Second, this was exactly my point. One of the reasons for the Dem's strong record is that the Rs will make an election issue - effectively - out of any wild spending. The Rs spend wildly, however, and no one takes our criticisms of it as seriously - witness this exchange. Years of anti-spending chants are what give the Rs the leeway to spend like drunken sailors.

I think one of the main reasons the GOP looks likely to loose the mid-terms is exactly because the fiscally conservative/libertarian wing of the party is fed up.
