I would be satisfied with a candidate that would promise to keep the budget level of 2008 through out his entire term.

That leaves "working to roll back decades of federal government largesse" as little more than empty words. It's been claimed that Republicans (both rank and file voters and the leadership and candidates of the RNC) pay lip service to "smaller government" on the campaign trail, only to abandon it as impractical once in office. Is that who we should be, what we should represent, and the best we can hope for?

But it would achieve what we want. It would make government smaller. It would keep making government smaller as the economy would grow and the government would not.

Are you not comprehending that slash and burn done on the government will not go over with a majority of American citizens? Is this failing to sink in? Maybe if I say it another way ten more times ten different ways? If I type slower? Will that help?

If the Republicans would like to remain out of power for the indefinite future, yes they can continue pulling the same shit. They got lazy, they got complacent, they got beat down. I hope to hell that they are not all stupid as you assume they are and they will refuse to learn why they no longer control the house and senate.
