The conservatives and neoconservatives are counting on issues like the overblown importance of Obamas recent handshake with Raul Castro, coupled with other scandals and failures manufactured by the GOP, FOX News, Rush Limbaugh, Hannity, etc. to carry the Republican candidate into the White House in 2016. Their confidence is greatly misplaced, because the ACA will have had more than enough time to prove its value to the average Americans, and disprove all of the doom and gloom predictions made by the Republicans and the right-wingers. John Boehner is discovering in his dealings with the obtuse and pigheaded Tea Party Republicans, that they are going to be the greatest handicap faced by the GOP in coming elections. Especially presidential elections. Rand Pauls wife did the Republicans a huge favor when she put her foot down on her husbands presidential aspirations. If the RNC can get the same cooperation from the wives of Rick Perry, Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, Herman Cain, Ted Cruz, Michele Bachmann, Sarah Palin, and the other right wing extremists, the picture would brighten considerably for the GOP. But that is very unlikely, and with the Republican Partys ever-growing lurch to the lunatic right, it's going to guarantee this country will elect its first woman President in 2016. President Clinton. http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052702304014504579248353535966822 http://gma.yahoo.com/john-boehner-fed-39-ridiculous-39-tea-party-194816296.html http://screen.yahoo.com/comedy-central/tuesdays-mourning-050000850.html
