I respectfully do not think they are playing chicken. I believe they have both had their hands in the golden pot so long that neither one wants to give it up or admit that they are just as guilty as the other side. If the truth be known i suspicion that both the Democrats and republicans alike have their special interests projects(which no doubt includes them personally in some fashion) and neither want to walk away from such an easy way to make money for retirement! Really sad , but more true than we know. Our best interest are not being served. That has shifted . Their best interest are being served since they make and pass the laws. We are at the bottom of the food chain here. The sooner all of us realize that the better off we will be. Whether Obama or mccain, the choice is the same as related to our best interest being served. One serves to increase debt loads and give back to the less fortunate and the other proposes no increases and proposes tax advantages for bsuienss so they will keep the economy moving forward with expansion and new jobs and less government. Neither said i tell you what, The current sitting congress has agreed to get rid of all of the pork barrel projects, special interest projects, and just let our taxes take care of us which what they originally were suppossed to do. We are supporting way too many other interest to make this work. Less spending, less projects, less graft is the way to go. Everyone would be better off. problem is no candidate will ever run and propose that because they would have to take less and so would their party. Wrong, wrong.
