Chris Weigant: The Ryan Budget Acid Test

But Schumer seems to be the only one drawing the larger conclusion from the whole tiff -- that the Republican Party has now made supporting the Ryan budget its acid test for 2012. This could be suicidal, but they've decided not to back down one inch from the plan to turn Medicare into vouchers. Harry Reid is planning to hold a Senate vote on the Ryan budget before the Memorial Day break, which will put all the Republican senators on record as voting to kill Medicare as we know it. This is good politics for the Democrats.

Leave to Repugs to let their extreme leaning to the right be their own downfall, the majority of American people, especially the seniors, don't want Medicaid and medicare fucked with, but Repugs don't want to listen to this, may the acid test burn their asses at the polls.

Rightwing trolling and bitching responses are anticipated.
