The Republicans in the house and senate, etc are comfortable being (as they were for many years) the minority. Thus they can play (portray) themselves to be the underdogs, and that the Democrats simply are blocking them from being effective in the conservative issues.

It takes the heat off of them, and they play/say how well they would do if they were given the chance. In fact when given the chance they were more like Dem's. that Reps.

They actually prefer to be second rate. IMO How they go through the motions and effect little or nothing of import.

Very discouraging and yet that is exactly how it appears. All staging and going through the motions while agreeing with the Dem's... as to one world government, immigration, health care, socialist programs, etc..

Hey, we pay rent for their cars (gas hogs) and also pay for their fillups. Maybe the C in DC stands for complacency as long as they get their’s. (Content fat cats)
