First, Republicans MUST have more than 50 per cent in either the House or Senate. It doesn't matter how liberal a Republican is or how conservative is a Democrat--it's that party affiliation that matters. WE either have the majority, or we are dead in the water, just like what we have now in the Senate.

Besides, even the most liberal Republican will vote Republican in most crunch situations. If they vote with us 50% if the time, that's a lot better than zero per cent.

It's that majority that counts--it means EVERYTHING.

We must do everything possible to stop Democrats from having a majority. Right now, Reid controls the Senate, I'd much rather have McConnell.

There is no majority if the Republican always votes with the Democrats

"Besides, even the most liberal Republican will vote Republican in most crunch situations."

Are you kidding me ? We had Chafee in RI who was voting identical to Hillary Clinton, 90% leftist. If you're not electing a Conservative, you're not electing someone who will advance that agenda.
