Will the Party of "No" actually be able to govern?

Apparently not if the National Review's recommendations are followed.

The Teabagger faction, led by Cruz, will simply not countenance compromising with Obama under any circumstances. It will be up to McConnell and Boehner to marginalize those nihilist @ssholes.

The way I see things going Benghazi will be just one of the dead horses they will try and keep in the news. To tar Clinton bloody her up some before the election.

Do a few minor changes to the ACA, namely come up with a new name. Stop using Obama Care use their new name. Still be this ACA in all it glory but still take claim to it now.

Expect this: Obama will be given (as they can get them through the Senate) popular-sounding bills with poison pills in them to guarantee vetoes. Then the line will be 'see--we need a Republican President so we can do all this 'great stuff.'

I'm afraid you're right. Politics is all about the next election and the GOP has little chance without such shenanigans.

If this conglomeration of Dickheads could convert the ACA to full participation / single payer with strict enforceable oversight to prevent corruption, then I might be interested.

The Turtle has already said to "count on" a senate investigation into that whiffed up IRS deal that didn't deny any 'bagger 501c4 tax free status. The idiotocracy demands their red meat.
