I think the biggest problem the GOP has is their record. What they did when they had all the power was nothing short of disastrous.

Now, we can all agree that the country certainly is not 'back' where it should be. Whether Obama helped (by stopping the bleeding) or hurt (with laws who's effects are yet to be felt) is open to debate.

What can't be denied is that the two parties cannot seem to stop from spending us into oblivion. Bush went nuts on it and Obama has put THOSE amounts way in the rear-view mirror.

What option is there? What VALID option? Anyone who looks at the non-discretionary spending amount - the stuff that CAN'T be cut has to come away saying 'where does the money come from'?
