3. So........what's next for them?

Benghazi has been a bust for them and now this too isn't bearing any "fruit" (but they're keeping it going for 2016 in the event that Hillary jumps in the race, which she probably will). I'd like to think that they've wrung all of the juice out of demonizing PPACA but there will doubtless be more repeal votes in the new Congress even though the numbers clearly show that PPACA is helping, not hurting, people and, at any rate, it hasn't brought on the apocalypse they were fervently warning us about. Some wingnuts are freaking out about Cuba but Republicans don't seem to be quite so unified on it, so that's probably a bust for them. Guiliani tried to partially pin the deaths of the police officers in NY on President Obama but so far Republicans aren't really taking the bait on that either and President Obama didn't even say anything offensive/controversial about it so, I ask again, what's next for them? I mean, I'm sure that they'll find something. Any predictions?
