Be polite and smile, but get the agenda into motion. Change cloture rules in the Senate and get conservative judges on the bench.

If deep inroads in the courts are made early, the mass of the electorate will forget all about it in four years. Only the crazoids will rave about the long-term consequences. Weaning the nation from the myriad of social entitlements is a long-term project that will take time and deliberation.

It will also be necessary to secure judicial rulings that certain relics of leftist machinery in government are unconstitutional before going forward with dismantling. We'll want full participation from all branches before implementation of hot-button changes.

The cloture rule will not be changed. According to the provisions of the current cloture rule, it can only be altered by a two-thirds majority vote of the Senate. Ain't no way in hell the Dems are gonna let that happen.
