of democracy and representative govt, BUT, when you have 435 members of the House of Reps, you're gonna get some real idiots, when you consider the districts (Texas and other southern states) that elect some of these yahoos. Now, during their 15 minutes of fame, they get to rail against the Dems who hold 2 of 3 branches of govt. Not gonna do any good, but they get the stage, for a while, like Ted Cruz, who made a fool of himself for over 21 hours, BUT, gained a bunch of financial support from likeminded dimwits, who can't stand the idea of a black man in the White House, and providing health care (Oh My God) to the unwashed masses. The prevailing view among Repubs continues to be, "I've got mine, screw you." Is gonna be interesting to see how it all turns out, but just don't see any scenario that has the Pubs doing anything but crashing and burning.
Bonus question. Who can remember what the issue was when Newt and the Pubs shut down the govt last time, in 1995, and Clinton ate their lunch (like Obama will)? Most don't remember, (Medicare), but most DO remember how the Pubs fared in the '96 elections. Bring it on, idiots....
