They need to win any ideological battle that they can get in order to start the "assault" against Medicaid and Medicare, which I guess it's where most of the money goes to (that and the Military, but I don't think they'll drastically touch that, no matter the current discourse). In other words, if you show people that the Government can be dismantled little by little without any big revolution coming their way, then they'll next have the impetus to go for the jugular, i.e. Medicaid and Medicare.
