Just get it over with already

Here's a letter from a reader recently posted on Andrew Sullivan's page that sort of sums up where I'm coming from right now:

Andrew, Look, like you, I am aghast at the GOP and its partisan plays to the social conservatives. I'm a New York Republican, whose main focus is foreign policy. Like you, I'm a hawk. Like you, I'm a fiscal conservative (so neither party gives me a home on this issue). On social policy, I'm closer to a San Francisco Democrat, and I RESPECT you for not allowing your self-respect to continue to be co-opted by the Republicans playing footsie with the haters. Yet, from my perspective, if you don't get the foreign policy right, the economic and social issues won't matter. So I reluctantly, with teeth gnashing, support the GOP -- this round, while in this awful war, the fact that there are many areas to legimately criticize on the conduct of this war, notwithstanding.

Anybody have some words of consolation?
