Upon getting shellacked in the elections, Republicans wasted no time in announcing that they must change and adopt a "friendlier" stance on issues such as immigration, abortion, taxes, and spending. Think for a moment what a disgusting admission of nihilism this is. It is an admission that power was never a means to an end. Power was the end. Principles and the rhetoric surrounding them were mere means.
It's not as if this was a giant mystery before the elections, but like so many other areas of modern life, even the pretense of legitimacy has been ripped away.
