Richard Viguerie, longtime conservative fundraising whiz and chairman of something called "conservativeHQ.com" has emitted a sort of death scream of rage at the current crop of trimmers and dishwater moderates currently contending for the GOP Presidential nomination.
Apparently everyone in the running has some diresome black mark down against them...some of this is relentlessly lame issue politics at it's most miniscule and self defeating.
The fact that these yobs can't even get behind a useless grinning wingnut like Sam Brownback because of his slight deviations on immigration is a telling thing about the current state of conservative politics in America.
These guys are so dreary,fussy and whiny...the whole movement seems to be up past it's bedtime.
Normally fault lines like this would be good news for us liberals, however this is Richard Viguerie we are talking about, the biggest wingnut drama queen in DC.
The man got his start with the American Independent Party in the salad days of George Wallace and ever after liked to periodically threaten the GOP with a ultra-ringht wing third party movement if they strayed from the conservative line.
This sounds like the same old same old...their very strategic disaffection won't amount to much I assure you.
They've had a hard year, they wanna rest up for a bit and get some big name candidates to grovel that is all.
