Default Schisms in the national parties

Listened to Limbaugh the other day while out for lunch, and he made an interesting point. Both parties are undergoing some internal troubles right now as candidates vie for the candidacy. What's interesting is what they revolving around.

Republicans: Ideas. Immigration, the economy, social issues. A little about religion.
Democrats: Race and gender.

Republicans are working to find a central character around which to wrap their ideas. Democrats are trying to figure out which candidate will make them look the most PC.

Pretty telling.
