Even the Democrats know that a silenced majority will become an angry majority. When people feel they are not being heard or represented, they vote out the controlling party. (Which is what happened in 2006/2008.)

It would be foolish to silence conservatism if the Dems want to stay in power.

Pursuing this avenue will also cause division within. It is the perfect opportunity for a nobody Democrat Congressman, with strong leadership ability, to rise to fame championing “Free Speech”.

Once the immigration bills are passed next year, there won't be a next election for Republicans.

BTW, what happened in 2008 was a media coup. The stock market "coincidentally" imploded just before the election, the Obama media blamed it on the Republicans and the mushy middle voted their 401Ks.

Of course, the Obama media "forgot" to mention the part about the new Democrat supermajority confiscating their 401Ks...
