Will the GOP cut off it's nose, not give the Senate passable bills or will they stop the coming tax cuts expiration and automatic cuts in last summers debt extension?

By passing bills like the Ryan budget, cutting child health care, cancer screening for women for student loans (opposed to 20 billion to big oil), the GOP is cutting off it's own nose to spite it's face. Dubya tax cuts will expire with both the rich and middle class getting a tax hike. The debt ceiling automatic cuts will lose 100,000 jobs in defense (mainly in red states) and 100,000 more elsewhere. By drawing a line in the sand nothing will get done. Gingrich learned his lesson about lines in the sand when the government was shut down, then compromised with Clinton. This GOP is intent on blowing things up with compromise akin to treason. They will pay a stiff price in coming elections when it hits the fan. Since the shellacking things have gotten worse under the GOP in states and the federal government. Cuts they propose has seen the UK and Spain both in a recession. The UK has over 10% unemployment and Spain over 20%. The American people should come to their senses and move this country forward not backward. 2 trillion sits on corporate balance sheets waiting for demand. Increasing that 2 trillion will not create jobs since only a fool expands without a market.

At present , there is no way Mitt will get to 270 unless Obama hits his mother in law with an axe or Mitt finds a way to woo Hispanics and women and actually reveal a platform that is not reliant on jargon and finger pointing. Forget gay voters. Not going to happen.
There is only one thing for Romney to do. He has to do a major flip and tack center. When he does, Team Obama will be on him like a chicken on a June bug.
It would be no surprise if one of them stood up in Congress one day and started giving the official cry of the rooster, "cock-a-doodle-doo." Makes just as much sense as anything else they say and do.
