#7 Ask Joe Biden to step down as VP, then appoint Sarah Palin as his replacement. Then resign. Sounds easy.

#10 He said he is open to any idea and is willing to compromise. Except on tax cuts.

#11 lotp, remember the Agnew gambit. You ditch the VP first on some questionable family business, allow them to nominate someone who has to pass the Congressional OK with 'bi-partisan' support, then the resignation. The game's been played before.

#12 Repeal all health care laws, account for TARP money, and make a statement that the gov will not bailout failed businesses again.

No I'm not being hacky...businesses do not want to spend because they do not know their future expenses and do not want to chance hiring a bunch of people and be responsible for their health care expenses.

Where did the money go? Are we now indentured servants living on Chinese property? Pay off that debt.

By propping up the banks and autos, failure was rewarded. The autos were not able to declare bankruptcy and renegotiate with their unions. There are many fine banks out there who were going to flourish but were struck down with the saving of the failed banks and then doubled up upon with new FDIC regulations. Disintegrate Freddy/Fannie.

So yes, hit the reset button or your parlance call a mulligan.
