But that ain't gonna win us the war! Ted, Program, Plan, Specifics .... that's what we need to get the Republic back on track. Spell it out, boy!

Reagan tried that in 1976 with his $90 billion budget cut. That may have cost him Florida in the primaries. In 1980, he did promote Kemp-Roth (30% tax cut), income tax indexing, and a precursor to NAFTA, and getting rid of Dept of Ed and Energy (Oh well). Of those, only the NAFTA forerunner could be thought of a a positive plan or program.

Here's what worries me at the moment, Doc. In the Fall election, the non-Democrats have a real shot at carrying both Houses.

OK. So what happens then? What happens to Boehner? McConnell, Reid, Graham? ... is it going to be a typical 'Republican' Congress, with business as usual, and the real structural reforms needed to be ignored again?

The current Depression looks like it will take until the mid 20's to finally go away. Will we be a centralized Socialist state by then?
