The threat of primaries on the republican side has made life very difficult for Harry Reid and Chuck Schumer. For moderate republicans have given democrats cover for years, and they provide votes for cloture when they need them.
That's why the democrats come out to protect Lindsey Graham, Thad Cochran, etc.
Gee Chuck, let’s just get rid of the damned elections altogether then. I mean I’m sure you’d be for that if you were selected by the powers that be to be a Senator, wouldn’t you?
Scheming duplicitous, low down scum sucking bottom dwelling, pandering cheat and liar!
‘the current system engenders unhealthy political polarization’
The Democrats and their Media are hyper-partisan. Class warfare is tearing our country apart. But Dems NEVER accept responsibility for any of their destruction. Only R’s should vote in the R primary and only D’s should vote in the D primary.
ESAD Schmuckie, you worthless fascist.
What Schumer really means is that we are having an impact, and they don’t like it.
The RNC, the NRSC and all the incumbents’ “war chests” are being emptied in these primaries. And it’s gonna take a lot of rubber chicken fundraising dinners to replenish them, which leaves less time to cobble together bad legislation in their plush apartments.
Chuckles has a point
single party states are SO much more efficient at carrying out “the will of the people” (aka mob rule)
just ask Cuba, North Korea, China, Syria (where Assad just won a 3rd 7-year term: he wont the popular vote)
totalitarian states don’t need no steenkin’ opposition
party
Chuck Schumer is simply the worst of the worst of partisan democRATS. He presents himself as the champion of the mainstream, yet he is sooooo far to the left it is incomprehensible.
Schumer has never worked a real job, not a day in his life. He has sucked at the tit of government every day of his adult life.

This POS has never had to work at anything. He’s not stupid, and actually is highly intelligent (1600 SAT). Just hyper-partisan marxist.
You go first, dems...
Then get back to us in 10 years and let us know how it’s working out for you.
So thoughtful of Chuck U. to express such concern over the welfare of people he considers blood enemies.
FlJoePa: End Chuck Schumer
The broad road to single party totalitarianism.
Al D’Amato was right, Schumer IS a putz!
What would hell-on-earth be like? It would be living under the governmant and in the society that Chuck Schumer wants. Everytime he opens his mouth he voices an opinion that, if enacted, would diminish freedom. He’s the best argument for term limits and one of the reasons to leave New York.
I fully agree with Charlie. He needs to step down immediately.
...and it leads to Washington DC, home of the Uniparty.
You're understating!
They saw the damage they can exact in Mississippi with Thad and gang. Open primaries would destroy this nation.
Or just let Schmuckie or a Dem committee pick their opponents!
