Two Paths for the Republican Party

Charlie Cook:
“It may not be too melodramatic to say that over the next couple of
years, the Republican Party faces a fork in the road. Following one
path, the GOP can seek to address what has gone wrong, the narrowness of
the party’s appeal, and the intolerance that has alienated so many
minority, female, young, and moderate voters that Republicans have a
hard time prevailing in federal races outside of carefully drawn
conservative enclaves. Taking the other road could lead the party over a
cliff in 2016, in much the same way Barry Goldwater led Republicans to
disaster in 1964.”
