Irrelevant. Once PR becomes a state, new elections will be held.

First of all, being 'republicans' doesn't mean a darn thing. Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, Mitt Romney, Arlen Specter, Charlie Christ ... need I type more? Who can forget John McCain? All good and trustworthy conservatives, no?

Secondly, any group with the word 'progressive' in their vocabulary has to be examined with a microscope. You do know what a progressive is, don't you? Progressives will also lie at the drop of a hat if it will advance their agenda in the long run.
