re: I don't think republicans realize how bad off they are for next election cycles

Unfortunately, most conservatives/Republicans have notoriously short attentions spans.

It's not attention span. It's that the GOPe leadership purposely forces a choice between a hard-core Dem and a GOPe candidate. They use RNC funding to prop up their guy and he pretends to be a reasonable Conservative. So, conservative-minded people reluctantly vote for the GOPe candidate as the lesser of two evils. The GA runoff shows the limits of this GOPe strategy.

I think many people now realize both parties are selling us out so this cycle will be interesting -- especially the primaries. Will we push for change? Or, forget these lessons and accept the well-funded GOPe candidate.
