Let's also not forget the RINO factor. I wouldn't trust Susan Collins to vote the right way on any issue unless Jesse Helms sat behind her with a loaded revolver pointed at her (empty) head. And no, I have neither forgotten nor forgiven her for her behaviour during impeachment.

Denying the Democrats is one thing. Making the majority work is another.

I guess I'm naive; that hadn't occurred to me at all. I was thinking the pubs wouldn't want to impede their own president's agenda, even if they couldn't stand up to Slick at the height of his popularity.

Do you think their recalcitrance during impeachment was motivated more by the herd mentality or by true believerism?

That's why we need a three or four seat majority in the Senate. The suspense is killing me.
