It seems that the GOP’s current stance on social, cultural and religious issues is finally managing to weed out…well pretty much everyone who has an actual though process:
Republicans have lost an enormous amount of support among upscale voters, basically just breaking even among those with household incomes above $50,000 a year, a traditional GOP stronghold. Similarly, McCain’s losing to Obama among college graduates and voters who have attended some college underscores how much the GOP franchise is in trouble. My hunch is that the Republican Party’s focus on social, cultural, and religious issues — most notably, fights over embryonic-stem-cell research and Terri Schiavo — cost its candidates dearly among upscale voters.
Sadly, judging by the popular vote totals there’s still a whole crapload of them left.
