Does this mean we can drop the pretense there's a debate going on in this country between two points of view? As the banners and the blog chatter show, there is no debate.

Yesterday it was the Beck/Palin/Limbaugh fringe. Now, after the Bachmann Tea Party and the NY-23 election, it's the RNC itself. Time for the media to redraw the lines. There is no left and right. There is only wrong and right and Steele's Stormfront are on the wrong side.
