Do you think Republicans are going to be able to stonewall job creation until after the elections?

You kind of answered your own question with that paragraph of information which your provided for yourself on the other not for your bottom two questions - I am a Republican and I would vote for a Republican President just as many others would I don't think that the people who do vote Republican think it is "stupid" either. They are not prolonging the recession if you ask me the Democrats are. Continuous spending and borrowing is getting us nowhere really fast.
