Republicans Rooting Against Economic Recovery?

The GOP finds itself in a very interesting and increasingly uncomfortable position these days:

As evidence continues to mount, day by day, that America's economy is not only recovering but indeed roaring back--Republicans, who have staked their entire political being on destroying Obama and impugning every single one of his major economic objectives....could be really, really screwed.

Gee...maybe the economic stimulus actually worked!  Maybe Obama isn't a Bolshevik!  Maybe Obama isn't turning America into North Korea....

So be on the lookout for the GOP to be completely befuddled and confused on how to react to all of this.  After all, they can't openly root against the entire country improving, can they?  Surely they wouldn't be more interested in their own party's political fortunes than the well being of the entire country....

Right?

The American people and economy are the most resilient in the world. Regardless of who holds public office.
