Bennett: Obama Now the Target of Conservative Anger

"[B]ehind the Republican Party's elation after capturing the governorships in New Jersey and Virginia are troubling fissures within party ranks over how best to lead the GOP back to power in 2010. ... [I]deological battles between moderates and conservatives are underway from Florida to Illinois to California ... Sen. Robert Bennett (R-Utah), facing a conservative challenge over his backing of last year's bailout of financial firms, said 'my election will be about local issues.' 'There was a sense after the 2008 election of disillusionment with Republicans among Republicans, "these guys couldn't win, we should replace them all,"' Bennett said. 'Now, that anger has gone to President Obama.'"
