Yes, let's shut down the government, accomplish nothing, and toss away the chance to take the Senate.

That is a much better plan.

March 2011: “We have to pass this CR that cuts no spending, can’t die on this hill, just wait for the debt ceiling fight, that is when we will have the leverage”

July 2011: “We have to raise the debt ceiling, can’t die on this hill. Wait until the 2012 elections, we will win then fight for conservative principles”

December 2012: “We have to pass these tax increases. We can’t die on this hill, we need to pick our battles. Don’t worry, we will fight down the line on the next debt ceiling”

October 2013: “We have to pass this crap budget and not fight to defund Obamacare. This isn’t the hill to die on. We will get them, don’t worry”

Decmeber 2013: “We need to go ahead and pass this Paul Ryan budget. Don’t fight it, just accept it. We can’t die on this hill. We can’t ruin the chances of taking the senate.”

WASHINGTON – In the first closed-door meeting of the Republican majority in the new Congress, newly reelected House Speaker John A. Boehner on Friday promised a robust fight with President Obama to cut spending in exchange for raising the nation’s debt limit.

The Ohio Republican doubled-down on his insistence that there must be at least a dollar-per-dollar match between spending reductions and continued borrowing.

What good is the GOP taking the senate if the same old leadership, career politicians and RINOs are still there?
