I mean, sure, they would have lost Obamacare, but, seriously, if they had really gone through with this, things would have led to an even greater economic recession/depression than the one they've been dealing with for the past few years. Where's the benefit? Maybe if they kept blaming Obama, but they've tried that and nobody fell for it. In fact, the more they do it, the more people blame them for it.
The radical loopy wing on the GOP, also known as the Tea Baggers, doesn't think like that. Many of them were saying the default wouldn't be a big deal.
These are crazed religious fanatics. They'd have happily lit the fuse and burned it all down, dancing with joy they'd finally slain the evil gub-mint. Soon Ronald Reagan would descend from the skies bringing Randite goodies for all the makers. Or something. Who knows what goes on in their heads anymore? I'm done trying to figure them out.
