“GOP in chaos.” They say that like it’s news or something.

The headline:

“GOP in chaos.”

So what else is new?

“The reason Americans do so well in war, is war is chaos, and Americans practice chaos on a daily basis.” ~Erwin Rommel

Politics isn’t war, except metaphorically. War, on the other hand, is the continuation of politics by other means. So. There. If one of America's major political parties is "in chaos," then all is as it should be. In fact, I'd worry more if the GOP wasn't "in chaos."

How come there's no chaos? Why is everybody marching in lock-step!

Whaddaya wanna bet: the Democrats are in “chaos” right now, too. Rather, Senate Democrats are. Oh, sure, so are House Democrats, but that hardly matters.

If the House GOP’s chaos is somehow more visible than the Senate Democrats', that's just due to the larger number of individual Congressmen (“herding cats” is a common and apt metaphor). Also, the MSM’s tendency to amplify “problems” on the GOP side, and the fact that there’s just more full-grown pairs on the GOP side than anywhere else.

It's not surprising, or new, or unique, or especially fascinating. It's Wednesday.

NOTE - the headline I keep referencing is on Memeorandum. The Politico headline is different. I'm guessing it changed at some point.
