If they can’t filibuster a toxic mediocrity like Kagan, forget it.

We live in a banana republic, and they’re Banana Republicans.

“Senior Senate Republicans” never were into ANY heavy lifting. Never want to get thier hands dirty I guess.

WIMPS! Sarah Palin takes on Obama on every issue and when one of the Senators gets around to speaking up, he sounds like a weak and watered down echo chamber of her, IF she hasn’t taken too much heat from the WH for ripping The One and his Marxist policies.

I think there is a very real possibility the Repubs could win control of the Senate in 2010. Isn’t it funny how this MSM article mirrors earlier MSM articles that stated the Repubs could never pick up the House in 2010? I don’t read that anymore.

Me too. I am furious.

Those damn entrenched incumbents.

They don’t have any inclination to FIGHT.

This shouldn’t surprise many people, because with very few exceptions the Republicans hadn’t determined how to govern by 2006, after taking control of Congress in 1994.

Why lead, why rock the boat, why set goals? Heck, so much easier to just go-along-get-along.

You’re right.

Kagan has no business on SCOTUS. Red diaper baby and only 50 years of age!

If they are not ready to push and fight for the Majority and lead when they have it. Why Should I waste my time voting for them. Lets find somebody else that understand the future of our country is at stake and we can elect them instead.

They’re entrenched fossils - worthless and harmful to our side.

Useful idiots for the other side.

I despise them all.

If they can take CA, WA and WI, they can do it. Those states right now are very close.

Sad thing is they could easily have taken a majority this year if they hadn’t blown so many seats and had terrible luck in almost every race in 2006 and ‘08. Nice going, American voters! Anyway, a shift of only a few thousand votes in a few states in the last 2 cycles and there would be about 45 or more GOP senators now. So Reid would have been out as majority leader one way or the other next Jan. Now it’s going to be extremely difficult to gain 10 seats. Even if they do we can count on Castle, Kirk, and maybe some others to join the “moderates” quite often.

Good to know, but if the dolts would filibuster Kagan,

they’d give voters something to get excited about!

FIGHT? I don’t see any evidence that they are breathing!
