Five Reasons the GOP Will Rebound

Over at CNN, John Feehery lists five reasons that the GOP will rebound. Numbers one and two of these reasons have been pretty well discussed, but three through five are (to me) fresher:

1. The party in power tends to overreach.


2. People want checks on power.


3. Crisis breeds renewal.


4. Talent senses opportunity.


5. The Republican Party is now the de facto Libertarian Party.

I think a lot of people on the left don't get number five and don't see how it is linked to number one.
