GOP Could Be Bracing for an Aftershock

From time to time I think about the first time I tried the Southern delicacy that is turducken—a deboned chicken stuffed inside a deboned duck, all inside a deboned turkey. I didn’t like it. As somebody once said, “There is just too much going on there.”

We have a lot going on right now in our politics, and like turducken, it isn’t going down well. …

The behavior of Republicans could be a leading indicator. Like animals that seem to sense when an earthquake is imminent, a disproportionate number of retirements is often a sign that a party is bracing for a bad year. CONT.
