The GOP will try to cash in on the anti-establishment tone of the mid-term election, but most of them are the same old politicians out to retain their own power. They can get away with it as they complain about Obama, but they might just set the bar so high that even a Republican administration can't jump it in 2012.

Probably (and mostly) correct but they are also, at least for the moment, aligning with what a lot of voters pulled levers on last November.
Just as the previous congress aligned with on previous elections - SPEND.
Cut everything by 20 % except defense, cut that by 10%, and SS/MC/Ed bring to 2006-2008 levels.
