I honestly thing that the people who 'think' like that, actually don't realize how lousy the republican economic policies are.
...
Without true economic change, you're phucked, and dig a hole you'll need YEARS to recover, if not more.
........
Remember this much
a. Last Day of Jimmy Carter - the US was the number one CREDITOR nation
b. Last Day of Ronald Reagan - the US was the number one DEBTOR nation
think about that one
for a while
c. Last Day of Clinton, with Al Gore - we had a SURPLUS - actual cash
d. Last Day of Bush - huge debts - and an economy that nearly did a Great Depression
.........
think about that one too
or when Republicans want to send people off the Debt Cliff with a default
many people feel that the Republicans are out to destroy
everything FDR and LBJ accomplished
and they'll want to turn back to the clock to the days of Wall Street being the freaking unregulated Wild West, like it was under Harding, Coolidge, and Herbert Hoover.
..........
The most loyal of democrats came up from poverty and economic chaos
the ones that Roosevelt saved
the ones that LBJ and Kennedy saved [they halved the Eisenhower poverty rate, yeah like 20-25% of the entire US was in poverty in the booming economy of the 1950s, LBJ got it to like 12%, 20 million people who cant afford to eat is a bit of a problem.
and well the people suffering with unemployment from clinton/bush era globalization and crappy trade pacts and the Bush recession/depression
will not be thinking the way you do.

long term the future is bright, short term it sucks....
and let's not talk about the Bush I Savings and Loan Scandals that came out after Iran-Contra. Seems a heck of a lot of Texas Banks and a network of some very creepy characters, where dozens and dozens of Banks had tentacles of the Mafia, and with a ton of Republicans and Intelligence creepers, costing the taypayer BILLIONS.
.........
"In the 1980s, some thirty or more savings and loan associations were secretly taken over by CIA, for use to funnel covert funds for bloody and dirty tricks. After the operation was concluded, the money was sucked out, and the particular S&L "collapsed". A highly skilled Texas journalist detailed the doings of some 26 of these CIA-S&L operations which went "bust" and the clean-up arranged supposedly by the federal deposit insurance authorities at the great damage and detriment of the taxpayers. One of the
S&Ls was run by one of George Bush's sons. See Pete Brewton's heavily documented work, "The Mafia, the CIA, and George Bush"."

Do you really see the Republicans as no different?
or financially MORE responsible?
