But this is what I see right now.....And freeper's please correct me if I am wrong....
The Republicians control the house, the Dems have the Senate and the White House. But the US House of Representatives controls the nations "purse strings".
That being said.... The House voted on Cut, Cap & Balance and the Dems stalled it in the senate. The Speaker revises another bill that is very close to one Reid has. But now looking at CSPAN today (day off and had nothing better to do) I see the GOP fractured. Heck even FOX NEWS isnt helping me feel any better right now on this situation.
A fractured GOP translates into Reid/Bohner bill passing and Obama gets a temp victory.
I need some Conservative Moral Support - like quick!
The House freshmen are holding out and need our support!!
Hold the line!!
Rebellion is brewing!!
Read the polls. This is hurting the Dems much worse then it hurts the GOP. People blame Bohner more then Reid or 0, but the difference is statistically insignificant. Bohner is just some jerk from Ohio but Obama is seen as the Leader of the USA. Rightly, or wrongly, the President gets the credit, or the blame, for what ever happens in the Economy.
The Dems, not the GOP need a deal.
