Backdoor Senate bill like the Bailout. BOHICA!

[shadeaud]

[mnehring]

Don Bama (the Barakfather) is going to make them an offer they can’t refuse.

[wordsofearnest]

Seeing what it takes to buy their vote.

[qrstuv]

I wonder if they’ll all fit in the trunk of a Buick??

[Recon Dad]

Here’s your choice, get behind this or...else.

Oh and if your running for your seat next year your dead meat!

I was in Nebraska last week and the amount of direct TV pressure on Ben Nelso to vote against Obamacare, to support a filibuster, etc was impressive. He’s gotta cave if he likes being in Congress. States like Nebraska will support conservative Democrats who take good care of the farmers back home, but reject this radical crap and are very protective of the elderly.

Mark Warner is going to hear Obama and his running dog lackeys tell him why ".... it will be good to be the only elected Democrat from Virginia in a few years..... you'll get to speak for the whole party."

[LeonardFMason]

I hope they don’t get the old “necklacing” threat against them made famous by Mrs. Mandela.

[Uncle Ike]

” Seeing what it takes to buy their vote. “

Naaahhh... No RINOs in the group.....

[dead]

My wallet just screamed.

[xcamel]

The “Chicago Hammer” is coming down.

[eeriegeno]

Independent Democrat Joe Lieberman of Connecticut

INDEPENDENT DEMOCRAT??? What the hell is that?

I feel sorry for old Joe Liieberman; he can't keep himself away from the people who dumped on his head!!!!!

[depressed in 06]

The less virulent of the fascicrats.

[BAW]

summoned to the woodshed . .

[NRA2BFree]

Many of those are Blue Dog Democrats! He’s going to confront them. They’ll cave, and then we’ll have socialized medicine!

[shankbear]

Woodshed. Obama is down on his knees doing no telling what to convince some of these senators.

[sissyjane]

I wonder if they get beer in the backyard?
