The American people voted for it, and made Obama President by the largest margin in years. It was certainly a much larger margin than Dubbya could ever claim during the years when he governed as if he had a mandate.
So the Republicans can bitch and moan and stomp their little feet all they want about what Obama said last night, but the fact is, they had your chance to try Governor Jindal's "America will pull out of this if the government just leaves everything alone" idea and it failed utterly. The truly pathetic thing is that they just don't seem to get that it's the message the people rejected, not just the package it came in. They can trot out all the MILFs or all the minority spokesmen they can find, but it ain't the package, it's the product.
All the GOP really has left is saying "this won't work" and then doing everything in their power to make sure it doesn't. Therefore, it's important to make sure that "everything in their power" doesn't add up to much.

What, I don't watch the speech and there's MILFs? Damn.
I can't believe anyone at all voted for their message in November.
Technically, Palin is now a GILF.
I'm certain that if you tap Governor Jindal on the shoulder with a stick you'll hear a hollow tin drum sound. This twerp was the GOP's best responder? Way to pull out ye ol' fear mongering platform soundbites, Rove. Err, I mean, Bobby.
Therefore, it's important to make sure that "everything in their power" doesn't add up to much.
That's the key statement right there. This is why it's imperative for everyone to keep writing to their representatives, both state and federal.
But it's ESPECIALLY important for people whose representatives are Republicans. Let them know that their consitutents are fed up with the posturing and stonewalling, and it's time to see some genuine bipartisanship for a change. Keep the pressure on, so that they don't have the luxury of fooling themselves that they're doing what their people want.
