The threat of financial meltdown is one of the only ways you will split a conservative caucus.

They may be able to keep together as a unit defining certain spending plans and/or social dictates, but not when it comes down to cold hard cash. Bickering over specifics when we run the risk of higher interest rates (another fallacy, perceived risk inflating corporate profit is all it is) and the possible shutdown of needed services (another fallacy as things will not grind to a halt, but sure enough it will mean huge headaches for all that are being serviced by them).

Sad, but maybe something good will come of this. If the conservative party fractures, maybe we will get a bit more of a balance rather than a tug of war between two extremes that have forgotten all the people in the pit between them.
