Never underestimate the power of Senate Republicans to look 'statesmanlike' and cave. They make idiot-proof an oxymoron. They couldn't pour sand out of a boot with instructions written on the heel.

If you add all their IQ's together, you might reach room temperature.

Robert Byrd is the current senator making the most sense, and he's been in the grave for a year.

Not that I have anything against the US Congress.

Stupid barstids.

Mitch McConnel only need say one word in the Senate: RECIPROCITY!

LOL- We are talking about the republican party. They will never do it and if some try, McCain and Graham will stop them and apologize to the dems.

lol. Are we thinking of the same GOP. I seem to remember to us agreeing to “power sharing” last time we took control of the Senate. Or maybe I’m mistaken?

Not if we have martial law, elections are suspended, and a communist takeover happens. Reid knows that if we have elections the dems will be wiped out of power in the Senate, so him being willing to do this at this point is not a good sign. What does he know?

If only that were true. Usually Rs are too “nice” or too busy “reaching across the aisle” and don’t stand up to the dims no matter what. Then the Rs are oh so surprised when the dims walk all over them every chance they get. We really need to elect conservatives that are tough enough to stand toe to toe with the dims and give them a dose of their medicine.

No, that's not how it works. When the GOP takes over the Senate in 2012, Democrats will put on a show about how dangerous it is for a simple majority to have that much power in the Senate. They will pontificate about the necessity of having a filibuster rule. They will paint Republicans as power-hungry tyrants who wish to trample the rights of the minority. The MSM will launch a crusade calling for protection of the minority rights within the Senate. Eventually, someone will propose a rule where it takes a super-majority (such as 60 votes) to bring something up for a vote. And right on cue, the Republicans will cave and reinstate the filibuster rule to ensure that the Democrats are able to block any efforts towards ending Obamacare.

Yes, the Republicans in the Senate really are that stupid. Flashback to 2001 when the Republicans held a 50-50 split with the Democrats (with a Republican Vice President to settle all ties). The Dems argued that all committee assignments should be evenly split, and the number of aides assigned to each party should be evenly split as well. The GOP caved and gave them what they wanted, out of 'fairness'. Two months later, Jim Jeffords leaves the party, giving us a 49-50 split with Democrats. Even though Democrats still didn't have a true majority, they took control of all committees and shifted the internal Senate budgets to favor the Democrats.

Democrats cannot be trusted - EVER! If Reid changes the rule, then it needs to remain that way when Republicans take control.
