66 or 70 Republican Senators? Why not 90?
Why not 400 Republican Congressmen, while we're at it?
This moving of the bar invites GOP unaccountability.
We were told in 2000 that we needed to take back the Senate to confirm conservative judges. Then the Democrats fought back. Our party wrung their hands in fury.
Now, we're told we need a veto-proof supermajority, or a rino-veto-proof superdupermajority.
Every election, politicians need to fear for their jobs. If a politician doesn't feel that fear, there is no leverage over him. Which voters do politicians fear the most?
The ones that make or break most elections, and those aren't committed, hell or high water voters, those are taken for granted.
Once a politician knows your vote is in the bag, he'll put golf spikes in your back to get to a swing voter.
Getting rid of Democrats is only half the battle; the other half must be fought simultaneously, and that is to get Republicans to act like they have enough of a spine to stand up for the values of their constituents.
