No wonder republicans have to lie, smear, and appeal to fear to get elected!
They wouldn't ever get elected if they were actually truthful about their intentions, can you imagine?

"We intend to run the public coffers dry in order to prevent the federal government from governing, then each person is on their own to fend for themselves. If you are poor, the working poor, or the overburdened and shrinking middle class, too bad -- you are just not making wealth maximizing decisions. We the affluent and rich could care less about services or public infrastructure because we can just pull up stakes and leave if it gets too bad."

If republicans were honest with the Americans about their intentions instead of calling themselves "compassionate conservatives" or trying to pass themselves off as bipartisan uniters, they would have no chance.
