Both Parties On Verge of Change?

Voters' Anti-Establishment Mood Bites Both Parties

It is a good thing. But narrative will be: The GOP is becoming more, gasp..cough..., radically conservative (because of the Teaparty) – starting with center-right columnists like Brooks and moving down the line to the left. These people need to dust off their beltway bubbles.

The majority of the country is in an anti-Washington, anti-incumbent mood. The GOP, if it wants to make historic gains in 2010 – and make a run at the White House in 2012 – had better understand this. It’s candidates can’t simply rely on the unpopularity of the policies of the party in power.

No, I think that the majority of the people are pretty upset with the status quo that has plagued both parties for many years. I think alot of people are tired of trying to solve the nations problems by using the same tired rhetoric and would like to see some fresh ideas from NEW people.
