A War of Attrition : Finding the Middle Ground


Everyone in office can agree we need to compromise, but which side will have to comprimise? The sad fact of life is which ever side does find the middle ground will feel the pain come election season. So will anyone risk reelection for compromise? Not likely. In an article today, The Washington Post did an story about the Don't Ask Don't Tell policy, and how it could split the republicans. Those who are not going for reelection might vote for it to support GOPround ( the gay rights organization within the republican party). With compromise being the dirt crime of our decade, will there be any change possible in our future without one party completely taking over?

Very big problems are coming to America in 2011 and we will have to deal with them. With the republicans now controlling more of the legislature, they will have to work with Democratics to tackle the main issues below.

  1. High unemployment
  2. Reducing the deficit
  3. Increase the pace of economic recovery
  4. Cutting back in government services
Will the Democratics and Republicans be able to work together in time to fight the decline of our great nation? Or will inaction be the death stroke that sends American in a downwards spiral to our eventual demise as a world power?
