First go back through the 300 plus bills passed by the house but tabled by Harry Reid, and bring those that are still timely to the Senate floor.
I just don’t see McConnell and Boehner suddenly changing their spots. They just can’t stand up to obama and furthermore, they don’t want the kind of change Charles has described.
That’s it in a nutshell.
Yes, but make sure Obama doesn’t try to claim credit for any of the Republican successes! (Like Clinton claimed success for the Reagan economy)
This is really sound advice. If the voters see reasonable legislation rejected by a radical then the wave will continue to roll.
Do not need any more ‘good’ laws. Need to get rid of most of the old bad laws and let the private sector do its job.
The government is a disaster and can do nothing except spend money and shaft the American people.
There’s a big split in the Dem Party between the pragmatists (Hillary) and true believers (Obama). Driving a crowbar into that split should be the goal of the GOP, and Krauthammer nails how to do it.
Piss off the true believers enough, goad them into a visceral reaction against the turncoat pramatists and you end up with Warren or O’Malley as the nominee (easier to beat) or a very severely damaged Hillary who has to struggle to turnout the insulted true believers.
Why aren’t the smartest people like Dr. K. in office? At least two reasons: Because some of the dumbest people make up the voting majority, and the smartest people don’t want to be dragged through the muck of a campaign.
Send a one item bill to Obama’s desk:
No one is exempt from Obamacare.
I agree with Charles here, position to take the oval office in 2016 THEN we can make real change.
With McConnell's pre-emptive surrender on Obamacare, it doesn't look like these two "leaders" are going to change much.
