Re: The Power of SCOTUS VIII redux: IX is being blocked by the Senate.
I don't think they're orchestrating it -- they did not want this to happen. But I think they are playing the cards they were dealt the best way they can. Politics is about getting what you can when you can, and that includes not letting a crisis go to waste. The GOP establishment is actually in an enviable position in this one respect: they can't be held responsible for what happens next. There are ways to use that to their advantage. The most obvious is to use what could be a coming Democratic 18-wheeler to behead the Tea Party. They can then use the debris without having to be bothered with the cray-cray leaders.
It's not ideal, but it's what they have right now. If the configuration changes, they'll change.
