Well we will have to agree to disagree because in my view the current crop of Dems, especially those in the leadership and the WH, will not be part of any real solution.  They are the problem right now.  Are there Republicans that are lukewarm to fixing this?  Absolutely.  But if you look at the freshman GOP members they are raising heck with the leadership to cut more.  But nothing will happen because the Dems in the Senate have blocked every serious effort so far.  And even if they get past the Senate the WH can veto and there will be no override possibility until after 2012 and we can't wait until them to fix this fiscal problem.

Hound, I admire your optimism but I will wait to hear what you say when the GOP proposes real cuts, especially to entitlement programs, and you watch as the Dems will go into full political mode with the starving Grandma, taking away your SS and so on.  Mark my words, that is exactly what will happen and my only hope is that you and millions of Independents will not fall for it this time.  Your support of the GOP if they actually do the right thing is our only hope.  They will get the support of the 30% of fiscal conservatives and the 25% on the left will surley raise all kinds of stink.  You Independents will need to decide at that point who is closer to being right.....not perfect, but closer to the right answer and you will need to vocally support them along with us.
