Nothing will happen. The GOPe are for big government as much as the liberals. Susan Collings of Maine gave up the game in an interview saying “no, we won’t repeal Obamacare. We’ll work to make it better”.
Mitch McConnell of KY, when asked about what to do about Ebola, said first, “give the CDC whatever they want. We just sent the president a bill to give them $88 million now and they can get whatever they need.” This after reports of how the CDC illegally wastes and misappropirates earmarked money in their budget. When called on it they claimed they “didn’t have the records as to where the money went”. That’s criminal. GOP response? Snooooze.
What did they do with the IRS scandal? NOTHING! They wrote mean letters. They held dozens of committee meetings to no avail. This was ripe since the people hate the IRS and yet they didn’t do anything to anyone even after their lies of “my harddrive crashed”. Boehner didn’t want to have real hearings with teeth because he and the GOPe WANTED to squash Tea Party activist along with the Dems.
Now, cure Ann Archy and the other FR “We must take the Senate no matter what” crowd to tell us how the world will come to and end if we don’t.
I’m tempted to post a long list of predictions of what will NOT happen if the GOP does take the Senate.
If you're going to take a cheap potshot at another FReeper, at least have the courtesy to Ping her.
Ping.
Unfortunately if the GOP does win control of the senate, there is a strong possibility that, instead of acting to undo some of the tremendous damage that has a been done to our citizens, they will spend the entire time trying to crush the conservatives in congress.
This is why some are hesitating, in their support of GOP candidates. It is up to the GOP to reassure the voters that they will do what they say they will do.
They also need to acknowledge and condemn the despicabe tactics that were used in Mississippi. Cochran should wihdraw, or resign if he should win and McDaniel should take his place.
