So your fine with what Harry Ried just said if Romney is elected.

Five days before the election, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has ruled out trying to work with Mitt Romney should he win next week.
“Mitt Romney’s fantasy that Senate Democrats will work with him to pass his ‘severely conservative’ agenda is laughable,” Mr. Reid said in a statement on Friday, trying to puncture Mr. Romney’s closing election argument that he’ll be able to deliver on the bipartisanship President Obama promised in 2008 but has struggled to live up to

It's pretty hard to work with people whose sole objective the last 4 years has been to make Obama a one term president. Not only did the GOP vocalize this desire but they acted on it by taking the filibuster to another level. Furthermore, these same people have been damning Obama for not being able to work with them during the entire election when in fact it is they who are unwilling to compromise. It is unfathomable to me how these same people now expect anything less from the Harry Ried and et al.


Politicking is one thing and statesmanship is another. People disagree all the time but the actions of the GOP over the last 4 years can described as nothing short of malicious intent to harm, wound, and cripple not only Obama but this country's ability to function and for some reason Republic voters seem to think this is OK and gridlock is exactly what this country needs....disgraceful.

I can't blame him after what the GOP has done these past 4 years. I'm sure you didn't read this the last time I posted, but here you go.

Is GOP trying to sabotage economy to hurt Obama? - Yahoo! News



Also, a excerpt fromAltman's book "Sabotage: How the Republican Party Crippled America's Economic Recovery". It was a good read, I should pick up his book.


Daniel Altman: Excerpt: Sabotage: How the Republican Party Crippled America's Economic Recovery


**** the GOP. THey've gone out of their way these past 4 years to spite anything the President has wanted, and has selfishly hurt our economy all for the sake of politics. So now you want the Dems to play nice if Romney gets elected?...lol Uhhhh ...no.
