Parnell's recent decision was probably fueled by pure politics as much as anything else. He backed some progressive legislation (education, women's issues) in this last session, so now he has to show his true conservative colors--after all, he's facing re-election.
This is consistent with the concept of Constant Campaigning that is currently dominating our national political scene--to a nauseating degree. No one dare break with his party line and risk losing office. Campaigning has taken precedence over legislating and it's tearing the country apart.
