this guy is an idiot.
you need 2/3 to override an obama veto.
that means you need to win 100 seats in the house and all 15 democrat seats in the senate and you need coleman to beat franken.
it ain’t goin’ happen.

> it ain’t goin’ happen. It might, if the GOP decided, on a partywide and nationwide basis, that no RINOs would be candidates in the next election -- i.e., that conservative GOP'ers would be the only candidates.
I'm not saying that's going to happen. And even if it were done, there's no 100% guarantee that it would work as hoped. But hell, it sure would be nice to see conservatism tried, just once.

Yep, and ONLY the Congress can initiate a spending bill.
He can veto, and the House could simply NOT send another bill. Not a single one.
