    D’s when controlling govt: Create stuff like this (plus terribly advertise it). R’s when controlling govt: Kill stuff like this (plus tax cuts for wealthy, destroy govt). Very predictable. Easy choice.

    I get that people want to see D’s fight harder and not be a bunch of weak cowards, though.
