Members of this new miniwave of moderate Republicans support national defense, are eager to cut other federal spending and are hostile to Democratic attempts to reregulate the economy. But these newcomers also understand that the health care status quo is unsustainable. They seek a middle way on abortion and gay rights. They want to protect the environment. And they eschew the inflammatory rhetoric of the tea parties and town halls. We don't even have a name for this kind of Republican.

Perhaps one day, after the Court makes the right decision regarding...
...master's degree in public policy at Georgetown University in Washington in the 1980s. But while she often wore indigenous fashions as a college student and criticized the Reagan Administration's involvement in Central America's conflicts, she is a social conservative, opposing abortion rights as well as gay civil unions and efforts to remove a clause in Costa Rica's constitution that makes Roman Catholicism the state religion. She's also earnestly pro-business, calling on Costa Rica to shoot for a Chilean level of development via increased free-trade accords and ramped-up export of goods like microchips...
