"The conflict for upstate New York confirms only how quickly a right has devolved in to a wacky, overly suspicious cult which is as fervent to eat a own as it is to destroy Obama. The movements undisputed leaders, Palin as well as Beck, conjunction of whom have what Palin once called a 'actual responsibilities' of open office, would gladly see a Republican Party die upon a cranky of worried ideological purity."

So wrote New York Times columnist Frank Rich in a square which won't appear in imitation until Sunday, though was obviously dictated to scare a Dickens out of a Times' couple of regressive readers upon Halloween.

After all, in his "The G.O.P. Stalinists Invade Upstate New York," Rich unapologetically pronounced no make a difference who wins in Tuesday's choosing for a House deputy from New York's 23rd district, "the Republicans have been a sure losers":

No make a difference what a formula in which competition upon Tuesday, a Republicans have been a sure losers. This could be a gift which keeps upon giving to a Democrats by 2010, as well as perhaps beyond. [...]

That this rural setting could turn a G.O.P. killing field, attracting an all-star expel of combatants led by Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, William Kristol as well as Newt Gingrich, is a grounds out of a Depression-era screwball comedy. But such farces have turn a normal for a regressive transformation whether a participants have been dressing up in full tea celebration drag or not.

Imagine that. The New York Times has a columnist which essentially gets paid to discuss it readers no make a difference what happens, Republicans lose.

Talk about a gift which keeps upon giving for liberals! Makes you consternation if a Times has someone in a sports territory which will discuss it New Yorkers a Yankees won a World Series no make a difference what happens upon a field.

Sadly, Rich was only removing warmed up:

The conflict for upstate New York confirms only how quickly a right has devolved in to a wacky, overly suspicious cult which is as fervent to eat a own as it is to destroy Obama. The movements undisputed leaders, Palin as well as Beck, conjunction of whom have what Palin once called a actual responsibilities of open office, would gladly see a Republican Party die upon a cranky of worried ideological purity.

Wow. Sarah Palin as well as Glenn Beck "would gladly see a Republican Party die upon a cranky of worried ideological purity?"

Actually, in a past dual vital choosing cycles, a Republican Party has died upon a cranky of liberalism as it gave behind a White House as well as both chambers of Congress foolishly meditative a solid move to a left would good it.

Now which real conservatives have been standing up to take behind a reins of a Party in decline since George W. Bush was re-elected in 2004, magnanimous media members only can't stand it:

The rights embrace of Hoffman is a double-barreled self-murder for a G.O.P. On Saturday, a smashed Scozzafava dangling her campaign, further scrambling a race. Its still conceivable which a Democratic candidate could constraint a seat a Republicans should own. But a even better for Democrats if Hoffman wins. Punch-drunk with this triumph, a right will redouble a support of primary challengers to 2010 G.O.P. candidates they courtesy as impure. Thats bad headlines for even a Republican as regressive as Kay Bailey Hutchison, whose primary competition in a Texas governors race, a obligatory Rick Perry, floated a possibility of secession during a teabagger convene in Apr as well as fast endorsed Hoffman upon Thursday.

Amazing. Conservatives across a fruited plain cheered Saturday's announcement by Scozzafava, though Rich saw this as a defeat for a Right:

The some-more rightists who win G.O.P. primaries, a larger a Democrats prospects subsequent year...Writing in 1964 of which eras homogeneous to todays tea celebration cells, a historian Richard Hofstadter celebrated which a John Birch Societys ruthless prosecution of a own ideological war often mimicked a strategy of a Communist enemies.

The same could be pronounced of Beck, Palin as well as their acolytes. Though they all a time collate a boss to assorted totalitarian dictators, it is they who have been re-enacting Stalinism in full inform mode. They drove out Arlen Specter, as well as now want to melt Snowe (as a blog Red State put it).

What astounding nonsense. Specter became a Democrat since he had no possibility of removing re-elected subsequent November as a Republican. As such, he wasn't driven out. He left to save his own domestic career.

As for Snowe, job her a RINO upon Halloween is an insult to RINOs who do not need costumes to upset a likes of Rich as well as his colleagues:

Only in a pick universe of a distant right is Obama a pariah as well as Palin a great white hope. Its turn a Beltway truism which a White Houses (mild) squabble with Fox News is counterproductive since it drives up a networks numbers. But if curious moderate as well as independent voters have been now tempted to roller there as well as confront Becks overacting for a first time, a presidents numbers will good as well. To a uninitiated, a tea celebration crowd comes across similar to a barflies in Star Wars.

There is only one domestic competition whom Obama unequivocally has to worry about during this moment: Hamid Karzai. Its Afghanistan as well as joblessness, not a Stalinists of a right, which have a power to move this boss down.

Keep meditative that, Frank. Better yet, keep revelation your readers that, for it's exactly this kind of cocky audacity from magnanimous media elites similar to yourself which authorised conservatives to take behind a House as well as a Senate in 1994.

One last comedic note from Rich:

This mainstay has been updated from a chronicle which appears in imitation to simulate a actuality which Ms. Scozzafava dangling her debate upon Saturday morning. How most would you pay to see what this stupid mainstay looked similar to BEFORE Scozzafava quit?
