A Dying Breed

Today's NY Times has a fascinating piece on the plight of the few remaining moderate GOP Senators.

They're a small and lonely bunch, as their party has left them for the fringes of the right wing. They get pressure from both sides, on issues from the Bolton nomination, to the "nuclear" option on filibustering judges.

Folks seem to be waking up to the fact that the Republican Party is now controlled by a bunch of extremist zealots. As it leaves mainstream America in its rearview, there will be an opportunity for Democrats. Let's hope they seize it.
