For sure. I mean, I view them as 'the fringe'. Doesn't matter which one. They have valid points on both sides but have other issues I completely disagree with.

Again, the 'Baggers aren't fringe (yet, anyway). Hell, they had a VP candidate in 2008 and dominated (in terms of numbers) the GOP Presidential primary last time.

Off the end of a Bermuda pier with any luck.

Or should that be a Cayman Island pier?

It will come down to the platform GOP adopts and how much sway the Palinites will hold. Gay rights is a settled issue so that leaves abortion and immigration as lightning rods. I am sure national security will enter into the fray because of Iraq and ISIS.

Back in Oklahoma, we had a little Surrey with fringe on top.
