Hell I just drove from FL back to New England this weekend and some of the obvious right wing attack ads on the billboard along the highway were just sickening. The GOP has lost it's way but as long as "normal Republicans" allow the crazies to run amok it will only get worse.

When you say "not every" Republican believes the bullshit that gets spewed by the vocal minority in your party, well the ones that don't are just as much of a problem as the ones that do. Right now the "normal" Republicans are allowing the lunatics to run the asylum by not putting the crazies in check.
