I'm sorry but that is exactly what is wrong with the GOP. Their main priority is to get them selves re-elected.. Vs their main political goal should be "serving the people". He is just as bad as the rest.. I thought maybe he might be different , but guess not..
I have nothing against them trying to make Obama a 1 term president, but not if they put that ahead of actually doing their fucking job. Which is exactly what they have done. They put their party ahead of the needs of this country.
It's what allowed them to be first hi jacked by the Religious right and now by the Tea Party. The Republican party has no soul it's just a cheap whore selling it's self out to whom ever can bring it the most votes..

To me, this is a good example of why term limits should be in place and could work well. This way these people, regardless of party, are not worried about getting re-elected and will focus on doing a good job.
Sure, they might worry about keeping their party in power or helping their party regain power, but the best way to do that is to do a good job.
