Republicans don’t have much of a backbone to stop a President in their own party

Oh? What happened to Harriet Miers?

What happened to Bush's "I'll see you at the signing?"

No child left behind.
Senior drugs.
McCain/Feingold.

There are others, just too tired to think of them...

That was also when Republicans were the majority.

But those are isolated examples that we wave around like we have big influence in DC. (Miers, Dubai Ports, Amnesty)

But what happened to the budget? What happened to the tax code? What happened to the size of government?

Conservatives have been getting pushed around and ignored since 1988- with a very brief victory in 94.

Exactly. Whoever the next president is, we’ve demonstrated that committed activism can put us in a position where we have Congress by the short hairs.
