Joe Klein: The GOP Has Become a Party of Nihilists

Time's Joe Klein has a good essay on the decline of the Republican Party, which has too many backbenchers afraid to stand up to the blowhards and crazies on the extreme Right.

Klein's title gets the thesis started, but there's more to be said. Read it all here: The GOP Has Become a Party of Nihilists.

I read that, too, and Klein is spot on. Nihilists. How is it that everyone hasn't caught on to that?

But Joe has his problems, too: No, Wait, I Know This One--the Answer to "Who Does Joe Klein Think is the Crazy Left?" Glenn Greenwald, for fifty points.
