Carrying the ball would have been to say "Yes we MUST help the farmers even MORE than the democrats think is necessary. But we also agree with the democrats that we must be fiscally responsible. So, here is where we believe we can cut $8 billion to pay for it. We will work with the democrats if they think it should come from some other priority."

conservative Republicans have to carry the ball forward a few yards at a time

Instead they just crank another $5.5 billion out of the tax payers' hides and to add insult to injury they tell them they should to be glad we didn't take even more.
