UNITED STATES: POLITICS: POLITICAL PARTIES: REPUBLICAN PARTY:
Requiem for Responsible Republicans
Requiem for Responsible Republicans
The reddest state has the most endangered one.
Published Apr 23, 2010
From the magazine issue dated May 3, 2010
Newsweek
<http://www.newsweek.com/id/236933>
Utah, the reddest state, may soon become redder because it has the
nation's most vulnerable Republican senator. Senate candidate selection
events there (May 8), in Indiana (May 4), and Kentucky (May 18) might make
May a month of Republican insurrections against candidates favored by
party leaders but considered insufficiently conservative by the rank and
file. And May may be prologue to further upheavals in California (June 8),
Colorado (Aug. 10), and Arizona and Florida (Aug. 24).
Some commentators not known for wishing conservatism well say this turmoil
bodes ill for the conservative party. And they mournfully worry that
"responsible" Republicansi.e., those who play well with Democratsare an
endangered species. But a more sanguine interpretation of the
insurrections is that they indicate conservative seriousness commensurate
with the liberals' agenda for enlarging government.
<snip>
When Florida Gov. Charlie Crist announced his Senate candidacy last May,
senior Washington Republicans instantly endorsed him. Since then, there
has been a 50-point swing against him. Marco Rubio now holds a 20-point
lead. Rubio says Crist is not a conservative. Validating Rubio's argument,
Crist recently courted the teachers' union by vetoing education reforms
favored by former governor Jeb Bush, and by former senator Connie Mack,
who disgustedly resigned as Crist's campaign manager. Crist has until
Friday to decide to use the teachers' unionand other Democratic
constituenciesas his base for running as an independent, a.k.a. a
"responsible" Republican.
