The problem with Ryan is his predilection to confront the social security issue. The GOP has tried to do that dozens of times, and it’s always turned out bad. Couple that with the fact that there is really no way to fix social security anyway at this late date, and you should come to the conclusion that there is nothing the GOP can do about it. What it needs to do is simply press the Dems to fix it. Afterall, they broke it. Ryan needs to drop the issue. It’s just going to get Obama re-elected in 2012, and maybe put the Dems back in control of the House.
Good point. Agreed that anyone who tries to fix any of the entitlements with the exception of the new so-called health "care" won't get anywhere.
