“The next 10 days or so are going to be interesting.”

There is a major election in 20 days. The Ebola crisis wraps up healthcare, national security, and immigration policy in one very tight package. The administration is badly and publicly fumbling its response to the crisis.

If the Republicans held the White House today the Democrat propaganda machine would be in overdrive attack mode (remember Katrina). The Republicans have an unique opportunity to step up and look like responsible adults, capable of dealing with a very real crisis, while Obama and his team continue to be obsessed with political correctness. The leaders of a real opposition party would be standing in front of cameras today demanding the CDC head be replaced, the borders be locked down, and the President stop fundraising from billionaires long enough to roll up his sleeves in the White House and start really managing the crisis.

Unfortunately Boehner and McConnell are political hacks, not patriots or leaders.
