And moreso in 2016 — Romney is, politically speaking, indistinguishable from Obama. (And if November 2014 to now has taught us anything it's just how stupid those claiming that congress would hold his feet to the fire actually are — I mean look at how they "oppose" Obama, who isn't even "their guy".)
In fact, that the Republican Party has consistantly stood for nothing is the reason I didn't vote for them in 2014; I knew that their win would not be taken as a repudiation of the Democratic Party's policies, but rather as proof that (a) no actions are actually needed, and (b) yelling I'm not a democrat
[even if rolling over for them] is enough to win.
Sorry, I was thinking 2008 and 2012... I guess I need some coffee.
