It seems to me that the right is more prone to hero worship than the left. They create idols of people like Limbaugh, Rand, Rick Warren (or whomever the pastor of the moment is), Bill O'Riley, Glenn Beck etc. Who is on the left that has the same mass appeal? Obama and possibly Rachel Maddow? The left is all over the place while the right worships in lock-step. It's interesting that the GOP is something people "have faith in" while on the left there are a divergence of opinions, so much so that it's difficult for them to get anything accomplished. Blind faith and obedience seem to be a "blessing" and a curse. A curse for the left and a "blessing" for the right.

Also, I've never seen Rand look better than in the artists depiction, really it is too flattering.
