This guy must have been born last Tuesday. That’s the only explanation I can think of for his lack of knowledge about how Senate Republicans will react to this.
There won’t be any blowback. ‘Bipartisanship’ will still mean that the Dems get most or all of what they want. That’s because the guys who are supposed to be on our side aren’t actually on our side. Anyone who doesn’t know this by now is either dumb as dishwater or not paying attention.
Couldn’t have happened to a nicer bunch of communist traitors.
Don’t worry, McCain is on the case ahahahahahahaahahahhaaha
Reid REALLY screwed himself and the DEMs over - NEXT time the GOP has the Senate and the WH - well, they say that payback is a bitch ...
What will they do then? Write a strongly worded letter? Complain about the media not being on their side? Cry about it in their tanning beds?
I’ll tell you exactly what they’ll do. Nothing. They’ll probably change the rule back and then cede MORE power to the Democrat minority in order to supposedly look like they’re being ‘fair’.
Wake up. It’s kabuki theater.
And you know all that will happen is Dems will whine ‘What about the rights of the minority’ and the Pubs will wipe their tears, pat them on the back and go “There, there.”
Since November 4th we have gotten call after call where I say “hello” then have to ask, “Who is this?” before the caller identifies themselves as “Republican National Committee”.
I reply “Not interested, thank you” & hang up. Screw ‘em.
Yep, the moment we swear in a conservative president, assuming we own the Senate and the house... We run our agenda flat out. No limits, no compromise. None. If the rats don’t like it, they can go pound sand, even over the smallest issue. We give them nothing.
I think I’ve got all their numbers blocked at this point, so they don’t bother me anymore. If I am going to give anything, it’ll be to the SCF OR Freedom works.
Anyone who doubts you need only look at the 2012 election's voter fraud. There was no call from the GOP leadership to investigate this fraud. No investigation, no protests, no nothing.
But I will tell you one thing the GOP leadership did do. They kept on collecting their paychecks.
If the Republicans get a majority in the house and Senate they will not vote to repeal Obamacare mark my words…
I think they’ve started sharpening the tines on their own fork today...
It’s not Manchin’s seat in WV. It’s the retiring Rockefeller’s
Yes, their bought off but for a handful.
Likely because doing so would be pointless. Obama will veto.
What they do have is a much better position to defund it, or at least parts of it. Without the senate, the president will be the lone defender of the Obamacastle, and we’ll put it under a damn good siege.
Yeah. That'll happen.
On the off chance that the democrat vote fraud machine doesn't work in the 2014 elections and the republicans take the senate, the democrats will just whine about the unfairness of it all.
The republicans will roll over and give them back the filibuster.
Look up "power sharing" that the republicans always agree to when proposed by the minority party dems, but the dems always reject when proposed by the minority party reublicans).
When all the powers are liberals, what makes you think we will ever see a GOP majority again?
They did this so they can absolutely pass anything and everything the senate votes on. GOP can’t do a damned thing to stop anything now.
What about those checks and balances now?
It’s called the second amendment.
I admire your optimism.
I think the Republican Party will continue to roll over, play dead and fritter away freedom for perks and privilege.
I see no way out of this mess that doesn’t involve enormous tragedy.
