[quote=Anonymous]No one wants to oversee a recession under their watch. We will find out shortly what people will sacrifice in order to get cheap gasoline. although the thing is, in 1980, the conservatives had clean hands and hadn't really had a chance to try out their stuff. Today, the conservatives have 1/6 hanging around their necks like an albatross - and while committed conservatives can hand-wave it away, there remains a core of persuadable (to them) moderates that can't. That will limit their potential gains. (Or, how much would it be no big deal if say 3,000 BLM protesters were storming the Capital gates?) We hadn't learned yet how to take obstructionism to a new level and the filibuster was nowhere near as weaponized as it is today. And, the only thing people like less than an expansion of the welfare state is a rollback of the welfare state (2018 was a reaction to Obamacare possibly going away, much as 2010 was a reaction to Obamacare being there.)
