I agree pretty much with what you say. The moderates who have been swinging back and forth in the unravelling are also swinging again. The idea that you should leave neither party in power to long, let neither ideology take hold in power, may end as the Republicans have totally discredited themselves. Their lack of serving the people, their service to the elites and corporations, their unwillingness to confront problems, have become obvious. The Tea Party is shrinking. It is quite possible we will have a crisis heart plus high and awakening making up a new progressive era. Even the self centered greed of the next unraveling should be built on the baseline of the culture the civics are theoretically about to create.
But right now the conservatives are still expecting a return to the last unraveling. There have not yet been enough deaths for many of them to embrace a new normal.
Never fear. The conservatives are working on it.
