It's about power, stupid!

Andy McArthy just posted what I've been thinking for some time. The healthcare takeover will happen, irrespective of looming electoral losses in November.

We like to think that the current crop of Dems are typical politicians who will moderate their views given the displeasure of the American people with this monstrosity.

Repeat after me..."These...Are...Not...Typical...Politicians"

This is what the Dems have been waiting for since the Great Society. They already failed once with Carter and aren't about to let this opportunity slip through their hands. This is not just being made up as they go along...they were just waiting for the right numbers and the right person as head of the executive branch.

So, what are we (those who don't want a vast federal government overseeing our daily lives) to do?

We must press those on our side to plan now to act in the same aggressive manner in dismantling the plan. If our side behaves as typical politicians after this massive power is granted to the feds, then we will continually move incrementally toward serfdom, even with a massive takeover in November.

So, Republicans...given your giddiness about winning in November...what is your plan?
