In reading this Reason article on why conservatives should hope for a Romney loss this November, I found one of the last paragraphs particularly poignant and agreeable:
"The GOP is in a state of intellectual
flux, illustrated perfectly by the ideological heterodoxy of its
presidential field. Various strains representing different
interests are fighting for the soul of the GOP: The neocons are
duking it out with anti-war Paulistas. Social moderates are trying
to wrest some space from pro-life religious conservatives. Deficits
and debt worry everyone, but there is no consensus on entitlement
reform. The GOP allegedly stands for the free market—but it has yet
to figure out whether Bush’s financial bailout was right or
wrong."
