Ornicus has a very good post on the attempts by the GOP to marginalize recent foot-in-mouth Republicans such as Santorum and Lott in order to attract the fence-sitting Republicans. Snippet:
"Thus we get potentially the worst of both worlds: a dominant GOP that continues to attract and empower extremists even as it effectively markets itself to the broader mainstream as having purged itself of such elements. This is only made possible by two things: 1) a compliant press that functions more as a propaganda organ for the White House than as a civic-minded watchdog; and 2) a passive Democratic party that is reluctant to attract the wrath of the right-wing propaganda machine by confronting the Cro-Magnons who continue to run the show for the Republicans in the House and Senate."Read the entire article HERE.
