"GOP House leaders are taking steps to impose discipline on wavering committee chairmen and tea-party factions. Meanwhile, major donors and advocacy groups, such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and American Crossroads, are preparing an aggressive effort to groom and support more centrist Republican candidates for Congress in 2014's midterm elections.
At the same time, party leaders plan to push legislative proposals-including child tax credits and flextime for hourly workers-designed to build the party's appeal among working families.
Right. That's going to work. Corporate interests are beloved by working families, who will grasp the sincerity of the effort.
It all boils down to power. Who is in charge here? The constituents or the party leadership:"...
I just hope that the TeaBagger Party keeps doin' what it's doin'.... Every person they throw off of food stamps, unemployment benefits, TANF benefits, cuts in veteran's benefits, ... becomes another Dem voter.
Versus tens of millions who have lost health insurance or are facing much higher prices? It is a good think Barack can't run in 2016. Wouldn't even survive the primary.

PLEASE keep it up.
Cuts in veteran's benefits? Colorado Senators Udall and Bennet voted for that. Think the GOP will run that in their 2014 ads?

No source for the "Tens of millions" that have lost health insurance?... Imagine my surprise.
I'll save this post for when the ACA hits businesses...
The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

Like Obama? "If you like your health insurance you can keep it." At one time the press said Obama's words were the truth, now they don't. Time will prove me right.
Care to make a month long self imposed ban if by the time of Obama's departure in 2016, over ten million Americans will have lost their healthcare insurance due to the ACA?
And I won't welch on it like another here. We are already over a couple million and it isn't even January.
