E.J. Dionne Jr. - Mike Castle's defeat -- and the end of moderate Republicanism

In this article we see not only a reflective tone, but a word of warning of the dangers of extremism. If both parties are threatened by the Tea Party's media and financial savvy it is the GOP who stands to lose more from it. As this lunatic fringe dominates the Republican Party's ideological agenda moderates and centrists within it are either moving out of the party or increasingly afraid to raise their voices to speak out against the polarizing forces that will put this republic on shaky ground politically and socially speaking.

See coverage from El Nuevo Día , Caribbean Business , and El Vocero . It is a punitive measure directed at this institution for expressing solidarity towards laid-off government workers on September 25, 2009 (Black Friday). It is also a long-awaited measure by New Progressive Party lawyers, activists, legislators, and fanatics intolerant of dissent, and who have always considered the PRBA a constant irritant, a thorn on their side. As jubilant as some members of the governor's cabinet, legislators, supporters, and fanatics might feel, remember this: as functional or deficient a democratic society might be, it cannot be complete without civil society institutions and dissent. The weakening of the Puerto Rican Bar Association achieved just that. The PRBA might still exist, true, but it...
