The economic meltdown is a great boon for the Republic party, and the longer it lasts the better it is for them. If the economy free falls it will allow the republicans to have the political cover necessary to gut spending on domestic programs. This may include getting rid of the Soviet Security and most other entitlements. The fact that the rest of us will be eating dog food is of no concern of theirs.
Of course we will still spending enough on the military to keep the deficits around and feed the defense contractors in our Invasion world tour that will surely begin to keep people's minds off of the miserable lives they are leading. Just sayin'.
Update:
Atrios nails it.
Republicans are going to be in smash and destroy mode. It's really all they know. Well, that and looting.
