Not following you. The post was in response to a comment about republicans controling the senate. If your can't get cooperation from one of your own senators (regardless of his reasons for voting the way he does or making the alliances he does) isn't control. That's what my counterpoint was intended to convey.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg, an avowed Marxist, was confirmed by the US Senate in a 97 to 3 vote. The Republican Party sold out long ago. I think it's beyond hope.
