The GOP is Still Formidable
The GOP isn't chasing it's tail at all.
It is smoothly moving towards the nomination of an effective and popular candidate.
In the meantime, the Democrats will have an enjoyable, and no doubt increasingly bitter contest that may continue into August.
To an electorate that basically hates the idea of people 'on the same side' arguing and attacking one another; the contrast with the focused disciplined Republicans united behind McCain will be stark.
Should the Democrats nominate Hillary Clinton in August, McCain will probably be the narrow favorite.
This is a worrying time for progressives not just in the USA, but around the world who are desperate for change in the world's most powerful nation.
