The Republicans will reintroduce the Queensberry rules to Harry Reid's knife fight.

Odd, this particular report “from the GOP” (establishment - of course!)

Why would “they” release a public statement DECREASING or DECRYING their influence after the election IF they (the GOP) would get a majority?

Self-defeating - AGAIN- it is not? Or is that the intent?

A democrat “self-defeating”R stunt? “Wait guys! We are going to shoot ourselves in the foot if we get get elected!” way of discouraging repubbie voters AHEAD of the election as a democrat “stop the turnout” effort supported by Obama’s ABCNNBCBS pressed corpse?

The GOP had better make Whorehouse Harry look like a monk if they are the majority.

Play dirty, strike first, take no prisoners, and get an attorney general enen more sleazy, poorly educated, slimy, and crooked than Holder.

Oops, forgot, the Holderdork is as low as a human life form can go.

OK, almost as sleazy.

I remember the last time they had control of everything.

They didn’t do anything of lasting value back then, either.

FOGOP.

The GOP whigged out long ago.

There is no political solution to our problem.

Thanks for posting the article. Too bad no one’s reading anything but the header. This is psy ops just like the media tried in 2010.

Ah yes, the A$$ Press is already diminishing the importance of Republicans controlling both Houses.

Hey Babington, how about the fact 0bummer can no longer stack the federal courts with leftists?

Why of course their will be “limitations” of a Senate filled with gutless RINOS interested only in being re-elected to their elitist positions with all the cool free stuff like box tickets to the Washington Foreskins, free meals, free international travel, and the adulation of the ignorant peasantry.

Just use the Nuclear Option which can be renamed the “Reid Rule.”

Oh, no no no no.. Filibuster is there to empower liberals. That a couple strange conservatives dared use that power was not acceptable, therefore it was taken from them, with the clear understanding that once the liberals no longer have the majority (HAHAHAHAH) that the power would of course be restored, as working together across party lines is something the senate always does. Unless it is for a conservative issue, then the conservatives are just obstructionists.

What’s yours is mine, and what’s mine is mine.
