Sleeping Giant
As Obamacare makes its way to the states, many GOP governors are changing their stance on Obamacare by adopting it. The only state that hasn't adopted it yet is Texas because of its anti-federal government governor Rick Perry. Rick Perrys hard stance against Obamacare is going affect many Texans by denying them good affordable coverage. It is also going to awaken the hispanic voting block, because once they see that the only thing blocking them from getting good insurance coverage is a stubborn governor, (who himself has good coverage thanks to the tax payer) are not going to be pleased.

GOP Pass Budget
The Republicans know how to get attention from the media, they get so much publicity from right and the left. Representative Paul Ryans budget kills the safety net for the poor and yet people aren't troubled by it. Many poor Americans can't pay attention to the budget process because they work and have mouths to feed. I don't think Ryans budget will pass but the media has to do a better job of highlighting better budgets. Like the one progressive democrats passed, it did not get any attention at all from the media and yet it was better in every way because it had spending cuts, investment, and revenue.

Those perks that they are entitled to only last for 4 to 8 years, so I don't see what the big deal is.
