Mother of Mercy, is this the end of the GOP?

MANIFESTO

A second magazine's current issue's cover article has to do with the end of the Republican Party. This time it's Harper's (link not yet available).

Perhaps it's situations like this one that have reporters hearing the death knell.

At the risk of stating the bloody obvious, it's pretty clear that those Republicans who hitched their wagons to President Petulant's star when it was ascending couldn't extricate themselves quickly enough when it became obvious to virtually everybody (as long as they didn't live in Kansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, or Utah) that the policies of the Bushies were anti-middle and lower classes, anti-environmental, and essentially anti-American.

These morons truly thought that as long as they cut taxes, they could also cut veterans' benefits, environmental allotments, and any number of social programs with impunity. Polls are indicating they were egregiously incorrect.
