RE :”The Dems can keep borrowing until 2013. Suppose we elect a GOP POTUS next year, and after that interest rates shoot up. Who will be holding the bomb when it explodes?”

I had a similar thought a few hours ago. Like a bad repeating dream,

Rs win the POTUS and the Senate by 53-47. They pass tax cuts using budget reconciliation to get past filibuster after promising that tax cuts and cutting spending would create jobs. Boehner announces he got 99% of everything he wanted. Another EU country goes broke and market crashes. Democrats cry :”We told you tax cuts for rich destroyed the economy” POTUS approval dives. Dems demand massive stimulus plan with handouts and tax credits. POTUS announces a deal with Reid and Pelosi on stimulus. Congressional Republicans rebel against him and kill it... POTUS approval at 25%... well you know how it ends.
