Somehow, I just don’t believe that if the GOP doesn’t take responsibility for their mistakes how the American people will ever trust them again with power.

The point should be to make the GOP a credible governing party again, not to say “well we aren’t as bad as the other guys”.

Of late, both parties have been equally bad and this add proves that the GOP still has no new ideas.

It really is time for a 3rd party or America is doomed. Start learning Chinese - Ni Hau

Interesting comment...but you forget that the American people trusted the Dems with power after their disgraceful performance in the '40s, '50s,'60s and '70s. You remember, Dan Rostenkowski and the rest of the corruption that didn't even come close to the Republican incompetence after they gained power.

The pendulum will swing back the other way, especially if the Democrats blow it as badly as it looks like they’re going to. I don’t see how “taking responsibility for mistakes” does anything but drag the past into the present. That’s the kind of advice you give to your enemies. Third parties don’t work in America. It’s fun to say we’re doomed but we both know we’re not doomed. America will continue to be the Alpha Wolf until the day God establishes his kingdom on Earth. That bugs you, of course, but so be it.

Really? Did I miss the part where the GOP tried to have the government take over auto makers, banking and health care in America? If you really think they are equally bad than I want some of what you are smoking.
