If the last three years of GOP is any measurement we have a problem. Unfortunately the Republican members of congress did not have the courage of their convictions. When the push came to the shove most our members wimped out. They appear to have forgotten that being in congress is not a popularity contest. There are times when standing up and being counted is necessary. This display of cowardliness was obvious and could well cost us the next election and more.

Ever notice in the media that Democrat is always used to ID them but GOP is used to ID us?

I would think that under 25-somethings probably don’t even know what GOP means? But it’s crystal clear who the other party is.

"Unfortunately the Republican members of congress did not have the courage of their convictions."

Seriously, do you think many if any of the "Republican members of congress", really have any convictions, other than the same as the Democrats? Getting elected and re-elected and willing to do or say anything to accomplish that end?
