I recently read an article in which Sen. Olympia Snowe lamented the diminishing numbers of moderate Republicans in Congress. Obviously, if the citizens are voting them out, the citizens don't want them there. Sen. Snowe seems to think the solution to these losses is a continuance of the same lack of defined "pale pastel" policies that conservative America is revolting against. Snowe's and Collins' defeatist approach to debate in Washington has brought about their current definition of bipartisanship - a compromised, feeble Republican Party and a dominant, arrogant Democratic Party.

PROVO -- It appears the Utah County Democratic Party used a red pen when redefining its collective stance on the high-profile issues of gay marriage and abortion. A revised platform intended to give the Democratic Party more mainstream voter appeal in Utah County was adopted Saturday. That makeover includes a Republican-like definition of marriage and follows The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints' position on abortion.

An understanding of the definition and dynamics of time is necessary to the conception of a "postmodern" political organization. Additionally, the nuances of time illustrate the shifting role that race has and continues to play in postmodern politics. This article discusses the relationship between time, race and politics by emphasizing three primary aspects of time: time itself, as the condition for political action; timing, which expresses a particularly strategic process of political action; and being on time, which signifies the fulfillment of political strategy. This understanding of the contours of time is illustrated by the dynamics of "black politics" in the American political system, and among Democratic and Republican party organizations.

[...] it is not for life if the judge misbehaves - or at least opponents can make a plausible argument to that effect - and Congress removes the jurist, or at least threatens to remove the judge.5 In such a case "judicial selection" might encompass the tactical use of impeachment to deselect judges. In Part I, this Article frames the phenomenon of impeachment as judicial selection as a tactic of constitutional hardball, i.e., the framework suggested by Professor Mark Tushnet for understanding how parties or movements secure rapid change between constitutional orders.6 Part I also discusses several of the prominent instances of resort to this tactic, including the Jeffersonian, Nixonian, and Christian Coalition impeachments or threats of impeachment. [...] as to the grounds for impeach...
