RE :”RP is defining his borders...”

Then Rand should do his job and keep those bills from making out of the Senate, if Reid cant get the extension passed out of Senate then Romney is off the hook.
Voting ‘no’ on stuff that passes is a pretty safe personal play for him.

Personally I think playing up the debt limit getting O to focus all his fire on it and then (Rs) moving to a play on the CR would be a smart move if that's what they are up to. (Big ‘if’) It makes the CR shutdown look much less scary to the average voter, plus now Dems have gone on record saying that Rs should cut spending over it.

The debt limit play is a loser. O has little incentive to give in on that. Close to zero chance that it would accomplish anything.

Back in late 2008 and early 2009 I remember watching a clip and reading Ron Paul’s anti-TARP floor speech and it was one of the most inspiring ones I heard from anyone.

So I watched Ron for a while but I eventually came to the conclusion that with all his ‘stands’ that he never accomplished anything.

He always stood for what he considered the ‘perfect’ but he that I know of never got any bills passed into law.

And that takes me back to my theme.
