Why We Got Spanked

Arizona Congressman Jeff Flake weighs in:

"This disastrous election we just had wasn't a result of the war or the Foley scandal, it was because we as a party need a course correction. Earmarking really came back to bite us. I think we Republicans simply lost our brand name. We are no longer considered to be the party of limited government and that came back to hurt us badly. "

Bingo. Time to shake the sh*t out of the tree and let the real leaders w/in the Republican party rise to the top.
