Expect a showdown at the GOP Convention as those on the hard right battle with McCain over the GOP platform that is currently at 100 pages all but nine of which have Bush’s name on them. Damn.

In other GOP news in hopes of salvaging some of their power and influence in the House and Senate party officials are hanging their hopes on being able to redistrict everything and everyone come 2010. From the Huffington Post:

Should the GOP win back the majority of these seats (Democrats currently occupy 28 state capitols), they would be extremely well positioned to influence the redistricting of the political map that will come after the 2010 census.
