So how do you think the Tea Baggers did?

Tony, you hit one of my favorite topics.

The old refrain from the Republicans is to call the democrats "Tax and Spend Liberals". What they often forget to mention is that the tax increases in the past have often been to pay for the incredibly expensive things the Republicans got the US into, without bothering to fund them, except through debt.

President Clinton left the US with balance budgets. The boy king had 8 years and he managed to get the US into multiple wars, and create all sorts of new government agencies, levels of government, etc. What he didn't do was raise taxes to pay for it all.

At some point, the bill comes due, and it's usually on the Democrat's watch.

So they aren't tax and spend liberals, just the responsible people who have to pay for all your wild trickle down voodoo economics and unwanted wars.
