An interesting position, given your discussion of Delay. Senior staffers from his office, and elsewhere in the GOP House leadership, are on the record as defining "bipartisanship" in almost exactly those terms after the 2002 and 2004 elections.
In other words, they will "reach out" to Democrats who agree with their proposals, but see no purpose to compromise to bring in more. The established Hastert rule that no legislation can pass the House unless a majority of the GOP members support it, speaks volumes.
