Recent history supports my pessimism. Every time the GOP is in a position to fundamentally change things, they cave, they capitulate, they cower, they kick the can down the road.
I stopped voting a long time ago. Why? The GOP never does what they say they’re going to do, and the Democrats always do what they say they’re going to do. When the GOP becomes genuinely anti-establishment, anti-crony-capitalism, anti-foreign intervention, anti-Fed, pro free enterprise, pro school privatization, and balances the budget without a tax increase, I’ll be optimistic.
Have you ever run for office yourself? Perhaps you could effect some positive change.
In other words you do nothing, then bitch.
Great strategy. A real winner.

I get were you're coming from. The GOP took control of the House early 2011 and yet we still have ObamaCare, gov. is still growing, BHO is still out of control with seemingly no opposition.
And having Boehner and McConnell back as Speaker and new majority leader doesn't bode well
