Grover Norquist, head of Americans for Tax Reform and author of the infamous no-new-taxes pledge, is losing acolytes. Which is good, mainly because Norquist is an idiot (he wants government to be so small that “we can drown it in the bathtub”).

On the other hand, now that old Grover is kaput, who is going to stop Democrats from trying to spend their way out of every problem?
