Midterms

jetpilot Wrote:I strongly agree with every word of that. The only thing I would add is there
are plenty of Republicans hooked on spending now as well (have to promise handouts to get elected or at least not to cut the growth of all the handouts already out there), which makes your doomsday scenario all the more certain.
Most Republicans campaign exactly the way that most Democrats campaign. They boast amount how much money they have been able to get the state or federal government to spend in their home town or district.

The last time that I voted for a Democrat was after listening to a Hal Rogers campaign speech. I will never make that mistake again, but you are exactly right about Republican politicians and spending. Vote buying using government funds is how most politicians in both parties stay in office - that and by shaking down the private sector for campaign donations. Free stuff and scare tactics - the carrot and the stick.
