There's been incredible strain there since the right wing neocons have been successful in pushing their agenda....but this in fact is a key part of their formula for success...
We had some bleak chance they'd go in some sane direction with McCain...but he was chewed up and spit out...and has his head up his ass about the war effort....so count him out. His random acts of sanity are not worth even taking notice of anymore.
Who else has any chance of taking the party in a moderate direction? I've been most impressed with things that Bucannan has said recently....the only one I've seen outspoken against the war and honest enough to admit that it just didn't work out....but he's got to be considered a waco at this point.
But you see....the neocon rightwing psycho-religious movement is all about dividing the country into a moral civil war....and perpetuating a state of uneasiness and continued stratification of our society.
They've carefully mapped out exactly what it means for their voting base....and it looks good....because people can then "vote their heart" (not their minds) on a number of clever neocon moral convolutions....which ensures them a powerful voting base....especially in a presidential election.
It's entirely anti-American and destructive for this country...but the divide allows them to maintain control....a feat truly impressive when you consider that they represent less than 1% of the country.
So being unsettled, nerotic, on edge, or even "in denial" is all part of their generic formula to keep 2 sides fighting it out for years to come.....with jerk offs like cheney and others laughing their way to the bank.
