Well, I would assume much of this would indeed be a result of the rift happening on the right. If you're sitting on the fence and you see what's happening with the Republicans, the Democrats are looking mighty stable and principled.
The Tea Partiers are doing their thing, and now the Republicans know they can't be ignored. Interesting times.
But let me get this straight—help my socialist Canuckistan brain out a bit—the Tea Partiers, generally, are concerned about the Republican party having moved too far left? What has changed with the Republicans in the post-W era?
