10. Its not just about taking the US backward

It is about them OWNING the policy and law in this country. They billionaires realize if they control the legislature and the executive branch they can pass laws that favor their businesses with support of the Executive branch. All the money they spend...is an investment that they are looking at reaping the benefits. We must not let their investment come to fruition.

I think they played their hand too much during the Government shutdown. The US Chamber and hundreds of other groups rallied against the hard right. I think it also turned a lot of moderates (independents) off also. I'd be VERY surprised if any new Teabaggers were added to the House next year or the Senate. We really need to fight to remove some of the more far right in the House.
