Democans and Republicrats are just two wings of the same party: Government aka the "Keep Ourselves in Power" Party.
Here is a video where Gingrich and Pelosi were playing chummy about "global warming" and the need to for energy "solutions". Of course, by the time of this video, man-made global warming had been pretty thoroughly debunked, so the terminology was shifted from
global warming to
climate change leaving out the man-made part while preserving the feeling of dire problems.

Think about this video the next time by corn or beef at an outrageous price. Ethanol for fuel diverts large amounts of corn to fuel, reducing supply for other uses like people food and feed for beef. And, the next time you are reading about how a wind turbine costs a zillion dollars. And, the next time you see the pathetic sales volume of the subsidized Chevy Volt and the other recent electric car.
There's ol' Newt ready to work with his counter-part (perhaps mirror image is a better word) to come up with energy "solutions."
Big Government.
If the Republicrats, or Democans for that matter, were serious about the country, they'd both be jamming the airwaves telling us how dire the country's fiscal situation is---we're broke (and in debt)---and telling us that measures tantamount to austerity were necessary yesterday. But, instead they come up with $61B in cuts when just in February the government set an all-time one-month deficit record of $223B. That's $223B deficit in one month.
