Every blog needs to do a post on it because it shows a serious fracture that is developing in the GOP this week:

In the wake of the passage of health care reform, nearly the entire slate of Republican senatorial candidates seems ready to run on a repeal of the bill. But now, the lawmaker overseeing their election strategy is softening the message. Rather than promising to scrap the bill in its entirety, the GOP will pledge to just get rid of the more controversial parts.

In a brief chat with the Huffington Post on Tuesday, National Republican Senatorial Committee chair John Cornyn (R-Tex.) implicitly acknowledged that Republicans are content with allowing some elements of Obama’s reform into law. And they’d generally ignore those elements when taking the fight to their Democrat opponents as November approaches.

“There is non-controversial stuff here like the preexisting conditions exclusion and those sorts of things,” the Texas Republican said. “Now we are not interested in repealing that. And that is frankly a distraction.”

What the GOP will work to repeal, Cornyn explained, are provisions that result in “tax increases on middle class families,” language that forced “an increase in the premium costs for people who have insurance now” and the “cuts to Medicare” included in the legislation.

The remarks seemingly put Cornyn at odds with the head of all Senate Republicans, Mitch McConnell (R-Ky), who signaled on Tuesday that he would support a legislative effort by fellow Republican lawmakers to fully repeal the health care bill. Cornyn himself had previously suggested that he’d support a full repeal campaign as well.

(emphasis added)

The man in charge of getting more Republicans in the Senate is saying no, while the leader of the Republicans in Senate is saying yes when it comes to a full repeal. It sure sounds like they are at odds with one another. Even the right wing blogs are not happy with Cornyn on this, showing an even bigger fracture developing.

Now the big question; the media has spent a lot of time talking about a divided Democratic Party lately, now will they give attention to the fracturing Republican Party?
