Where is the Center of the Road?

Good morning, Netizens...


Cartoonist David Horsey takes a fresh shot at the Republican Party, and in so doing, examines the political distance between President Obama and the Republican Party. Is President Obama really a centrist? Is there a strong centrist in the Republican Party priming the pump for a possible Presidential election campaign? Please do not revisit the jaded idea that we should jump to Sarah Palin as a Centrist because that bird won't fly.


Can you imagine party Republicans and Democrats actually getting along, meeting together and working on the many contentious issues facing our country?


The Republicans and Democrats are either going to have to somehow meet in the center of the political highway or we are doomed to more of the same contentiousness, with little productivity in Washington, DC. I don't know if we can afford to wait.
