Boo has a point: while the GOP has benefitted as a party from their relatively lock-step Congressional opposition to Obama, individual incumbent members of the party aren't exactly enjoying the fruits of their labors in the party's primaries.
Which could introduce an interesting dynamic for the 2011-2012 session: If the Pubs don't re-take Congress and simply emerge from the midterms as a larger minority, are the 'old guard' members of the party who have any whiff of moderation about them going to be as enthusiastic about that knee-jerk opposition, if their only reward is to get booted in favor of a Tea Party candidate down the road?
