Republicans have used message control as a force multiplier. They all get the word, and they reinforce each other's statements. It's clean, but it has a downside, namely, that it depends on the quality of the message. If it's a bad message, they all go down as one.
The Ryan budget is a colossal mistake. Scholars will puzzle over that one for the next twenty years. How did such an unpopular proposal get out of committee? And why were the Republicans foolish enough to vote for it unanimously?
They are now in disarray, as the Democrats use the Ryan budget vote against Republicans in vulnerable districts. If they break ranks now, it's every man for himself. In other words, a rout. The Republicans need a new infrastructure. Karl Rove was over-rated, and now they're finding it out. It's fun to watch.
