Chris Christie hopes to teach Republicans a lesson

Chris Christie hopes to teach Republicans a lesson
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/chris-chri...05963.html

Quote: But despair is one of the few things that unites today's fractured GOP. Republicans much more conservative than Romney share his basic diagnosis from the 47% speech. It's an open question whether the juxtaposition of Christie's landslide and Cuccinelli's burial will be enough to convince Republicans that broad popularity is possible and worth compromising for.

Christie has been making that case explicitly, telling voters they need to stop expecting so much purity and look for politicians who will make compromises to move the country forward.

Will they learn? I doubt it. Many Republicans hate Christie for not being conservative enough and praising Obama for the federal help after Hurricane Sandy. All indications are that the GOP keeps wanting to move further to the right when the country is moving toward the center.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

RE: Chris Christie hopes to teach Republicans a lesson
If Christie wants to teach Republicans a lesson, he should first try to observe whether or not they can actually learn.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
