Stupid is as stupid does... (updated)

Bob Novak is ruthlessly honest, again...

... In private conversation, Republican members of Congress blame Majority Leader John Boehner and Majority Whip Roy Blunt in no small part for their midterm election debacle. Yet, either Boehner, Blunt or both are expected to be returned to their leadership posts Friday. For good reason, the GOP often is called "the stupid party." ...

Listen to analysis from Hewitt, Medved and Prager here.

Mike Pence for... anything.

I'm with Harvard Law student Ben Shapiro who says "the vaunted Republican Congress turned out to be all hat, no cattle" in his latest column:

What happens next? A return to conservatism for the new Republican minority - a minority that is only a minority because it abandoned conservatism to begin with. A revival for President Bush, despite predictions to the contrary - for the first time in a long time, he can credibly target Democrats for inaction and radicalism. Don't expect Congress to remain Democratic for long. Americans put the Republican Party in the repair shop. When it emerges, it will be stronger for its foray into minority status.

I'm also with trembling Doug Patton...

...it is increasingly difficult to see a bright spot in a future that includes human cloning, gay marriage, continued abortion on demand and an open border policy that threatens to erase our national sovereignty.

In the words of Jefferson, I tremble for my country.

Fight for a conservative rebound.

Update: More stupidity. Michelle agrees. Steele would have been great!
