will make gains, but their caucus could very well be more conservative, not less, because there will be so many of these tea partiers around. Weird.

In whatever kind of a “race” life may be, I have very abruptly become a finalist.
