Those of us who were promoting social change in the 1960's scared the Repukes to death. They have never gotten over it, nor forgotten it. They have been fighting us ever since those times. In fact, many conservatives seem to have never stopped fighting the Civil War...
I have never stopped wanting to see the hopes and dreams of my generation from those days get realized and brought into manifestation.
What is most upsetting is how many people still believe the Fundy Fanatic lies and swallow the Reich Wing swill. 
As near as I can see, the Repukes are incapable of being reasoned with in any way.
I wish President O would see this and just quit bothering to work with them. It seems like he would generate a lot more popular support for his projects if he reached out instead to those of us who actually voted for him.
And, as some on this board have pointed out, we may have to focus on the next major election cycle, in order to restore Democratic control to both the House and the Senate, if we want to make any actual progress.
It certainly seems clear that the only game the Repukes will play is obstructionism, and holding their breath until they turn blue, and stamping their feet until they get their way on everything, even though their candidate resoundingly lost the election.
