I love PZ. I really do. The American science community needs people like him to remind people that science (as a worldview) works, while religious fundamentalism doesn’t and, more importantly, science needs good watchdogs. But when it comes to politics, PZ’s a little too fire-and-brimstone to be practical, as his recent call for “victor’s justice” against Joe Lieberman demonstrates. From a pure ideological perspective, it would be best to wholly ignore the Republican Party, and run as far to the left as Bush did to the right. But remember what happened to Bush? Let’s not repeat that from our end. Thank God that Obama understands that (though Reid should’ve made as much clear a little earlier).
