Rush, et. al. will say its the Dem's fault for blocking some of his policies, mess inherited from Obama, "growing pains", etc. And they will eat every word of it up. Not until they are in a soup line at a soup kitchen with no job, living in a tent, etc. will they realize. And then, because they voted "tough on crime" laws, they will have a felony for a minor infraction and be banned from voting.

I pointed out to someone I know that Republicans are NOT actually anti-abortion, they just rely on Democrats for championing women's rights so they can court the dumb evangelicals. The last thing Repubs want is abortion made legal. The social costs would be a nightmare and all their pet projects will have to be scaled back to deal with the social costs associated.

He still refused to believe it. Hence why Economics isn't an exact science. It assumes people behaving rationally....too many don't.
