Seven conservatives on why the GOP should lose in 2006

Now seven prominent conservatives dare to speak the unspeakable: They hope the Republicans lose in 2006. Well, let’s be diplomatic and say they’d prefer divided government—soon. (Perhaps that formulation will fool Dennis Hastert.) Of course, all of them wish for the long-term health of conservatism, and most are loyal to the GOP. What they also believe, however, is that even if a Speaker Pelosi looms in the wings, sometimes the best remedy for a party gone astray is to give it a session in the time-out chair.

Interesting essays. A little too wonky for me; if we’re going to go there, I’d rather point straight at Iraq (which some of them do), and emphasize that.

    You know, I kind of agree. The GOP has gone astray. However, I don’t know if I want the Democrats back. Isn’t that like curing a headache by chopping the head?

    SayUncle, John,

    I sloppily picked up the title unchanged. I’m uncertain about all this. I should have added a question mark or used different words.

    The essays were interesting, that’s all.

    Uncertain describes my condition as well. Hey, I received an email from a friend which had Newt’s 11 step plan for unscrewing the GOP. I’ll email it to you. I think you will be surprised by what he says.

    Oh, I almost forgot,”Uncle”.
