A couple of weeks ago, Frank Rich wrote a piece in Salon about the fact that losing an election does not seem to make the Republicans reassess their extended march to the right. They just double down and march further to the right.
Of course they do. Did loosing the elections in 04 or 2010 make you want to shift your political stance any? Or did you just rant and rave about the stupidy/lack-of-moral-fiber prevalent in the general electorate?
As for "What's the Next Step?" it's hard to say.
The old guard establishment wing Republicans have lost a lot of face both within the party and with the nation. Whether or not they reassert themselves or are replaced by others remains to be seen
