Reply #1: The only hope for the Republicans ... [View All]

... is the Democrats.

It's a pattern. The Republicans (you know, the party of fiscal responsibility we've heard so much about) invariably spend, spend, and spend some more, and put the country into debt.

Then they step back and wait for a Democrat to take back the WH. Once in office, the Dem has no choice but to take drastic measures to stop the financial hemorrhaging.

Four years later, that Dem is up for re-election and the Repubs say, "Don't vote for HIM - he's the guy who RAISED taxes."

It has become a tired cliche - the Republicans couldn't exist, nor could the country, if it wasn't for a Democrat getting into power every few years to clean up the mess made by the Republican administration that preceded him.

And so the story goes, on and on ...
