I am rapidly becoming a big fan of Megan McCardle's McArdle's blog. I don't always agree with what I read, but it's always well-written and extremely thought-provoking.
This post from late last week really captured my imagination. Guest poster Jon Henke listed four factions within the Republican Party -- Progressive Republicans, Goldwater Republicans, Bush Republicans, and Status Quo Republicans -- and wondered aloud which would be alpha in the years ahead.
I have some quibbles with the four factions Henke listed. Bush and Status Quo Rs are basically the same group. I'm also sure a few others could be added.
But that's largely beside the point. The only thing these four groups really seem to have in common is that they all use the name "Republican." Other than than, the only real reason they have to work together is that they are opposed what each sees as comming from the Democratic Party.
