If history is any indication, the Republicans will roll over and accommodate the Dems. They have no spine for guerilla warfare. They have to accept that all socialists and communists are, by definition, revolutionaries. They are willing to do whatever it takes to win.

The Dems have shown in the past that they will resort to incite violent demonstrations, disrupt the functions of civil government, etc. Until the Republicans are willing to do the same...well, lets just say that the Marquis de Queensbury rules have little influence on a street brawler. We're not engaged in a boxing match, this is a street fight.

"If history is any indication, the Republicans will roll over and accommodate the Dems."

Well history has dictated that the majority party gets 2/3 and the minority party gets 1/3. Why should it matter which party is in the majority?

Some committees like Judiciary have already agreed to accept Daschle's idea. The capitulation has already begun!
