"Democrats Confirm They Will Use 'Nuclear Option' on Healthcare"

"You boys and girls better enjoy the next eight months, while you can!"

If the Democrats try to pass this POS using reconciliation, and either succeed or fail after a huge fuss, their losses in November will be massive.

The turnover in seats in 1994 was 54 in the House and 8 in the Senate, and while this appeared to be unprecedented, it actually was not. In the 1920s, 40s and 50s such turnover was not common but was neither uncommon. I don't have time to check but I recall 80-90 seats one year in the House and 15 or so in the Senate.

If a furious voting public turned over 80 seats in the House and 12 in the Senate, this would not be enough to overturn the legislation itself but no doubt the Democrats would leap to have just such an opportunity. That would certainly be the coup de grace to our that leftist POS that we call a President.
