Changing the rules on goal is not so simple because the rules were set by the EPA, not by Congress. I don’t how easy it would be to over rule the EPA regulations. Maybe it wouldn’t be that difficult.
Eye on the ball. The goal is not to shorten Obama's final term by 3 months. The goal is to win the Presidency in 2016.
If Manchin had decided to switch a few months ago, he could have written his own ticket...as far as committee assignments, and getting credit for his seniority. However, the GOP faces a tougher Senate cycle in 2016, so adding another seat to the caucus is a good thing..
I know that McIntyre would have won if he were a Republican, but I am GLAD to have David Rouzer as my next Congressman, Great guy, and actually I helped him in the Republican Primary!
Blue Dog Democrats. They are now extinct.
Nancy Pelosi’s caucus is ideologically leftist. There is no moderate leavening.
Congress has the purse strings now. EPA is going back in its bowl. Believe me.
IRS is probably quaking in its piss-filled boots too.
Good advice.
Lets hope that the official law enforcement investigation by Sheriff Joe’s team on Obama’s birth certificate and related info can gain some ground now. They have been looking for someone in congress to investigate the information they have.
Jumped ship to become a Democrat and lost his re-election bid.
If Joe Manchin wants to switch, he should resign and ask voters to re-elect him as a Republican.
No one likes a turncoat.
Nothing much is going to change. The GOP leadership has no interest in any serious reductions in federal spending, entitlement reform, etc. Once again, grassroots conservatives will be betrayed and become disillusioned. The GOP elite will pull out all the stops for Jeb Bush or Mitt Romney or some other “safe” candidate.
Want to prove your loyalty? Be the 60th vote.
I fully concur.
I saw no reason to vote. I’m not voting Republican at any price.
When Republicans govern like Democrats, the Democrats have already won.
Dems switching parties is old hat and now mostly meaningless.
If the election had been a tepid one, I would agree.
This was a ‘last chance’ election for this system of government. Period.
If they don’t get this, someone is going to end up dead. That’s what happens when 1 in 5 to 1 in 4 people in the US can’t find work. More true when the work is going to illegal immigrants bearing Polio.
This is why I fervently pray the GOP starts with such a bill, as their test of Obama's vaunted pledge to work with Congress.
