Republican incumbents beware: There’s something happening here, What it is ain’t exactly clear

In times of political turmoil, it’s always good to be able to reach back to the 1960s for some Buffalo Springfield lyrics, and this is political turmoil. Both parties are seeing the conventional wisdom of their nomination fight (Republicans) and nomination coronation (Democrats) turned upside down, not so much by a pair of outside-the-box candidates, but more by the voters.

Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders are, to quote Dennis Green, who we thought they were. Instead, it is the voters who are driving this. And, that’s who Republican members of Congress need to focus on – not the candidates in the Presidential race, but the voters who are angry and unhappy with the direction of the country. CONT.
