Shutting down the government
Ending Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid
Outlawing all abortion, even when raped
Ending unemployment benefits
Ending all corporate taxes
Deregulating Wall Street
Deregulating the EPA and OSHA even more
Be afraid...be very afraid
I don't see how they get the support to do these things.
Probably what will happen is the government will become paralyzed. There will be three groups. Democrats, moderate Republicans and far right extreme Republicans.
Look at Sharon Angle. She says, "It's not a senator's job to bring jobs to the state". She says she only wants to give interviews to papers that support her position. She is a perfect example of right wing extremism and very typical of the Tea Party. I don't even want to get into her bizarre government policies of privatizing SS, ending Medicare and Medicaid and unemployment. There is nothing "normal" about her.
Once Republicans get into power, the next stop is the presidential election. What will they do that will make Americans want to vote for them?
That's your problem rdean. You're looking at a purely political game here. Many of us are done playing the political game.
We have much higher goals.
If Republicans had higher goals, they would have presented policy. So far, it's all been "Obama is a terrorist/Fascist/Socialist/Communist/manchild/who wants to kill your grandmother".
And when you ask about "policy", all you get is, "reduce the deficit, privatize SS, stop Obamacare, cut taxes, don't pay unemployment, let companies fail". These aren't "policies", they're "sound bytes". This is why radical republicans will have a hard time with the moderates.

when all you watch is MSLSD, thats whats one thinks.
-reduce the deficit? what a fantastically evil stupid concept eh? (reduce the deficit how?)
-privatize SS? no, privatize a portion of future contributors payments... (give it to an unregulated Wall Street to play with? Or what?)
-don't pay unemployment-? No, don't pay unemployment for 99 weeks, wherein it becomes an actual drag, not a help. (let people live in the streets or out of their cars because the economy was ruined by Republican Policies? What policy should change?)
-let companies fail? well unless they have unions eh?
then we simply MUST save them....even though we , you me and anyone who pays taxes are subsidizing them...... (at what point do we simply let manufacturing in this country just "go away"? Then what do we do?)
sound bytes? Please. PAYGO..hows that for a soundbyte? (like the Republican drug bill give a way? The cost was 1 trillion right off the bat and maybe up to 5 trillion over seven years. But it did get them the seniors votes. Did that make it "worth it"?)
-Obama care, if Obama care is so great why are the dems own stratigists telling them not to mention it on the campaign trial? (Republicans keep complaining about the evils of health care reform, yet can't name a single thing they don't like. And the stuff they do name, buy it or go to jail, death panels, etc., are all lies. And that is what America knows from listening to this ad campaign from Republicans. Even when the "real" death panels come from the Insurance companies cutting policies of sick people, Republicans lie. Republicans can't even say the words "middle class". When are they going to be FOR the average American?)
Oy vey.....

Wow, a senator who understands that it isn't the senate's job to bring jobs back home. How radical! Certainly nothing like what SHeets Byrd did.
btw, did you know when Byrd got in the Senate WV was ranked in the lowest 5 economically of all states. When he died 50 years later and untold pork, WV was still in the lowest 5.
The new meme for Democrats is "yes, we know obamacare is a loser. But put us back in charge and we'll fix it all for you."
ANyone who believes that needs to be whacked with a barber strop for stupidity.
The Dems were led down the garden path by Pelosi and Reid, who promised if they passed all this stuff they'd get re elected with no trouble.
But their policies are abject failures, both politicially and economically. And now they're stuck having supported drekk. They are toast.

You still haven't named a policy. If you can't explain how, then "save money" is merely a "sound byte". I honestly believe you don't understand the difference.

Look at Republicans on this board. They have no idea what Republican "policies" are, yet support them, whatever they are. It's just too, too weird. And when you ask about Republican "policies", they only have sound bytes. In fact, they may not understand the difference.

Oh so now you want to get into detai?
stop watching and reading one side of the issues and you would be able to craft responses based on what they have said, its out there, i cannot help if you closet yourself with the MSM.....
one would think that after 20 months of failed policy and a coupla trillion dollars, answers to your questions or at least pause for thought would be evident in your responses...yet alas.....

So there aren't moderate and far left extreme democrats?? Yeah, because they've all been so united under Obama...no factions whatsoever.

Because the Democratic Party is the most diverse political party in the world, they always have to work though coalition building. You can't name a political party more diverse than the Democrats. Not anywhere in the world.
While the Republican Party is probably one of the LEAST diverse political parties in the world. Simply because they are 90% white and mostly Christian.
The two parties can't be compared unless the comparison is meant to highlight their differences.
Do not pretend that dems are a unified group. Your statement logically would lead to the conclusion that with such a diverse group, there will undoubtably be many factions. Or do you want to give the impression that they walk in lock step on every issue like a herd of sheep??So there aren't moderate and far left extreme democrats??

In other words, "You don't know". Fair enough.

Just curious. How did you get, "dems are a unified group" out of, "Because the Democratic Party is the most diverse political party in the world, they always have to work though coalition building."?

RDean is the idiot brother of Jake Starkey. Or vice versa.
First they complain the GOP has no new ideas. Then they complain the GOP has new ideas. No winning here.
The truth is the party is experiencing a very long needed self examination as to what it is and what it stands for. The old bulls who were around when Bush was president are getting slammed for their lack of adherence to principle. The young Turks are trying out new ideas. This is long overdue for the party and a sign of intellectual ferment and good health.
The Dems. Well, they can run on the idea that it was all Bush's fault.

So what is your problem with white people anyway? Are you a little racist perhaps?

no they didn't always have to work thRough "coalition building" you apparently don't know your own parties history, life didn't start when you decided to become a forum members or get politically active...
and the democratic party is diverse until you disagree with them, then you are an outcast, the democratic party is a populist vote buying machine.
The last midterms they ran con. light ( or that is dem. light whichever works for you) candidates, to win seats, they did, now they will lose them all...so what about that? So they went what you seem to think os the rep. route for the 'white Christian voter' now they used them and don't need them anymore......lets forget the fact they have LOST hem..majorities are a itch eh? Cannot get around the old majority....
majority rule is only seen as a good thing when dems have it..when its reps. its because their majority is sppted by racist religious fanatics...wonderful, thats your diverse understanding big tent philosophy in a nutshell and part and parcel of the dem. scare'em to death class warfare platform.
