The real reason the traditional media refuses to report on the collapse of the GOP Congress.

5. It's a little soon to call it a collapse

It definitely looks like it is going that way.

Currently they are about as effective as the Democrats previously. If they fail to pass this DHS funding bill, then it will be more dysfunctional and we can start pointing the shame finger. Everyone recognizes it is the Tea Baggers. Heck, some of those folks are downright gleeful about it.

If there is some sort of grassroots public mobilization occurring, then why the heck are the Democrats foisting HRC into the race? She is about as grassroots as Madeline Albright. All this will do is create weak support in the Democratic base, annoy the Republicans even more, and annoy a good portion of independents as well. I foresee an unsuccessful race there.

And there is still the question of voting machines.
