I heard a woman on the local talk radio show call in yesterday and she said something interesting.
She is Republican. And she said she's sick and tired of Republicans getting blamed for simply doing what their constituents voted them in to do.
She suggested that the Republicans should just vote "abstain" on everything for a while. Let the Dems successfully pass everything they want. More taxes, more spending, etc.
And then see where the chips fall.
If taxing and spending cures the countries ills...then so be it. We all win.
But if it does what common sense sort of suggests (nobody ever borrowed their way out of debt...lol), then it would all be on Democrats hands.
I think she has a good point. If it works...great! If it doesn't then the Democrats get the blame and the Republicans are no longer blamed for blocking what they don't believe in (because they would have voted "abstain"...so they don't have any responsibility one way or another for the consequences)
