  NeoMugwump — Authority: 405
  As Ive been reading all the blog posts about the so-called "purity test" resolution for future GOP candidates, one question has been going around and around in my brain: Why do we care? I mean, why should moderate Republicans, who this resolution is aimed at be concerned? And if we are concerned, then what do we ...

  WASHINGTON — This is the paradox of the moment: President Obama’s speech on Afghanistan and his subsequent jobs summit underscored why it’s essential to get a health care bill done quickly.

• Fighting Extremism With Civility (Guest Voice)

  
  The Moderate Voice — Authority: 706

• The Spillists

  
  Pollytics — Authority: 469
  I’ve been a bit hesitant to write anything over the fiasco of this week – when Kevin Andrews calls for a spill to run for the leadership and over 40% of the party room supports him, the time for any sort of rational analysis has long since bolted.

• Moderates need to get over their Obama embarrassment -- but how?

  
  Libertarian Blog — Authority: 137
  A big part of the Republican split, in my opinion, has to do with the fact that Moderates dont know how to save face after voting for Obama. As the Obama administration begins to slip in popularity, and as Obamas agenda is being revealed for what it is -- progressive and bad for the country -- Moderates are put in an ...

  The Moderate Voice — Authority: 706
  WASHINGTON — When there is no good solution to a problem, a president has three options. One is to avoid the problem. The second is to pick the least bad of the available options.

• Nothing new about this tactic

  
  WesternFront America — Authority: 139
  In their best lets-you-and-them-fight mode, the bought-and-sold Obama worshipping mainstream media is advising the Republican Party to surrender to its tiny left-leaning wing they call the moderates and allow them to set the GOPs agenda.

  The Lewis Crusade — Authority: 107
  Chapter 32 of The Way of Perfection is a profound treatise on suffering, focusing on the idea that, when we pray "Thy will be done," we are, like Jesus and Mary, assenting to Gods will, not just in the good stuff but in the bad stuff, and the suffering we will endure. Let me put it in another way. Consider, ...

• Governing From The Correct Middle

  
  Caffeinated Thoughts — Authority: 139
  Let me preface this post by stating what most who know me would say is obvious:  I’m VERY conservative.  I am a self-branded “Republitarian” with strong libertarian roots and a Biblical worldview that places me firmly in the “social conservative” camp.
