The Republicans backed the wrong horse here. If they had said "this is a horrible idea, and we have a better one," they would have made some hay with this issue. They didn't. They said "this is a horrible idea and we prefer the status quo, which nobody likes."

Now they get to run on the platform of a political battle that they lost where no-one was on their side anyway. Not a recipe for success--just ask the Democrats in 2004.
Well they're going to have to find that money somewhere, I doubt that American's are going to want to see an ever bigger increase in their debt.

I wish that the republican's had a better idea, because as I've said, I just don't see this idea as terrific.
