California as Bellwether, for the GOP and for Us All

Quote:
One of the reasons for California going with open primaries, with top two vote getters on the November ballot (adopted through the initiative process), is because the GOP would punish any member who stepped out of line and was accused of working with the Democrats. Same with removing redistricting control from the Legislature.


Quote:
Having worked for the County of Orange for 15 years, my take isn't that the California GOP is resigned to losing. It's just that they hold ideological purity higher than election results and have the true believer's faith that if they hold firm their time will come.
Today's GOP has many similarities with the communist and other rigid dogma type parties in that they require their members to continually prove their fidelity to the "cause" even if it keeps changing.

I only got about half way through it before I was overwhelmed with the authors delusional lines of reasoning.

The underlying point - that GOP of today values "ideological purity" above anything else is undeniably spot-on.

I dont see how you get to that point. The GOP has governed like crap in the past because it didnt stick to its principles.

I can see how it might be frustrating for a liberal who sees that the GOP often adheres to ideology only when doing so makes life inconvenient for Dems , especially if it will play well in the next election. You might even call it cynical and self serving.

But its not like the Dems do any differently. Nor do the Dems make things easy. As far as the Obama vs House goes... Boehner is actually a lot more of a pushover, and more moderate than Newt. Obama just to incompetent to deal with him.
