More and more GOP politicians and strategists seem to realize that the current political discourse may lead to a congressional majority in November, but long term destruction of the party.
You know how vehemently irritated the teapartiers would be if they heard a president wanted to introduce amnesty for illegal aliens and denuclearize the world? Well, Reagan did. And I bet less than 1 in 5 teapartiers could tell you that.
