I was watching Lawrence O'Donnell yesterday, where they discussed the ramifications of the impending GOP anhilation in the November election:
If Rmoney loses to Obama, that results in the GOP saying "Damitall, we STILL haven't moved far enough to the right!
Frothster losing would at least show the GOP that they have already moved too far to the right, possibly opening up our government to actually having an "Overton Window" again.
The possibility of a GOP victory, from any potential candidate, is too frightening for me to seriously contemplate.
