David Rothkopf : Americans rank GOP presidents as better stewards of economy more often than not.

He says GOP presidents have been more successful in economic policy since 1949 .

He argues that economic growth under Democratic presidents has been much more modest under GOP presidents.

Rothpf: Tax cuts represent what may be our most readily available and useful tool for economic stimulus.

David Shreve: Republican politicians have found a remarkably effective political strategy.

He says GOP politicians have preached tax cuts as the be-all and end-all of successful economic policy.

Shreve says GOP leaders have their cake and eat it too, riding a diffuse anti-tax sentiment to political victory.

The strategy has buoyed a Republican Party that has consistently delivered sub-par results, he says.
