The Enemy of my Enemy is my Friend
From today's NYT in reference to tomorrow's Kentucky primary to find the Republican nominee to replace Senator Jim Bunning (my childhood idol): "Establishment Republicans — including Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the minority leader, former Vice President Dick Cheney and the Chamber of Commerce — have united in opposition to Mr. Paul, but optimism was diminishing that their candidate, Trey Grayson, could prevail."
To which I can only say: Go Mr. Paul, go!
This is a perfect example of why those of us who lean left politically should not dismiss the Tea Partiers out-of-hand. Not only do I agree with a (very) few of their ideas, if they weaken the right-wing establishment, then they will help Dems and the country as a whole.
