Let's see. The GOP's biggest platform has been smaller gov, yet Obama, who never once desired smaller gov before, during or after his 08 campaign now advocates smaller gov only 10 months out from an election?

Its debatable how much the Republicans want "smaller government" either - sure, they want more tax cuts for the rich and less regulation for the banks and corporations... but that's not the same thing, is it?
