The republican party is in so much trouble because they listen to the Rush Limabaughs, Glens Becks and Sean Hannitys too much. The tail is wagging the dog.

Political Conservatives tend to need daddy figures. They respond to authoritarian personalities.
"Preferences for stability, order, familiarity, and conformity add up to a strong propensity for what Jost calls system justification, or ?favorable attitudes about the overarching social order.? That is true not only among conservatives who are well-served by the status quo ? those with wealth and power ? but among those whose individual or group interests are ill-served by the social order.
At the far conservative end of the spectrum one finds the authoritarian personality: extremely hostile to change, intolerant of ambiguity or difference, and highly attuned to established hierarchy."
