Actually, if there was an active campaign being waged by serious candidates to pledge as I've proposed, it would serve to undercut support for any of Obama's future spending plans. These politicians look after themselves FIRST and might think twice about what they vote for, especially if it will be DE FUNDED anyway in two years.
The most serious candidates in the last two election cycles were Democrats. Not Republicans and not conservatives.
Aside from Obama and the Dems running the country. Lets not forget that almost half of all Americans don’t even bother to vote and of the 60% that did vote in the last two elections, the liberal establishemnt got most of their votes.
Point in fact: the GOP needs leadership at the top. Right now, there is no leadership to speak of. Until someone grabs the GOP by the cojones and decides to advance conservatism, what we have today, is what we have to live with.
