That is a good theory as to why the Democrats did not expose Barry during the election. Buy why did the Republicans let him get away with it? What did they have to gain from corrupting our country to this degree for the benefit of the Democrat Party?
Because so many of them are (a) terrified eunuchs, (b) blackmailed because of their secret vices or crimes or (c) beholden due to recieving various monies illegally. Or possibly because they just want to stay in DC in some manner for due to lust for power and money and don’t have any principles and therefore don’t want to rock the boat.
Because they are a bunch of impotent weenies?
Why are Grassley & co. trying to do a backroom healthcare deal?
It’s what the current crop of pubbies do!

Well, they're not called The Stupid Party for nothing. My guess is that they;
a) Were out of the loop on most of the truly gory details of Zero's ineligibility, and,
b) Were not willing to go out on a limb with what they did have, because after all, "that's racist!", and,
c) They were lined up single-file behind their candidate, who is perhaps one of the worst RINOs in Washington, so were getting NO signals or marching orders from the top to drown the despicable Dems in their own toxic waste.
Those are my personal observations on why they failed to do anything effective to prevent the nightmare we're now in.
