If the GOP cared about the economy we’d be hearing about it from them. Bill Clinton defeated George H. W. Bush in 1992 running on George Carville’s , “worst economy since the Great Depression” theme even though the economy was in recovery. We are now truly in the worst economy since the Great Depression but the Republicans don’t seem to have the desire to talk about rising food, energy and health costs as well as low interest rates killing the savings of the elderly or even the number of unemployed and underemployed. It is a winning issue which Romney underplayed in 2012, allowing the Democrats to run unopposed using the “war on women” theme.
Instead the Republicans seem poised to cave in on amnesty, a major plus for the Democrats. I just don’t get it.
You don’t get it?! You have yet to realize for whom the elected politicians work for ... and it is not we the people, not for a long time now. The current crop of republicants will do as their money masters tell them to do.
