The #1 thing the GOP establishment fears—more than four more years of Obama—is a true conservative at the top of the ticket. These guys in DC who are very connected, all profit from crony capitalist deals and handouts in one form or another, and if you have someone in office who will actually shrink the size of the government and its bloated budget, then their parasitic livelihood would be gone, and they would have to get real jobs. No doubt Josh sees all of the rich older folks at the RNC and realizes what he needs to do to get into their position someday.
Which is why we must demand TERM LIMITS. No one should be able to make a career of politics at our expense! Two terms house, two senate, then back to live under the laws you passed. No pensions except those they choose to buy and social security, just like the rest of us. No health care that can't be had by the general public; make 'em take Obamacare if they don't kill it.
I respectfully disagree Thane. They could hold their jobs but with a drastic reduction of money and power. These people are DRIVEN by a love of money and a lust for power.
They would still have plenty, more than most but, they WANT IT ALL!
