How do we hold the Republicans accountable?

[Scuba]

Poll question: How do we hold the Republicans accountable?

Now that the Republicans are in power again (OK, just the House and Supreme Court) what metrics should we be using to hold them accountable over the next two years?

Which data will be most important in convincing the American people that Republican policies either are or aren't the answer?



Please comment and/or add additional metrics if you are so inclined.

1. It is not possible to hold them accountable. Consequences do not apply to them.

Get ready (it has actually already begun) to hear the major story for the media - it will take time for the GOP to turn things around.

4. Such spin was entirely predictable. I understand...

...your comment about them never being held accountable, but if we win back the House in 2010 haven't we done so, in some measure?

2. We just "move forward" because we wouldn't want to look partisan

:shrug:

3. Isn't the real solution

To just give them everything they want?

Oh right...we did that already...

5. HAHAHAHAH we never did, Obama had NO stomach to hold anyone accountable

I am laughing too damn hard.

6. Democrats NEVER Hold Republicans Accountable

... too afraid to do so.

In each of the above instances, the Pukes will say BLAME OBAMA! And too many Dems will join them.
