Good stuff.

Well, better a center-left party and a center party in Eraserhead's wishes than a far-right party and a center party like we have now.

You know, if you're going to do the judging-American-party-placement-on-international-grounds thing, you really sure can't call the GOP "far-right."  Have you seen what kind of real far-right parties they have in Europe?

There are plenty of GOP politicians that would be right at home in the FN in France or the PVV in the Netherlands. They're probably not as extreme as openly fascist parties like the British National Party or that Neo-Nazi German party (the NPD or something?). And yes, there are of course some Republicans who are merely center-right, but they don't lead their party and they would never win a presidential primary.

Emphasis on "some."

And those "some" control the party.

wait a minute...do you wish to imply that McCain is "far-right"?

Considering that he ran against progressive taxation, yes.
