Anything like a re-play of the the Reagan Presidency would send our democracy - what remains of it - down the drain forever, so it is good to know that there is one important Republican leader apparently willing to sacrifice her political career to save us from the likes of Trump. This means that earlier mass media references to "honest Republicans" based on back room contacts between a few journalists and politicians or other unnamed sources is not mere wishful thinking. However, there are moral values and moral values. I'm not sure ready to write Liz Cheney a clean bill of health, and even her credit-worthiness continues to be suspect. By the way, I love Wyoming.

Oh, no. She is calculating that this is the beginning of a wonderful peak in her career. She is sacrificing nothing. She is positioned to be the voice and face of a New Republican Party. Presidential run coming right up.
