Republican civil war: Fox News dumps Karl Rove & Dick Morris

[A Theist]

They should keep him on. A Republican civil war is good for the rest of the country.

That depends on who wins.

If the Republicans get crazier and even further to the right but still manage to get enough political power to enact legislation, they could be VERY dangerous.

That being said, the Republican party was a very weak party from just before World War II until Regan revitalized the party. They lost most the presidential elections and they were generally the minority in congress/senate. I hope this happens and, honestly, I can see it happening. The Republican party has hitched their trailer to the 'angry old white guy vote.' Problem is, that's a dead end demographic. The ranks of democrats are going to swell because they're appealing more to groups that are going to be involve in future elections, namely immigrants, hispanic people and, most importantly, the youth vote. As the older vote dies off, the younger vote becomes the older voters and if they're already solidly alligned with democrats, it's going to be an uphill battle to get them to vote Republican.

You dems are celebrating way too early....I heard this same song and dance from the Democrats, that they needed to reorganize, needed to move to the middle, needed to change leadership...., when they lost the House in the 2010 mid-terms, when G.W. won re-election, and when Clinton lost the Senate and House to the Republicans in the mid-terms of his first term in office....besides it's very difficult to unseat a sitting incumbent president....after Barack is gone I doubt that there will still be the same enthusiasm among minorities and younger voters to get out and vote...
