Anyone who believes spending will go down with EITHER party should go take a look at the history of spending. It goes up regardless of who is in the White House or who is in control of Congress. The only thing that changes is the other side of the ledger - Republicans cut revenues and borrow to pay for their increased spending (i.e. they are passing the bill on to our kids) while Dems pay for their increased spending with tax revenue.

Sck,
I do love it when you talk crap. It's so easy to refute.
Look up Blue Dog democrats, or Pay-Go.
That's the 110th congresses (this one, the democrats) promising no new spending without being able to pay for it. That's the promise they got elected on.
See how long it actually lasted
Less than 30 days, when they had to make the first vote and just COULD not fit the increases in because they KNEW they could not just magically raise revenues.
Lemon's only got so much juice dude. Squeeze too hard it stops growing.
How many charts, graphs and facts do you have to have shoved in your face before you finally understand how tax rates and revenue work?
