Paul Krugman asks the relevant question. What next? Mitt Romney's boasts about
being bi-partisan have been scathingly debunked as no more true than his claims
about Jeep production being sent to China. In Massachusetts he was either at
war with the Legislature, or trying to alter their work with over 800 line-item
vetoes, that they thanked him for by over-riding them, in many cases
unanimously. There is s reason that Mitt Romney is polling in the 30s in
Massachusetts currently, which is unusual for a former Governor.
But back
to Krugman. This really is the argument, isn't it? "If you want a government
that works, then it HAS to be Republican or we will never let it function
without constant fighting and intransigence, okay?"
In other words, elect
us and support us or we will destroy the government and all that it stands for
and is attempting to do on behalf of the American people. We don't WANT to have
to do this, so the voters need to vote for us so that this will not have to
happen.
What an offer. Have some corrupt morons in government, or a
working majority of them. Okay, don't rush me now, I have to think about
this...
