Remember when the Dems began filibustering Bush's judicial nominees and there was talk of the Reps using the nuclear option? The Reps got cold feet, which spawned the Gang of 14 headed by McCain and Lieberman to get certain nominees thru the process.

The Dems have no compunction about using raw power to force what they want thru. They did it with Obamacare forcing it thru the Senate with just a majority needed for a phony budget reconciliation motion. It is time for the Reps to fight or retreat.

yep What I think about most of those elected, is that they really won’t be affected by all the garbage being put in place by this Administration. In the end, a la my two Senators, McShamnesty (whom I did not vote for in the Repub primary. I voted for JD Hayworth) and McFlake don’t really care about their constituents. They both are wealthy enough, and have enough power, they will be fine. It’s the rest of us that won’t be fine and are being destroyed.
