And blocking the GOP initiatives will annoy their base how?

Depends upon which ones. There are a lot of bills that were shelved that have widespread support, but we’re shelved so that Obama didn’t have to act against them but could pretend they didn’t exist. Voting against these or filibustering can be used against them.

The Contract with America was these types of bills. Most ended up passing, several unanimously - including one the Dems filibustered for 3 days before voting unanimously for.

For example? I can think of only one or two that might fall into that category - Keystone and the Medical Equipment Tax. Anything else that the Dems filibuster will just thrill the base no end.

The current Republican leadership couldn't come up with a game plan if their lives depended on it.
