Marginalized Republican Party? Sounds Good to me.

Christine Whitman, former EPA administrator (one of many who have resigned under Bush), is apparently putting out a book about retaking the Republican Party for moderates. In the book, she will reportedly discuss how she was constantly at odds with the Bush administration.

Her book, It's My Party Too: The Battle for the Heart of the GOP and the Future of America, warns about the danger of the Republican Party swinging too far to the right. She says, "A clear and present danger Republicans face today is that the party will now move so far to the right that it ends up alienating centrist voters and marginalizing itself."

Sounds like a good plan to me! I say, let the Republican Party continue swinging so wildly to the right that sane Americans will be forced to take a more moderate approach. How does the Democratic Party grow? Just let the Republicans screw up enough.
