How so? The House can cut off all spending for Iraq and spend 2 years on Impeachment proceedings. That would be a disaster.

They aren't going to be able to actually pass anything meaningful with a 1 - 2 seat majority. If they start impeachment proceedings, it would blow up in their faces big time.

Again, I hope we win this cycle, but if it is just going to be 1 or 2 seats either way, then there are a few strategic advantages associated with NOT having to run things without a working majority.

That is all I am saying.

You forget that the Committee heads can decide what legislation gets out of the committee and to a floor vote.
That's where the real power is.

I understand your hope of winning. I just wanted to address this "Neil Bortzian" type of logic for letting dems back in power.
Has anyone been listening to Rush long enough to remember when he did a parody of this sort. It was one of those times he did a "fake" that was just too good, sort of like his KO(O)KS (Keep Our Kids Safe) campaign against soccer.
