I am sick and tired of centrist Republican groups that have been the true heart of the party since Abraham Lincoln, cowering to the self righteous right wing that has led this country in the wrong direction.

I have a hard time putting the man who suspended habeus corpus into the centrist category. And then didn’t the “radical” Republicans take control for a while. I don’t know, I’m not historian, but it doesn’t sound quite right.

Their was very little common ground between the religious right and the center of the road republicans, but instead there was a marraige of electoral convenience. When the Republicans gained congress and the presidency, those irreconcialable differences have come out. They cant win that power struggle because too many moderates have left the party. Sad but true. The centrist republicans are moderate independents in denial.

Personally, I'm not planning on voting Republican this fall - I may swap party affiliation to vote in the Dem primary for a few reasonable candidates. This country needs gridlock, now.
