    The last push by GOP to kill the middle class

    By nuking the auto bailout deal because UAW did not bend over clearly shows that inspite of a crushing defeat, the GOP still bats for the Uber-rich and refuses to cater to the middle-class voter.

    The GOP is determined to crush UAW, bring down the wage of the working class down to Thailand or Philippines workers wage and continue to serve its base: the ultra rich.

    The auto companies may not be the best candidates for a bailout, but by forcing the UAW to accept negative wages while continuing to pay their CEOs extra-money, the GOP has shown its true colors.

    Until the GOP is completely and utterly crushed by the voters and punished by them with a maximum of THREE seats in congress and senate, the GOP will continue to serve its masters: The Richest of the Richest.

    In 2010, the voters should push the GOP to the fringe of the seats by continuing to defeat them in droves.

    Remember voters: It doesn't matter if your GOP congresscritter is nice to you: GOP == BAD.

    Defeat every single GOP candidate, and continue to defeat them in elections until there are no republicans left in congress and senate.

    Awake, Arise and stop not till the goal is reached.
