On GOP Ideological Fault Lines

1.  Immigration (legal and otherwise);

2.  Education;

3.  Protectionism (to be discussed in a post tomorrow);

4.  Government support for business (subsidies, bailouts, tax preferences, etc.);  and

5.  Overseas military interventions.

Most of these pit the Pro-Business Pragmatists against the Reactionaries, which is why the Reagan Coalition is harder to pull off than the Romney Coalition.
