  3. Thom Hartmann talks about it quite a bit. There was a memo in the 1970s called the Two Santa Claus Theory. Republicans had a somewhat deserved reputation in the New Deal/Great Society era as opposing big deficits. Some then argued (around the time of supply side theory being formulated) that Republicans could keep power if they used it to appeal to their Santa Claus to cut taxes, forcing Democrats to cut spending. Of course, Democrats helped them beyond their wildest dreams after Reagan won. It's the same reason why a Republican President will cut taxes and then whine about the deficit they created in order to use that as an excuse to go after Social Security and Medicare.
