Are there ANY moderate Republicans still representing this Country?


Perhaps, but they're not on the Super Committee. All the seats were awarded via an interview process and there's a reason Olympia Snowe or Ken Conrad aren't on it. There will be deadlocks on all the big issues, they'll cobble together some small amount and the the trigger for the defense spending cuts will cover the rest of the $1.5 Trillion bucks they have to come up with.
