Let the Democrats own this mess.
Don't criticize the GOP until we get into election season and we see what they bring to the table.
Keep in mind that Newt Gingrich's epic "Contract With America" campaign in 1994 wasn't rolled out until late September when the key issues and voter sentiment had begun to crystalize.
“I’m no fan of the GOP establishment, but there is pretty much NOTHING for them to do at this point.”
Perhaps, but they have had numerous opportunities to pull the cord from the back of the bus and they have yet to show a spine.
